Data loss has always been a threat to businesses. Long before you needed IT services in Sacramento, in the days before computers and the internet, businesses had to ensure that critical data was secure from theft, loss, and corruption. With the rise of the digital age, however, the threat posed by data loss has accelerated. At Noverus Innovations, we help partners shape the future of their security.
Increasingly, laws and industry requirements mean that even if you don’t suffer from any data loss, you could be penalized for failing to comply with rules. What’s more, just failing to provide adequate evidence of how you are safeguarding data can lead to sanctions.

Also, when applied in concert with mobile device management (MDM) solutions, DLP technology will mitigate threats to data created by mobility and bring your own device (BYOD) policies.
At Noverus Innovations, as an IT support provider in Sacramento, we love the deep power of today’s security platforms. As with many of today’s truly powerful enterprise solutions, the ultimate power of DLP technology comes from using it to frame, spec and programmatically implement or maintain relevant policies.
Your organization will develop the robust, detailed data loss prevention policies that work for you. These will comply with all relevant legal, industry and professional mandates and protocols. At the same time, an assessment of your data will be made. This involves asking questions like:
A DLP technology solution can also help with the discovery element of this assessment.
Once your DLP policies are created, you can develop your DLP strategies. From your DLP policies and strategies, you can configure your DLP technology to help ensure that your policies are maintained. Much of this can be done automatically with all reporting needed to ensure stakeholders are informed about the state of your data security.
Approaching your DLP needs can be a daunting prospect, especially if it isn’t the focus of your business, but an IT services provider in Sacramento, such as Noverus Innovations, can help bring experience and guidance to DLP solutions. Contact us now to find out more.
