Data Classification
Categorize and Secure Data Based on Pre-Defined Policies
Data classification plays a major role in the data security posture of any organization.

Why is Data Classification Important to Support Your Data Security Posture Management (DSPM)?
Data classification provides a foundational layer for effective data security strategy. By understanding and categorizing your data, organizations can make informed decisions about how to secure it, allocate resources, and comply with regulatory requirements.
Benefits of Data Classification to Support Your Data Security Posture
Enhanced Data Protection
By identifying which data is the most sensitive or critical, organizations can apply more stringent protection measures to that data, ensuring it remains confidential and is not improperly accessed or disclosed.
Cost Efficiency
Not all data requires the same level of protection. By classifying data, organizations can allocate resources and investments where they are most needed, ensuring that the most critical data gets the highest protection, while less sensitive data gets proportionate security measures.
Risk Management:
Data breaches can have significant financial and reputational implications. Data classification allows organizations to assess risks associated with their data and implement appropriate measures to mitigate those risks.
