data discovery
EFFECTIVELY IDENTIFY
SENSITIVE DATA
You may not realize how much of your data
requires protection, or that your most valuable, sensitive information may be vulnerable.
Also, data protection regulations cover a
significant range of information including:
• Personally identifiable information (PII)
• Financial data
• Health data
• Payment card information
• Intellectual property
• Emerging data risk and privacy categories
ADM empowers you to identify all your sensitive
data, based on a variety of use cases and search
criteria, to ensure you’re not exposed.
Do You Know...
-
Where your sensitive data is stored in data repositories, on premises, and in the cloud?
-
What data is protected and how?
-
If your sensitive data is exposed to risk from insiders and third parties?
-
Who has access to sensitive data and how you’re regulating that access?
ADM can answer these questions and help you find and secure your most sensitive and vulnerable data.
