Data Classification

Identify, label, and understand your sensitive data.

What is Data Classification?

Content, context and user classification. Digital Guardian data classification can automatically locate and identify your sensitive data then apply labels to classify and determine how the data is handled. Our comprehensive data classification solutions - from automated content and context-based classification to manual user classification - are optimized for regulatory compliance, intellectual property protection, and mixed environments.

By understanding what sensitive data you have, where it is, and how it’s used, you’re in a better position to apply the appropriate controls.

THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE DATA CLASSIFICATION SOLUTION

Digital Guardian DLP incorporates the full range of classification from fully automated to manual user classification. Unique context-based classification can automatically identify and tag sensitive data even before you develop policies. Our automated content-based file inspection identifies, tags and fingerprints sensitive data for the lowest false positives. User classification empowers users to classify sensitive data based on business requirements. Each can be used singly, or combined to deliver the most comprehensive data classification solution.

THE #1 RATED TECHNOLOGY BY GARTNER FOR IP PROTECTION

Only Digital Guardian’s context-based classification provides the intelligence to classify unstructured data such as intellectual property (IP) automatically, as it is created or modified, based on the user, source, and application. It automatically adds a security tag to each individual piece of data that dictates customized permissions, taking into account the type, content, and/or author. It’s just one reason that Gartner rates us #1 for IP protection.

MORE ACCURATE DLP AND THREAT DETECTION & RESPONSE

Digital Guardian data classification is integrated into our Threat Aware Data Protection platform. That means that your organization's classified sensitive data is identified and tagged for both DLP and threat detection and response use cases. This increases threat hunting and incident response efficiency by incorporating data sensitivity levels into alert prioritization.
