Whether it’s customer records, financial data, or intellectual property, companies generate and handle massive amounts of information every day. Sensitive data often resides in unstructured formats—such as documents, emails, and spreadsheets—making it difficult to locate, secure, and manage effectively. Without robust data protection measures, organizations risk non-compliance with regulations, reputational damage, and costly data breaches. Companies must adopt comprehensive data discovery, classification,...

Introduction Today, the majority of digitally stored information consists of unstructured data. This includes office documents, CAD/CAE files, PDFs, emails, images, videos, blogs, customer support chat logs, and social media. What is Unstructured Data? Unstructured data is information lacking a fixed format or organization, making it challenging to manage and protect using traditional security measures. This data can include text, images, video, and email, often stored in various locations and formats. Unstructured data...

Introduction The widespread adoption of on-premises, multi-cloud, and hybrid infrastructures has led to data sprawl, where sensitive information such as PII, intellectual property, and business-critical data is scattered across multiple environments. This dispersion of data has created a surge in unmonitored and unmanaged dark data. Enterprises now face heightened security risks, including data breaches, unauthorized access, and compliance violations. To mitigate these risks, businesses require a comprehensive approach to track, visualize, and understand data...

Last month, Ron Arden sat down with ISMG’s Chris Riotta to discuss how the traditional location-centric approach to data security has proven inadequate as technology changes and employees increasingly work remotely with sensitive files on laptops, external drives, and cloud platforms. The widespread adoption of hybrid work has exposed critical gaps in how organizations track and secure sensitive data, particularly unstructured files that employees access across multiple devices and locations. This shift requires a...

Introduction Ransomware is malicious software designed to encrypt a victim’s data or computer system and block access. The perpetrators then demand a ransom, typically in cryptocurrency, to restore access or provide a decryption key. The malware infiltrates systems via phishing emails, malicious downloads, or exploiting software vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, paying the ransom does not guarantee data recovery and may encourage further criminal activities. Organizations need to understand the mechanism of ransomware, adopt preventive measures, and...
