Data classification is the bedrock of an effective information governance strategy

You can’t protect your data when people and corporate systems don’t know enough about the contents of files to handle them properly.

The most effective way to provide that information is to ensure you have a robust classification solution in place.

By identifying the business value of unstructured data, organizations can make intelligent, deliberate decisions on how to handle their documents.

Meet regulatory compliance requirements

Titus Classification enables organizations to confidently share information while complying with government and industry regulations.

Titus Cybersecurity solutions are used by organizations to comply with broadly applicable regulations like GDPR, CCPA, EPMS as well as standards and regulations commonly used in governmental and military environments, like ISO 27001, NERC, HIPAA, SOX, ITAR, and EAR.

Enhance security awareness

Titus Classification clearly identifies sensitive information by classifying documents and applying visual markings to email and files as needed.

As users work with the information, they are guided by interactive policy tips to encourage proper handling and prevent disclosure to unintended recipients.

Detect and handle sensitive data

DLP, encryption, and other perimeter security solutions can leverage Titus classification metadata to determine what information is sensitive and how it should be protected.

Classification selections and other information attributes can also trigger automatic protection by Microsoft Rights Management Services® (RMS) and other digital rights management solutions.

Manage your retention-related metadata

Titus Cybersecurity Classification can be used to capture retention-related metadata as users create and send information. This metadata can be mapped to retention codes, allowing organizations to defensibly delete information as it goes from asset to liability.

Titus metadata also enhances eDiscovery by making it easier to find relevant information for legal, compliance, and regulatory requests.

Increase user engagement across your organization

When users are active participants in data protection processes, they become more accountable for the information they create.

With support for fully automated, system-guided, and user-driven, manual classification, Titus integrates data identification and information protection into every day workflows, making it as seamless as a spell-check

This promotes a culture of security that enables organizations to enforce data governance policies and prevent inadvertent disclosures.

What you don’t know can hurt you

Businesses create and collect more data than ever: proprietary information, financial information, employee and customer information. It’s everywhere — stored on and flowing between local machines, networks, mobile devices, and the Cloud.

In addition, new security regulations have made the identification and security of data at rest a growing concern. But to protect your data, you need to first know how to identify it.

Data protection starts with identification

If you could easily identify your data, you’d be able to apply the right level of protection, remind others to handle it with care, and automatically trigger security policies to protect it. Your people and systems could then work together to reduce risk and meet compliance requirements.

Titus Data Classification automatically detects sensitive data in motion, and Titus Illuminate detects data at rest. Titus machine learning capabilities identify and protect sensitive data based on the categories you train the system to recognize, such as confidential financial reports, internal design documents, or public news releases.

Scan and analyze data at creation, in motion and at rest – and apply appropriate identification attributes.

Titus Cybersecurity lets you apply and detect metadata on data at rest, enabling you to prove regulatory compliance. Our solutions can be combined with encryption and enterprise digital rights management (EDRM) software for up-to-date compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other regulations.

Employ data loss prevention (DLP), enterprise rights management (ERM), cloud access security brokers (CASB) and next-generation firewall solutions to read and understand Titus metadata and apply the appropriate data protection policies.

The metadata Titus Cybersecurity injects into files and emails can be leveraged by other components of your data security ecosystem – data loss prevention (DLP), enterprise rights management (ERM), cloud access security brokers (CASB) and next-generation firewall solutions. A cohesive, integrated approach that makes it easier to apply the appropriate data protection policies globally.

Titus solutions enable organizations to identify, classify and secure information so people can work with confidence, knowing that the sensitive information they create, share and consume is protected across all platforms.

Titus remediates risk by managing access to sensitive data and disposing of redundant or obsolete data.

The challenge

Organizations have been struggling to secure sensitive data since the dawn of the digital age and the challenge compounds on a daily basis as data volumes continue to increase exponentially.

Protecting this ever-growing collection of data – financial, personal, health care – cannot be achieved by using one silver bullet technology. Instead, it requires an ecosystem of products working together to plug all the potential holes in an organization.

Automating these products can remove the burden on front-line staff, allowing them instead to focus on core business objectives. However, any automated system can bring fear, uncertainty, and doubt in the people who have to rely on their accuracy and effectiveness.

The Solution

Titus Cybersecurity removes these concerns by adding context to data so your security ecosystem is better equipped to make accurate and effective data security decisions.

Our solution makes your security ecosystem smarter and acts as your corporate policy broker to provide consistent protection.

What is data security?

Data security is both a mindset and a coordinated, concrete set of efforts and software solutions deployed throughout an organization designed to comprehensively protect data transmitted each day at all stages of its journey. For comprehensive data security, organizations need to add a layer of protection so that each stage of data is protected throughout its journey for end-to-end security. Ideally, your data security position should include solutions that can understand and classify your data, detect and prevent leaks, and secure and protect data both at rest and in motion.

Why a data security policy matters

Data security is the practice of identifying and protecting sensitive data, and ensuring it remains secure throughout its lifecycle. The data that requires protection is dependent on the compliance regulation or standard that governs the organization – this could be by:

• Industry, such as the Protected Healthcare Information (PHI) privacy rule, or by
• Data type, such as Payment Card Information (PCI) or Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

Data security solutions facilitate the proper handling of this data, helping organizations achieve and maintain compliance through the management and control of data at rest, in use, and in motion.

Data Classification

The foundation of a solid data security strategy begins with data classification. Identify and prioritize the data you need to protect, including critical unstructured data such as intellectual property. Our data classification solutions offer essential management and control of your data to ensure compliance – and our experts work with you to select the best solution to fit your needs.

Adaptive Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Minimize the risk of a data breach by automatically removing sensitive data from emails and documents as they are sent or transferred to and from the cloud. Adaptive DLP applies an additional layer of real-time sanitization to protect your organization from phishing, ransomware, and other Advanced Persistent Threats.

Secure Managed File Transfer (MFT)

An automated MFT solution provides a secure and compliant way to share data within and outside your organization, all through a centralized platform. With the addition of Adaptive DLP, you can ensure that files sent and received do not contain any sensitive data or unwanted cyber threats.

Data Encryption

Encrypting data at rest and in motion is a key requirement for many regulations and is your last line of defense to ensure your sensitive data does not fall into the wrong hands. Our solutions can limit the impact of a data breach as the data cannot be decrypted without the appropriate key.
