Data Discovery and Classification Solution
The data discovery and classification software from Lepide helps give you more context around your most sensitive data, so that you easily identify potential areas of exposure and apply the correct access controls. See how many of your files contain sensitive data, where they are distributed, what type of data you have and more.
Identify which of your data needs to be the focus of your security strategy, which data is potentially overexposed, which data applies to compliance regulations and address data that is stale.
Many compliance regulations require you to know exactly where your sensitive data is so that you can easily meet requirements such as the GDPR’s access requests and the right to be forgotten.
False positives are a common problem many classification tools face. Proximity scanning enables you to filter out false positives from your scan to improve the accuracy of your classification.
How Data Classification Works
Incremental Scanning After an initial discovery and classification scan, data can be classified at the point of creation/modification incrementally to give you a scalable solution that works quickly and efficiently.
Wide Range of File Types You can scan a wide range of different file types, including word documents, text documents and excel spreadsheets, to find out where your sensitive data resides.
Prioritize Data Based on Risk Categorize and score data based on the risk value of the content so that you can focus your user behavior analytics and permissions strategies on the data that matters most.
“Environment visibility at a glance. The real time alerting, and
live feed of changes are awesome.”
Lepide is straightforward to use and effective right off the bat. Plus, the level of patience, attentiveness and technical knowhow is far beyond most support and sales teams I’ve seen before.

Giving Context to Data Classification
Having more context about what classifications your data falls under enables you to more easily spot suspicious or unwanted user behavior.
Unauthorized permissions changes, anomalous user behavior, multiple failed access attempts, and other signs of data breaches can be captured, reported on and alerted on in real time.
If the worst does happen, you can quickly identify the severity of a breach by determining what types of data were involved.

Use Data Classification to Set Appropriate Access Rights
Easily identify the owners of sensitive files so that you can make better decisions about who should be able to access your sensitive data.
Proactive classification enables you to work towards a model of least privilege, where users only have access to the data they need to do their jobs.
Using Data Classification to Improve Data Security

Some of the more popular file types supported are: .doc, .xls, .sxc, .vsd, .rtf, .pdf, .ots, .sti, .txt, .xml, .pps, .stc, .csv, .ods, .ppt, .eml, .sub, .sxw, .aacdb, .dwg, .zip, .rar, .log, .mdb, and more.
We recommend running a full, deep scan across your data on a periodic basis (monthly or quarterly) and enable classification on-the-fly in the interim. Every time a new file is created/modified, Lepide will scan the files in real time to identify if there has been any newly created sensitive data
