Egnyte and Code Green Networks Combine to Protect Regulated Data with Cloud DLP

Obtaining the maximum benefits from collaborative data sharing in the cloud can be problematic for an enterprise handling regulated information. Organizations that process certain Personally Identifiable Information (PII) are required by government laws, industry practices and their own internal policies to maintain the privacy of that data. Failure to comply with regulations involving, for example, Payment Card Information (PCI) and Personal Health Information (PHI) can result in fines, media scrutiny and erosion of public confidence when breeches occur.

To address these compliance requirements, Egnyte and Code Green Networks have combined to offer an enterprise level Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution to control sensitive content in the cloud. Code Green Networks easy to use and well-established TrueDLP™ now includes cloud DLP features to provide coverage across the entire network, including Egnyte’s enterprise file-sharing platform.Code Green Networks delivers solutions that help enterprises protect and manage regulated and other sensitive digital information across their data network, whether local, remote, mobile or in the cloud. The company’s solutions have been tested and proven through daily use by hundreds of deployments in large and small organizations across the United States and around the globe.Code Green Networks leverages Egnyte’s APIs to integrate proven technologies for ease of use by our mutual customers.  File servers intended for the cloud may be scanned by TrueDLP™ prior to making information available via the cloud. This allows encryption, removal or other remediation of sensitive data before the file can be shared.  Information that is already in Egnyte can be similarly scanned and audited at any time with the same DLP resource. And, individual transactions may be scanned and controlled prior to storing data into Egnyte.  These capabilities enable the consistent governance of sensitive information that may be shared and stored.Scanning files for the Egnyte platform is performed using the same deep content inspection technology deployed in hundreds of TrueDLP™ installations to accurately identify sensitive data. Enterprises are able to detect and control sensitive data – in motion, at rest and in use – through advanced content analysis techniques within a single management console.This is particularly ideal for enterprises in regulated industries like finance and healthcare that have greater security and compliance concerns. Cloud DLP provides our joint customers with the tools to maintain visibility and control of their most sensitive data.To learn more about this Code Green Networks, check out: http://www.codegreennetworks.com/.*Chris Leffel is the Director of Product Management at Code Green Networks.
