At Seclore, our commitment to securing enterprises’ most sensitive digital assets is at the forefront of our mission. Our success in this mission often means collaborating with other industry leaders to bring together best-of-breed technologies to enable enterprises to share data with external users confidently. In this spirit, we are thrilled to announce our strategic relationship with Symantec, part of Broadcom, a leading provider of enterprise security solutions worldwide.
“That’s just what our customers need as they continue to make big bets, and it speaks to Symantec’s commitment to working with strategic partners in addition to supporting our shared goal of helping customers protect their most sensitive data.”
Vishal Gupta, CEO of Seclore
Symantec and Seclore are teaming up to help enterprises battle the growing risk of cyber-attacks, insider threats, and non-compliance. Cybersecurity threats have recently become more frequent, sophisticated, and expensive, while compliance sometimes feels like a moving target. With Symantec DLP Cloud and Symantec DLP Core solutions integrated with Seclore, organizations can ensure they’re always compliant and protect their most sensitive data on-prem, in the cloud, and when shared with third parties.compliant and protect their most sensitive data on-prem, in the cloud, and when shared with third parties.
A long history of collaboration between Symantec and Seclore
Seclore has been deeply integrated with Symantec DLP (data loss prevention) for more than 10 years, enabling enterprises to leverage Symantec’s world-class discovery and classification engine to identify sensitive data and automatically protect it with Seclore.
Now, as more organizations continue to adopt cloud services, we’re embracing the next generation of security with support for Symantec DLP Cloud — a world-renowned solution for monitoring, detecting, and protecting sensitive information in cloud apps and environments.
Symantec and Seclore provide comprehensive discovery and data-centric security for sensitive information in endpoints, networks, email, cloud repositories, and third-party environments.
Data-centric security with Symantec DLP Cloud and Seclore
Symantec DLP Cloud provides comprehensive discovery, monitoring, and protection capabilities that enables customers with broad visibility and security in their enterprise cloud environments. It also automates the classification of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Payment Card Industry (PCI), Protected Health Information (PHI), and other regulated data flowing in and out of the cloud. This continuous monitoring helps organizations safeguard data across cloud apps, maintain compliance across SaaS and IaaS, and quickly respond to security incidents.
This is great if data stays within an organization’s perimeter (or their cloud environments), but what happens if an employee needs to share sensitive data with a regulator, supplier, or other external third party? In most cases, that data would no longer be visible or protected by the original organization — it would now be subject to the third party’s security and data privacy practices, which may not be as stringent as yours.
Seclore integrates seamlessly with Symantec DLP Cloud to automatically discover, classify, protect, and track sensitive data. Seclore adds persistent classification, encryption, granular access control, watermarking, and visibility to data, giving enterprises complete control over data, no matter how and where it is shared.
The other big challenge for enterprises is the different security postures of multiple cloud apps being used by the enterprises. As data moves between different cloud applications, its security posture changes constantly, which creates data security and compliance nightmares for security teams.
With security and compliance policies embedded in the data, enterprises can now adopt a uniform and data-centric security and privacy policy instead of multiple application-based policies.
Enterprises can now get the best of Symantec and Seclore with the whole lifecycle of Discover-Classify-Protect-Track across on-prem, cloud, and third-party environments covered.
Data-centric security with Symantec DLP + Seclore
In addition, Seclore has integrated seamlessly with Symantec’s on-premises DLP solution for over ten years to automatically discover, classify, protect, and track sensitive data. Seclore extends DLP protection by adding persistent classification, encryption, granular access control, watermarking, and visibility to data anywhere it is shared. This mature integration enables Symantec DLP to discover sensitive information within Seclore-protected data.
Conclusion
Imagine a scenario where a financial report needs to be shared with an external auditor. The integration of Symantec DLP Cloud with Seclore allows that report (stored in the cloud) to be automatically classified and protected with appropriate usage controls. The auditor could then view the report but not print, share, or download the report. And if necessary, access can be revoked at any time.
“Data is the currency of modern businesses and this integration ensures that our joint customers have the industry’s leading data-centric security and control no matter where their assets are. Symantec DLP plus Seclore’s Data Security Platform enables seamless movement of digital assets across multiple collaboration platforms while ensuring robust security everywhere.”
Rob Greer, VP and GM of the Enterprise Security Group at Broadcom
These integrations between Seclore and Symantec DLP solutions empower organizations to embrace the cloud while effectively safeguarding their most sensitive data. It’s a win-win — better security without impacting productivity.
