RSA Updates Data Loss Prevention Suite

By Alex Handy

April 2, 2008 —  A week before its annual conference, RSA is rattling its saber in the data protection market. Today, RSA announced that it will update its Data Loss Prevention Suite in early May. The new version will bring with it a management console that will make the management and creation of data loss prevention policies easier to handle.

RSA DLP already consists of software tools that can enforce security policies in data centers, on the network and at endpoints. These policies will soon be maintained and monitored from the RSA DLP Enterprise Manager, a central console for managers and policy creators. Each policy can be targeted at specific points on the network: unencrypted network traffic can be forced into an encrypted state, quarantined or completely blocked, depending on the policies in place.

RSA is targeting compliance needs with the DLP suite and will include a number of pre-written policies that conform to common data loss prevention needs. Specifically, the DLP suite can monitor and search across networks, data centers and end user machines to find information that does not conform to DLP policies, and then enforce those policies.
