Discover, analyze and resolve problems
The last stage is an iterative one. Users should first check the dashboard to identify the most vulnerable and problematic Views, such as those with sensitive documents which are dangerously exposed, or those with sensitive documents stored in unprotected data repositories. These are obviously the documents that the company should focus on first.
Using NogaLogic’s reports users should then drill down to fully analyze how these sensitive documents are handed across their organizations including what access rights exist for these documents and whether they are appropriate, who actually accessed and made changes to sensitive documents, whether these documents were emailed, and to whom, where they are stored, and whether copies and versions of these documents exist, and where they are stored.
With this insight, users can then take the necessary actions to effectively protect and govern their sensitive data data. These can include moving documents to a secure data repository, adjusting access rights, ensuring that copies and versions of sensitive documents are also protected, implementing 3rd party technologies, changing business practices or educating users in the company’s best practices for handling sensitive data.
Once the most critical at-risk data has been appropriately managed, users should go back to the dashboard to prioritize the ‘Views’ to work on next, based on the level of risk and company priorities.
