Description

Did you know that almost 50% of employees transfer business files to a private laptop? Is there anything we can do about it? Yes - implement a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) system to address potential data loss or theft on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and mobile devices. Protect your sensitive files, clients' information, credit card numbers, and more.

With a DLP system you decide when, from where, and by whom data can or cannot be accessed and copied! 

About this course: This is a vendor-neutral introductory course providing a high-level overview of DLP systems, architecture, components, and features. Hands-on labs included!

What I will learn: How to start with a DLP system, create a basic policy, understand DLP components, and even create your first regular expression (regex).

Special topics: Even though this is a vendor-neutral course, I show you a lot of real world examples and DLP systems that you can try at home - for free!
