How to contain Enterprise Data

If not monitored or controlled, data access and sharing will spiral endlessly within (and outside of) an organisation. Many enterprises have lost visibility of who has access to what and data breaches can occur.

Data being shared on a daily basis include spreadsheets, design files, marketing and business plans, presentations and so on. Applications such as Sharepoint, Google Workspace, and Teams make sharing information as easy as creating the data in the first instance.

It is this this sharing that drives creativity, collaboration and productivity within an organisation.

At the same time however, it’s vital to understand where any piece of data originated (which business user is the data owner), who needs access to it, why they need access and in order to control sprawl, whether that access is no longer required.

But rather than stifle collaboration and productivity by limiting sharing, we need to adapt our data access security to control and contain it.

Tools such as Torsion can enable an organisation to just that…even better, the lions share can be automated.

Torsion automatically monitors and controls who owns each piece of data, who has access to it, why they have access and whether any access looks out of date or suspicious. If access is no longer required then access is automatically revoked – data sprawl is contained and so is the risk of a data breach.

At any one time, an enterprise has complete visibility of what data exists, who is sharing it, who has access and why they have access.

The balance of enabling productivity and collaboration whilst securing and containing Enterprise Data is now an easy reality. To find out more about containing Enterprise Data with your organisation email us at info@torsion-is.com.
