  3. Cloud DLP • Cloud DLP refers to Cloud Data Loss Prevention. It is a process that protects sensitive data that is in-transit or at rest or on endpoints. It reduces the probability of data theft and unauthorized access to it. Any cloud DLP solution prevents insecure storage, usage and transfer of data that is sensitive and confidential. It ensures that a business’ critical information is protected against cyber-attacks, insider threats as well as against any accidental exposure. Cloud Data Loss Prevention ensures sensitive data’s visibility and protection in IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) and SaaS (Software as a Service) applications. • Cloud DLP solutions protect the data of businesses that are using cloud storage by not allowing sensitive data to enter the cloud without being encrypted. Moreover, it ensures that sensitive data is transmitted to authorized cloud applications. Usually these solutions either alter or remove sensitive data prior to sharing files in the cloud. This ensures the protection of data that is in transit as well as that which is stored in the cloud. • To digress, cloud technology is used in cloud hosting, which is one of the types of web hosting services provided by web hosting companies. Websites are made accessible by this service. Those web hosting companies that excel in their services are referred to as the “Best Web Hosting Company”, the “Top Cloud Hosting Company”, the “Best Windows Hosting Company” etc.

  4. Benefits of Cloud DLP • The main benefits of any cloud DLP solution are mentioned below- • Scans servers as well as identifies and encrypts sensitive data prior to sharing files in the cloud • Scans the data that is stored in the cloud • Discovers accurately sensitive data • Audits data at any time • Audits uploaded files continuously • Applies controls (encrypt, prompt, block) to sensitive data automatically, based on policies • Alerts instantly when data is at risk • Maintains the required level of visibility and control with regard to data protection and privacy regulations.

  6. Cloud DLP’s Best Practices Cloud DLP’s best practices are mentioned below, in no particular order. • Data prioritization • Data classification • Being aware of the situations when data is at risk • Monitoring data that is in motion • Practising exact data matching • Communicating as well as developing controls • Training employees and providing guidance to reduce the probability of accidental data loss • Application of new security controls, for any new cloud DLP program, to one subset of critical data to ensure simpler implementation and management of the cloud DLP solution.
