ARMOR DSPM
Intelligent DSPM for the AI Era.
Understand what your data is, why it matters to the business, and whether it is compliant. Then classify it, protect it, and prove it.
What ARMOR DSPM Means for Your Organization
Communicate Risk in
Business Terms
Correlate data sensitivity with organizational structure, behavioral, and access history to produce risk signals that map directly to business exposure.
Faster remediation decisions
Board-ready reporting
Less time explaining, more time acting
Enforce Compliance
and Prove It
Compliance is not a reporting exercise. It is an enforcement and proof exercise. ARMOR DSPM enforces required controls and generates the audit trail regulators need before they ask.
Controls enforced automatically
Audit evidence generated continuously
Regulator-ready by default
Intelligent DSPM for the AI Enterprise
AI is rewriting the rules
Your data moves faster than legacy DSPMs can follow. AI agents, copilots, and pipelines read and act on enterprise data every second. Your current tool finds files. It does not tell you which exposures matter to the business, which regulations are at stake, or what to fix first.
ARMOR DSPM does by understanding what your data means. Business risk context CISO can take to the board. And native remediation that closes the loop from discovery to protection to proof.

Three Generations of DSPM
ARMOR DSPM operates on three layers of context simultaneously, and acts on all three.
Gen 1
Pattern Matching
Regex-based discovery. Right for its era, but a phone number looks like a credit card to a regex engine. High false-positive rates overwhelm security teams with noise instead of insight.
Gen 2
Trainable Classifiers
Machine learning trained on enterprise data. Better accuracy in narrow contexts, but time-to-value is measured in quarters. These tools require 500,000+ documents per classifier, and initial accuracy improves only after repeated retraining cycles.
Gen 3
LLM-Based
General-purpose AI that understands data in context. A genuine step forward, but most Gen 3 vendors are cloud-only, creating data sovereignty exposure, and none of them own a native remediation layer. Discovery without action is a longer list of problems, not a security program.
ARMOR DSPM
Intelligent DSPM
AI-native discovery that understands context and intent from day one. Sovereign-ready architecture where data never leaves the enterprise perimeter. Native remediation that flows from discovery to classification to persistent protection to proof.
Each DSPM generation solved discovery and stopped at the alert. The data map keeps getting sharper. The control plane is still missing, and AI just made the exposure surface unrecognizable. ARMOR was built to be that control plane.

Three Layers of Intelligence. One Automated Action.
Layer 1: Data Context
What the data itself is. ARMOR DSPM uses the Semantic Triad (Content + Context + Intent) to understand what a document means, not just what it contains. Self-hosted AI model runs entirely within a secure cloud environment. No external API calls. No sensitive data retention.
Layer 2: Enterprise Context
Who you are as an organization. Behavioral history, risk scoring, organizational structure, and EDRM audit trails turn a data signal into a business risk signal. Security leaders can communicate impact in language the board understands, prioritize remediation by actual business exposure, and make faster decisions about what to protect first.
Layer 3: Regulatory Context
The regulatory framework governing the data. GDPR, DPDP Act, NIS2, etc. ARMOR DSPM automatically identifies which regulations apply based on data type, jurisdiction, and sensitivity, then enforces the required controls and generates the audit evidence a regulator needs. Not compliance posture, but proof of compliance.
Purpose-Built for Continuous Data Intelligence
Unlike point-in-time scans, ARMOR DSPM establishes a living understanding of sensitive data that evolves as data moves, changes, and is consumed by both people and AI. It continuously ingests data, analyzes content, and derives context and intent, feeding Context-Aware Intelligence so every downstream control gets smarter over time.
This is not static awareness. It is continuous understanding that compounds in value as more of ARMOR is deployed.
Beyond Traditional DSPM
ARMOR DSPM transforms discovery from detection into protection that leads to security intelligence.
Traditional discovery and DSPM tools generate disconnected alerts and static inventories without a direct path to protection. You get file counts, but do not get business risk, regulatory exposure, or a path to remediation. Data cannot be confidently understood, protected, governed, or trusted for people or AI-driven workflows.
Instead of simply locating files, ARMOR DSPM:
- Continuously ingests data across the enterprise
- Analyzes content and derives context and intent through AI-native content analysis
- Correlates sensitivity, business relevance, and regulatory jurisdiction across all three context layers
- Translates data signals into prioritized business risk, so security leaders can act on impact, not volume
- Enables direct remediation through ARMOR DAC, ARMOR EDRM, and ARMOR AI-DLP
This creates an always-current intelligence layer designed to directly inform classification, protection, and compliance capabilities within the ARMOR platform.
Why ARMOR DSPM
ARMOR DSPM is architecturally different from traditional DSPM and discovery tools.
Where earlier generations stop, ARMOR continues.

