Exact Data Match and Zscaler DLP
Not to be confused with Exact Data Match offered by Microsoft, Zscaler Exact Data Match is a storage- and compute-intensive operation, requiring a highly scalable platform that can accommodate its processing demands.
Because Zscaler Cloud DLP with EDM is built on a global multitenant cloud architecture, it detects and blocks attempts to send protected data no matter where the user connects or what apps are being used. There’s no impact on connectivity or performance due to Zscaler’s large global footprint (over 150 PoPs), and the centralized Zscaler admin portal provides real-time visibility into incidents.
Most DLP systems can’t inspect encrypted traffic, leaving them blind to the majority of enterprise traffic. But Zscaler Cloud DLP is part of the integrated Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™ platform, which inspects all traffic, including encrypted traffic. Zscaler is the only security service provider that provides such functionality as a cloud-delivered service.
With Zscaler EDM, you can fingerprint and match billions of cells of your unique sensitive data, store those fingerprints in the Zscaler cloud, and stop data loss globally and at scale. Zscaler also helps you maximize your information protection as you comply with industry mandates, such as HIPAA for healthcare data and medical records, as well as data privacy regulations like GDPR.
Leveraging an extensive feature set, including EDM, machine learning, file type control, and granular DLP policy that follows the user, Zscaler Cloud DLP simplifies compliance with regional regulations. It can also help increase your security posture, reduce end user frustration stemming from unnecessarily blocked transactions, and give your teams back time to investigating and address real data loss incidents instead of digging through the haystack of false positives.
