Fidelis XPS Internal Delivers Passive Data Discovery as Additional Benefit
As the Fidelis XPS Internal sensor is the only network data leakage prevention (DLP) solution designed to be used deep inside an organization's network and scale to gigabit-speeds while understanding protocols seen inside the network, it is the only DLP solution able to provide passive data discovery functionality natively, provided as an additional benefit to the customer. By placing the sensor inside the network, customers can build an inventory of their sensitive or protected information by watching real-life internal network traffic and business process. Customers can deploy passive data discovery with Fidelis XPS Internal at a fraction of the cost of alternative, stand-alone products due to the simplicity of deploying a network appliance, yielding a faster time-to-value and lower total cost-of-ownership by leveraging the existing policies configured in Fidelis XPS' management console. Not only is Fidelis XPS simple to deploy, passive data discovery has no impact on production systems as it does not require additional logins or scans of the systems, instead relying on existing business process to learn where information resides.