Key Benefits
Intelligent Discovery
Intelligence starts here.
ARMOR DSPM derives context and intent through AI-native content analysis using the Semantic Triad: Content, Context, and Intent. Multiple models run in sequence, combining structured and unstructured analysis. No training period. AI works from day one because it was built to understand data semantics, not match patterns.
Sovereign-Ready Architecture
Private and sovereign-first DSPM.
ARMOR DSPM hosts its own models in a secure environment. Data never leaves the enterprise perimeter for AI processing. This is an architectural guarantee, not a promise from a third-party API provider. For enterprises operating under GDPR, DPDP Act, PDPL, and 34+ other data sovereignty mandates worldwide, this is non-negotiable.
From Diagnosis to Cure
Visibility is not control.
Discovery connects directly to Data-Aware Classification (ARMOR DAC), persistent protection (ARMOR EDRM), AI-layer enforcement (ARMOR AI-DLP), and a provable audit trail (ARMOR DSI Framework). Pure-play DSPM finds risk. ARMOR fixes it and proves it was fixed.
Zero-Configuration Value
Install. Connect. Protect.
ARMOR DSPM delivers classification accuracy from day one. No months-long training period. No 500,000-document seeding requirement. Time-to-value measured in days, not quarters. Security leaders see business-contextualized risk within the first week, not the first quarter.
How ARMOR DSPM Works
Protection begins at discovery
01
Detect
Continuously ingest data across enterprise environments. Identify sensitive content and derive context and intent as data evolves. No manual configuration. No pre-training.
02
Contextualize
Derived context and intent flow into Context-Aware Intelligence across all three layers: what the data is, what it means to the business, and which regulations govern it. Every signal makes the system smarter.
03
Enforce
Classification through ARMOR DAC and persistent protection through ARMOR EDRM activate automatically based on intelligence. ARMOR AI-DLP provides dynamic masking with reversible tokenization for data flowing into AI models and copilots. Protection follows the data wherever it goes.
04
Prove
ARMOR DSI Framework delivers the audit trail: who accessed what, when, where, and what controls were in place. Satisfy GDPR Article 30, DPDP Act breach notification obligations, and sector-specific mandates with evidence, not assertions.

Use Cases
Data Risk Intelligence
Maintain a continuous understanding of sensitive data exposure across the enterprise. ARMOR DSPM translates data signals into business risk so security leaders can prioritize remediation by impact, communicate exposure to the board in business terms, and make faster decisions about where to act first.
AI Readiness and Governance
Ensure data consumed by AI systems is understood, trusted, and controlled before it reaches a model or agent. ARMOR AI-DLP enforces dynamic masking inside the AI workflow itself. Organizations can embrace AI fearlessly because the data that powers AI is governed from discovery through to proof.
Regulatory Compliance at Scale
Continuously identify and prioritize regulated data based on exposure, sensitivity, and jurisdiction. ARMOR enforces the required controls and generates proof of compliance through ARMOR DSI Framework. Named regulation support includes GDPR, DPDP Act, NIS2, and sector-specific mandates. Compliance is not a sprint before audit. It is a standing capability.
Establish Data Ownership
Empower data owners with context-rich insight and accountability. Context-Aware Intelligence maps data lineage, usage, and sensitivity, giving owners the business context they need to make protection decisions, not just receive alerts.
Move Beyond Discovery. Establish Data Security Intelligence.
