Data Loss Prevention
Data loss prevention (DLP) software detects potential data breaches/data ex-filtration transmissions and prevents them by monitoring, detecting and blocking sensitive data while in use (endpoint actions), in motion (network traffic), and at rest (data storage).
The terms "data loss" and "data leak" are related and are often used interchangeably. Data loss incidents turn into data leak incidents in cases where media containing sensitive information is lost and subsequently acquired by an unauthorized party.
Network Security
Network security is a set of technologies that protects the usability and integrity of a company's infrastructure by preventing the entry or proliferation within a network of a wide variety of potential threats.
Network Security protects your network and data from breaches, intrusions and other threats. This is a vast and overarching term that describes hardware and software solutions as well as processes or rules and configurations relating to network use, accessibility, and overall threat protection.
Endpoint Security
Endpoint security or endpoint protection is an approach to the protection of computer networks that are remotely bridged to client devices. The connection of endpoint devices such as laptops, tablets, mobile phones, Internet-of-things devices, and other wireless devices to corporate networks creates attack paths for security threats. Endpoint security enables businesses to protect devices that employees use for work purposes or servers that are either on a network or in the cloud from cyber threats.
The endpoint security space has evolved away from limited antivirus software and into a more advanced, comprehensive defense. This includes next-generation antivirus, threat detection, investigation and response, and other considerations to face evolving cyber threats.
Multi-Factor Authentication
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a security mechanism that requires users to provide multiple forms of identification or verification before granting access to a system or application. It is a way to ensure that only authenticated users gain access to sensitive data or systems and prevent unauthorized access from attackers. By using more than one form of authentication, MFA provides an additional layer of security and makes it harder for attackers to gain unauthorized access. Even if one authentication factor is compromised, the attacker still needs to bypass the other factors to gain access.
Overall, multi-factor authentication is an effective way to protect sensitive data, systems, and applications from cyber-attacks and reduce the risk of data breaches.
