Helps you move to cloud email securely
We’re excited to announce the rollout of the DLP Cloud Service for Office 365 and Gmail! It adds an essential layer of enterprise-grade security on top of public cloud email services to protect you against data breaches and targeted attacks. This will especially benefit companies that have moved or are considering moving their corporate email systems to Microsoft Office 365 Exchange Online or Gmail for Business.
The new DLP Cloud Service for Email delivers a convenient hybrid cloud solution with security and compliance capabilities:
- Data loss prevention
- Anti-malware
- Anti-spam
- Policy-based encryption
Secures sensitive email
The DLP Cloud Service for Email provides a new, hosted data loss prevention service, the Symantec Cloud Detector, built with our industry-leading DLP software. It catches sensitive data being emailed by employees from Exchange Online and Gmail with high-accuracy content detection technology so you don’t have to worry about false positives. It also automatically alerts employees to security policy violations through email notifications, and blocks messages or redirects them to an encryption service for secure delivery.
Not only that, but all of your DLP policies and incidents - for data in the cloud, in motion, at rest, and in use - can be easily managed from a powerful web-based interface and on-premise management server, the DLP Enforce Platform.
Blocking spear phishing attempts, targeted attacks and unwanted email
The DLP Cloud Service for Email comes bundled with our highly effective and accurate email security service, Symantec Email Safeguard. Email Safeguard delivers anti-malware, anti-spam, data protection and policy-based encryption capabilities with the convenience and simplicity of fully hosted service.
It leverages Skeptic, our advanced heuristic scanning technology, to effectively filter unwanted messages. It also prevents emails with bogus links – the malicious kind used in spear-phishing and targeted attacks – from ever showing up in employee inboxes with Real-Time Link Following technology. On top of these inbound email security features, Email Safeguard can seamlessly encrypt outbound email based on message attributes and content using secure PDF, which is totally transparent to senders.
More to come
As of today, the DLP Cloud Service is hosted in two Symantec data centers in the U.S. The rollout for Europe will start in the second half of 2016. This is just the beginning! The DLP Cloud Service for Email includes Symantec DLP Cloud Detectors, Symantec DLP Enforce Server and Symantec Email Safeguard. We’re excited for you to try the DLP Cloud Service for Email!
