Q1. How big is the international DLP market today, and what is driving these cutting-edge technologies?
Until a few years ago, cybersecurity was a concern only for market players. Today, in the era of digital transformation, everyone is paying attention.
Addressing cybersecurity is no longer just about protecting against viruses, Trojans and spyware, as it was at the beginning of this century. There is a framework for activities such as maintaining compliance, enforcing Zero Trust policies, preventing ransomware attacks, avoiding targeted phishing, and ensuring web applications are not riddled with vulnerabilities.
Many companies have decided to implement a data loss prevention solution either proactively or because of a recent security incident. Businesses should also use data loss prevention solutions as part of their compliance. (BFSI, Pharma, Healthcare, IT, etc.)
Q2. How has Covid-19 and WFH impacted the data security landscape? What security challenges are you seeing, especially in India?
With many businesses forced to adopt work-from-home policies quickly, there are many challenges related to data protection and regulatory compliance.
India has seen an increase in the number and frequency of recent data breaches in India, proving that organizations in all sectors are vulnerable to cyberattacks.
Recently reported breaches have raised concerns for both governments and businesses. India needs to not only strengthen its legal framework for handling cybersecurity incidents, but also improve protection of critical infrastructure, build attack capabilities, and educate its citizens on the safe use of digital assets. I have.
Q3. The concept of data loss prevention is unfamiliar to most Indian organizations, so how do you plan to address this issue?
Realizing that security awareness has increased significantly over the past few years, businesses are now actively looking for DLP solutions.
Over the past few years, our mission has been to educate companies on how DLP can help them through webinars, articles, interviews, and social media.
Q4. What are the factors driving DLP technology?
There are two main factors to consider. security and compliance. Some companies fall under specific compliances such as RBI compliance, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and are mandated to deploy DLP solutions. Other companies are looking to add DLP solutions as they want to fill gaps in their security stack.
Q5. What do you think about the Indian cybersecurity market from a technology perspective?
The Indian market has made great strides over the past few years, with most companies starting to implement powerful technology stacks. Organizations are educated on security issues and understand how different technologies work together and what their roles are.
