Tolly Releases Common Test Plan for DLP
Tolly Releases Common Test Plan for Data Loss Prevention
Latest in test plan series targets critical security topic
BOCA RATON, Florida - Nov.15, 2009 -- Tolly announced today the availability of the latest in its series of Tolly Common Test Plans, #1130 Data Loss Prevention. The test plan provides detailed evaluation techniques that can be applied to both network-based and endpoint-based data loss prevention solutions. The test plan covers content identification techniques, information channel protection, evaluating effectiveness when encountering obfuscated and/or encrypted data, and network efficiency.
"DLP is not only a critical area to all businesses, but, by its nature, is very complex," said Kevin Tolly, Founder of The Tolly Group. He continued, "It only takes one 'weak link' in the security chain to allow critical data to leak. That is why it is so important for IT security architects to test any prospective solutions thoroughly."
As with all Tolly Common Test Plans, this methodology is openly shared with IT vendor security experts and effectively peer-reviewed by any interested solution vendor. This assures that all opinions and concerns are heard and that an effective, vendor-neutral test plan is produced.
The Tolly Common Test Plan #1130 is available now for license by IT professionals. Contact Tolly for more information.
