Real-Life Data Protection Successes and Failures

Optimising Data Classification for Your Business: A Tailored Approach to Comprehensive Security.

In the dynamic landscape of cybersecurity, an increasing number of vendors promise all-encompassing solutions to address your security needs. While the concept of a “one-size-fits-all” platform may initially appear enticing in terms of business efficiency, the reality often falls short of expectations. These tools, designed for the standard organisations, frequently do not align with your specific requirements.  

By adopting a best-of-breed data classification solution, you can ensure a tailored, precisely configured solution that accommodates your organisation's unique needs, whilst offering a wide array of integrations. During this enlightening webinar, we will explore the following key themes:  

 - The necessity of specialised providers to fulfil the increasing granular data labelling demands mandated by data protection regulations.  

- The important of sub-categorisation in developing a meaningful and effective data classification policy.  

- Why high-level classification policies often fall short of meeting the compliance needs of both the organisation and regulators. 

- Strategies to optimise returns on your technology investments whilst ensuring robust data classification.  

Watch this webcast to  learn about the intricacies of tailoring your data classification approach to enhance your organisation’ security and compliance whilst optimising technology investments.

Go Beyond One-Size-Fits-All Data Classification: Protect Data You Care about

The sheer volume of data created and exchanged daily creates complex challenges for organizations to monitor, audit, and secure that data effectively. This complexity not only increases risk but can greatly hinder efficiency. While the volume of data has increased, so has the value of this data. The loss or misuse of data can result in substantial financial and reputational costs. Now, more than ever, organizations need to know what data they have, where it lives, how it is shared, and who has access to it.

So how can organizations maintain better control of its data exchanges while still providing efficiency for users and trading partners? Join this discussion to learn about the best practices, strategies, and tools today’s organizations are leveraging to combat challenges when it comes to streamlining and securing their data, including tactics for:

- Centralizing file transfers

Why Data Classification is the Cornerstone of Regulatory Compliance

In today’s cybersecurity market, we are seeing more vendors than before offering solutions which claim to cover all your security needs under one roof. Sure, from a business efficiency point of view this may seem like a very tempting offer – but in reality is it all too good to be true?
We already know that data classification is the crucial foundation to a solid data security foundation, so the question is, why would you want to build these foundations using a solution that simply isn’t going to be able to truly fulfil your needs into the future? With regulatory compliance requirements only growing globally, your organization needs to rely on specialist solutions in this key area that can grow alongside these requirements, and save you from making a costly mistake.
By using a best-of-breed data classification solution, you can guarantee a solution for your organization that is fully tailored to your exact needs, with a wide range of integrations, ensuring you are not trapped, or at the mercy of a provider who is in control of all your security solutions.

In this session you’ll learn:
- How data protection regulations are requiring more granular labelling requirements, which can only be achieved using a specialist provider
- Why you need to be sub-categorising your data to have an effective and meaningful data classification policy
- Why basic classification policies are often too high level either to meet the compliance needs of the business as a whole, or of the regulators
- That metadata needs to be flexible, leaving you open to integration options with best-of-breed solution providers across the data protection suite
- How limited product support can be from a non-specialist provider

Data Classification Take 30: Why You Need A Specialist Provider

Once you’ve got your classification policy set up, and a best-of-breed solution in place, you’ve taken the key first steps on your data security journey. But will the place that you start your classification journey be the place you end up? Likely not. Organisational needs evolve over time, whether that be down to new internal data handling policies, or regulatory compliance requirements. In turn, this means that your classification solution needs to be able to mature to meet these requirements. 

Ongoing, organisations need to consider the benefits of using classification to add extra context and knowledge. How can you mature your solution into something that truly works for your organisation, while also supporting the wider security ecosystem?

Join this webinar to:
• Learn how to reduce user burden, and empower employees
• Understand how you can grow your classification schema to leverage the full potential of information value
• Discover how you can easily integrate with downstream solutions such as DRM and DLP to support the data protection journey
• Learn how maturing your classification solution enhances business operations and intelligence

Data Classification Take 30: How To Mature Your Classification Solution

When you choose to use data classification that comes from a non-expert vendor, a basic classification tool is often the result. There will be no option to configure the software to fit actual business need or the way you want it to align to your data protection policy. Instead, organizations often find that they have to reduce down their business requirements in order to fit the policy into the software. Knowing how important it is to get data protection right, this should never be the case, and never will be using HelpSystems’ best-of-breed classification solutions.

You need the power to configure your data classification solution in a way that allows your classification policy to work just as the business requires, and with futureproofed flexibility to make changes as and when you need, which is why you need solution experts, not a “one-size-fits-all” vendor. 

Join this webinar to:
• Understand the importance of technical expertise when it comes to implementing your classification solution
• See how your classification configuration can seamlessly integrate with your other data security solutions, such as DLP, and DRM
• Learn best practices for testing your configuration
• Get expert tactical advice when it comes to deploying a data classification solution within your organization

Data Classification Take 30: How To Configure & Deploy A Classification Solution

Big data, data governance, and data management – these are just some of the everyday challenges organizations are facing when it comes to data security. When it comes to getting started with data classification, the most important thing your organization is going to need is a classification policy.

The purpose of a classification policy is to establish a framework within which to classify data based upon its sensitivity, value, importance, who should have access, etc. so that all organizational data can be appropriately protected and secured. While some organizations have taken steps to define their classification policy, most find it difficult to know where to start, or are wrestling with prioritization, importance, and organizational business processes. 

Join our experts in this webinar who will show you:
• How to get started with planning your data classification policy
• What your high level classification architecture should look like
• How to build your classification schema and policy workflow based on business requirements and stakeholder feedback 
• How to plan the implementation of your data classification policy throughout the organization, and if necessary, how you can phase this
• Examples of data classification policies being used by organizations
