Data-centric security

Design and implement a secure strategy

The shift from perimeter-based to data-centric security is a priority.

Data is the lifeblood of organizations, and it's under attack. From personal information to sensitive business data, cybercriminals are targeting data at an alarming rate. And with the increasing adoption of cloud computing and remote work, the attack surface is only getting bigger.

If you don't have a robust data-centric security strategy in place, your organization is at risk. Data-centric security focuses on protecting the data with a holistic approach, encompassing encryption, access controls, data loss prevention, and other security measures.

SHI can help you design and implement a secure strategy that meets your specific needs. We have the expertise and experience to help you protect your most valuable asset.

Secure your critical data

Many organizations don’t know where all their sensitive data is, making it impossible to ensure security and comply with data privacy laws. SHI’s data-centric security offerings enable you to identify and secure “crown jewel” data.

Our solutions enable visibility into the location of your sensitive data, its level of risk, and how it flows within the organization. By evaluating the current state of your security program, developing a prioritized roadmap for improvement, and putting data at the heart of your security strategy, we help you establish exactly what you need to stay protected and ensure the appropriate controls are in place.

Encryption

Encryption is vital to a data-centric security strategy to protect unauthorized access and eavesdropping, maintain data integrity by detecting unauthorized changes or tampering, and adhere to regulatory frameworks like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS. Encryption allows you to control access to all data in order to mitigate insider threats, keeping your data safe and your reputation intact.

Data loss prevention

Data loss prevention (DLP) is crucial when it comes to a data-centric security strategy, focusing on safeguarding data at rest, in transit, and in use. DLP tools and practices are designed to detect and prevent unauthorized access, sharing, or leakage of sensitive data. These solutions help organizations identify, monitor, and protect sensitive information, ensuring it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands.

Access management

Access management and controls are the gatekeepers in a data-centric security strategy, ensuring only authorized individuals can view, modify, or manipulate data. SHI can help you implement a well-defined access control plan so your organization can preserve confidentiality, maintain integrity, and ensure compliance.
