Traditional data prevention tools (DLP) do not keep up with the realities of how modern business uses SAAS apps.
Companies today are heavily relying on Saas platforms, such as Google Workspace, Salesforce, Slack and Generative AI Tools, which significantly changes the method of processing sensitive information. In these circumstances, data rarely are traditional files or crossing the ways that can control the final dots or DLP network tools. However, most companies continue to use Legacy DLP Systems, leaving critical space spaces.
New White Book, DLP rethinking for the SAAS era: Why DLP, focused on the browser is a new mandateIt clearly determines why modern DLP methods are fighting to ensure modern Saas workflows. He also studies how the browser safety solves these gaps, focusing on security efforts where user interactions are in the browser.
Why are the traditional DLP tools not enough
Traditional DLP solutions have been built on a simpler time when there are mostly sensitive data when the files are moved through monitoring end points or networks. Today, SAAS data does not follow these ways, making these methods ineffective. Here’s how the inconsistency creates significant vulnerabilities:
- 70% Business data leaks are now occurring directly in the browser, invisible to the final or DLP network systems.
- 53% Data leaks provide “invisible” actions such as copying data to chat app or text tips rather than traditional file transfers.
- Over 50% Employees use SAAS apps that are not laid by them, significantly increasing the potential leaks.
Browser as a new front line
Sensitive data today is mostly in the browser sessions. Joint editing, messaging in real time and interaction with AI’s tools occurs in the browser, making the browser a critical checkpoint for data protection.
Five DLP reasons focused on the browser are essential
Organizations now have to transfer security attention to the browser. That’s why DLP, focused on the browser is crucial:
- Data is always used: The data remains actively manipulated in SAAS supplements, requiring permanent browser monitoring in real time.
- Invisible Risks: Copying confidential information to chat -tools or AI tips often goes unnoticed by traditional solutions.
- Difficult Identity Problems: Employees often switch between personal and corporate accounts within one browser session, complicating traditional identity control.
- Shadow Saas and AI risks: Employees regularly use unauthorized SAAS or AI tools, creating blind spots for outdated safety systems.
- Risky browser extensions: Malicious or over -resolution browser enlargement can quietly steal sensitive data bypassing traditional controls.
DLP, focused on the browser: Solving modern gaps in safety
The browser’s approach is effectively solving these problems:
- Constantly monitoring of real -time user action directly in the browser, including interaction with a copy and chat.
- Clearly identification and separation of corporate and personal activity in Saas apps.
- Automatic detection and classification of sensitive data in the browser session, which immediately responds to the security -based security.
