Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) delivers a unified solution to discover, monitor and protect confidential data wherever it is stored or used. Symantec offers comprehensive coverage of confidential data across endpoint, network and storage systems – whether the users are on or off the corporate network. By measurably reducing risk, Symantec gives organizations new confidence to demonstrate compliance while protecting their customers, brand and intellectual property.

Symantec Data Loss Prevention 10.5 is the current version of Symantec's leading data security suite, which enables the use of social media while guarding against data loss. The tool protects information in private clouds and helps organizations take ownership of unstructured data, such as documents, spreadsheets and email. Symantec DLP 10.5 provides companies with a defense-in-depth approach to their security strategy and provides content-aware data leakage prevention capabilities.

The tool enables compliance to pass audits. Merchants and agents that fail to comply with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Standard face potential fines from the major credit card companies, as well as possible termination of their ability to process credit card transactions.

Further, the solution enables the maintaining of brand reputation and customer trust. Data breaches result in churn or turnover of customers. The industries with the highest churn rates are pharmaceuticals, communications and health care (6 percent), followed by financial services (5 percent).

Symantec Data Loss Prevention helps organizations prevent data breaches by enabling businesses to answer three key questions: where's my confidential data, how is it being used, and most importantly, how do I protect it from loss?

Symantec Data Loss Prevention discovers confidential data wherever it is stored throughout an organization. With this solution, companies can address key challenges around the Payment Card Industry (PCI) standard, data inventory and data classification in order to demonstrate regulatory compliance, reduce risk and safeguard their brand and reputation.

Symantec is a global market leader for data leakage prevention with 30 percent of the worldwide DLP market.
