Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention – TDL

As regulations and corporate standards place increasing demands on IT to ensure safe data handling, deploying necessary protective solutions can seem daunting. Some data loss prevention (DLP) products require substantial effort to deploy and typically have large ongoing consulting costs. These products leave it up to IT to know about all the data that needs to be protected. But it’s impossible for IT to identify all of the sensitive data, interpret the regulations, and translate them into effective policies. When faced with this dilemma, many companies simply fall back to “good enough” solutions that don’t provide basic protection and offer little insight into ongoing data-related risk.

Key Advantages

1. Unified Data Loss Prevention
2. Fully deployable and manageable via McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator(McAfee ePO) software, which enables sharing of common policies and provides incident and case management for network and endpoint DLP.
3. Users are empowered with data protection manual classification. Real-time popups and a self-remediation tool help increase employee data protection awareness.
4. McAfee Total Protection for DLP protects data wherever it resides—on premises, on endpoints, or in the cloud.

McAfee Data Loss Prevention Solution Components Provide Everything You Need.

McAfee DLP Discover

Helps you find your data on-premise or in the cloud.

Understanding where sensitive data resides is the first step to securing it. McAfee DLP Discover simplifies the discovery with a simple three-step process—inventory, categorisation, and remediation. Unlike other solutions that expect you to know exactly what content you want to protect and the locations where it’s likely to be stored, McAfee DLP Discover does the heavy lifting by rapidly categorising large amounts of unclassified data—so that only relevant files are being examined and remediated.

The three steps are:

Inventory – Creates an inventory of assets across the organization and performs analytics on the metadata only for speed.

Categorisation – Classifies content into buckets and performs analytics on the classified content.

Remediation – Scans the classified data for policy violations, remediates, and registers information.

With the new data classification capabilities in McAfee DLP Discover, you now have a scalable and rapid way to classify your data, scan your data, and automate remediation tasks.

McAfee DLP Prevent

Enforces policies for information leaving the network through email, webmail, instant messaging (IM), wikis, blogs, portals, and Web 2.0 technologies.

Ensure the security of the information you know you must protect—Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, and financial data—and the information you want to protect, such as highly valuable intellectual property. McAfee DLP Prevent allows you to take a variety of remediation actions, including encrypting, redirecting, quarantining, and blocking—so you can ensure compliance with regulations governing the privacy of sensitive information and reduce the data risk to your business.

McAfee DLP Prevent offers standards-based integration with network gateways:

Enforces policies for information leaving the network through email, webmail, IM, wikis, blogs, portals, HTTP/HTTPS, and FTP transfers Integration with email gateways is done via SMTP, while web traffic is inspected using the internet content adaptation protocol (ICAP).

McAfee DLP Monitor

McAfee DLP Monitor performs real-time scanning and analysis of network traffic.

Through detailed classification, indexing, and storage of all network traffic—not just information that violates its real-time policies—the McAfee DLP Monitor appliance allows you to quickly leverage historical information to understand what data is sensitive, how it is being used, who is using it, and where it is going. This gives you the ability to build effective and accurate policies the first time and allows you to anticipate how changes in your environment might impact the security of the sensitive data it contains. Additionally, you can perform rapid investigations based on the historical data to ensure that you leave no stone unturned:

Scan and analyse information in real time – Integrated into the network using a switched port analyser (SPAN) or tap
port, the McAfee DLP Monitor appliance performs real-time scanning and analysis of network traffic at line speeds.

Discover unknown risks – Through detailed classification, indexing, and storage of all network traffic, not just information that matches
existing rules, the McAfee DLP Monitor appliance allows you to quickly build a deep understanding of where data is, how it is being used, who is using it, and where it is going, helping you anticipate new risks as the environment changes.

McAfee DLP Endpoint

Prevents data loss on PCs and Macs alike.

McAfee DLP Endpoint lets you instantly monitor and prevent confidential data loss at work, at home, in the cloud, and on the road. McAfee DLP Endpoint protects your organisation from the risks of financial loss, brand damage, lost customers, competitive disadvantage, and regulatory noncompliance. With McAfee DLP Endpoint, you can quickly and easily monitor real-time events, apply centrally managed security policies to control how employees use and transfer sensitive data, and generate detailed forensics reports with minimal impact to your daily business activities. Prevent data loss and leakage when data is modified, copied, pasted, printed, or transmitted while enabling its flexible use. Complete visibility is at your fingertips with these capabilities:

1. Comprehensive incident reporting and monitoring gathers all needed data—such as sender, recipient, timestamp, and network evidence—for proper analysis, investigation and audit, remediation, and risk assessment.
2. Crawling of sensitive data at rest on local hard drives with granular targeting by user and network group.
3. Enhanced virtualised support allows for flexible per-user policies for better control of the data flowing to shared terminals.

Comprehensive content management is also provided:

1. Control and block confidential data copied to USB devices, flash drives, Apple iPods, and other removable storage devices, including optical media and hard copy. The removable storage device definitions now can support Mac OS X-only, Microsoft Windows-only, or both.
2. Integration of DLP and digital rights management (DRM) extends protection beyond your network.
3. Manual classification empowers users to classify documents at the time of creation; alleviates administrative burden.
