How to keep your data secure | ZDNet

▤ Summary

This is due to the fact that a large majority of companies have strict policies for managing desktops and laptops, but do not have endpoint security solutions in place that log removable device connections to the network. To mitigate the risks portable devices pose to the enterprise without infringing on employee productivity, IT administrators should incorporate endpoint security software into its DLP strategy. Start small, grow bigger: As the implementation of robust DLP solutions that include device control, encryption and content inspection take time to complete, develop a short term strategy to enforce policies at a minimum. In the future, to meet these demands, vendors will be challenged to develop a complete DLP solution—including content inspection, encryption and device and port control—that can be centrally-managed via one console and one client. Additionally, from a data leakage prevention standpoint, it is no longer enough to manage what devices and ports are being used to access corporate information stored on PCs and laptops.
