Stopping Customer Financial Data Leaving the Bank

Label-aware DLP that stops account numbers, card data and statements from leaving the bank, without burying analysts in false alerts.

The Challenge

Sensitive Data Moves Through Ordinary Work

Account numbers, card data, statements and customer onboarding files travel all day through email, removable drives, browser uploads and shared folders. Almost all of that movement is legitimate, and that is exactly what makes the rest hard to spot.

Controls built on pattern matching alone end up in one of two places: so broad that analysts drown in alerts and start ignoring them, or so narrow that real leaks go through. Meanwhile supervisors and auditors expect evidence that the controls actually act.

The Data Guard Approach

How It Works, Step by Step

01

Label first

Data Guard Classification labels customer financial data using your own categories, so every later decision starts from context rather than a guess.

02

Act on the label

Data Guard DLP reads that label when data moves and chooses to allow, warn, ask for a reason, or block — so rules target what is actually sensitive.

03

Cover every exit

The same policy applies to email, removable media, print, browser uploads and clipboard, and keeps working when a laptop is off the network.

04

Keep the evidence

Every decision is recorded with the label and rule behind it, ready for internal audit and supervisory review.
