Security professionals sometimes complain that DLP is an outdated security method that’s getting passed by for more effective security methods. Radicati disagrees with this thinking, predicting very robust DLP market growth in the next 5 years. In fact, they estimate the market for DLP solutions is expected to grow from $2.2 billion in 2023 to nearly $5.6 billion by 2027.
That prediction is telling for a couple of reasons: 1) It explains the increasing number of new DLP entrants just in the last year (over 62 DLP vendors in the DLP market in 2022!). And 2) It also helps explain why traditional software players like Microsoft are seeking to grow their DLP business over the last couple of years.
In response, we’re honing data security capabilities into a holistic approach through our 4 pillars of the Data Security Lifecycle (discover, classify, monitor, and protect). This holistic approach along with orienting our data security portfolio across these pillars is one of the key reasons Forcepoint was recently recognized as a leader in the Forrester Wave™: Data Security Platforms Q1 2023.
That said, we know the cybersecurity industry doesn’t sit still—Forcepoint understands the changes in the evolving security landscape and why security professionals are looking to implement modern concepts like Secure Service Edge (SSE) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). For us, protecting data where it is being accessed and where it resides is key.
- Forcepoint ONE Cloud – Forcepoint launched last year a fully cloud-native DLP SaaS solution with coverage of cloud applications, web traffic and private cloud applications. Forcepoint ONE DLP is a feature of our Forcepoint ONE platform. It takes advantage of the AWS hyperscaler architecture with ability to scan large volumes of data at rest in cloud storage in hours instead of days. It also has 99.99% uptime with no scheduled downtime. It provides protection across a broad range of unmanaged devices including BYOD, Chromebooks, ARM devices, IoT and more.
- Forcepoint Enterprise DLP – This is Forcepoint’s keystone DLP solution – widely deployed across thousands of organizations and multiple industries. Forcepoint continues to innovate on this platform, maintaining our leadership in protecting data globally from the endpoint to the cloud. Recent innovations have included exact data match fingerprinting scalability (up to 600 million fields!), customizable end-user prompts, and greater customization in Forcepoint Risk-Adaptive Protection.
