Given all of the cyberattacks today, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) has become more important than ever! Yesterday, Dave Ruel of Hanzo published an article applying data loss prevention to eDiscovery and internal investigations!
Dave’s post Better Together: How Data Loss Prevention Can Shed Light on Ediscovery and Internal Investigations goes a step beyond applying data loss prevention to eDiscovery – it discusses the two disciplines along the same terms as peanut butter and jelly, burgers and fries and even Hall and Oates!
Before you say, I Can’t Go for That (No Can Do), consider this:
DLP is critical by itself for helping you protect your company against the unauthorized leakage of sensitive information. And eDiscovery techniques slice through the vast data your business generates to reveal the key facts that can determine the outcome of a litigation matter or an internal investigation.
But when you combine DLP and eDiscovery, you gain even deeper insights.
Think Dave is Out of Touch? Well, you can use rule sets to detect over 100 types of sensitive information, including bank routing numbers, credit cards, protected health information (PHI), secrets, passwords, and API keys. That has ramification across the board and is truly an example of applying data loss prevention to eDiscovery and internal investigations!
