Data Security Posture Management

Data Security Posture Management Reviews and Ratings

What is Data Security Posture Management?

Data security posture management (DSPM) discovers previously unknown data across on-premises data centers and cloud service providers (CSPs). It also helps categorize and classify previously unknown and discovered unstructured and structured data. As data rapidly proliferates, DSPM assesses who has access to it to determine its security posture and exposure to privacy, security and AI-usage-related risks. DSPM is delivered as software or as a service.
