Data Classification with Microsoft

Get comprehensive classification across Microsoft Office and Office 365

The Challenge

For organizations, it’s always been a challenge managing the sheer quantity of unstructured data that’s created and shared by their employees. For most businesses, the majority of that data is created and shared through Microsoft Office. Organizations need the appropriate security controls in place to not only mitigate the risk of data loss but also to ensure that users are made aware of the importance of safeguarding sensitive documents.

The Solution 

Fortra’s data classification solutions empower users to apply visual labels to documents and embed those labels into the document's metadata. These labels can help enforce an organization's rules for handling and releasing certain files and be leveraged by other downstream security solutions to protect against accidental or malicious data loss from the point the document is created to when it’s shared.
