With this acquisition, Proofpoint strengthens its cloud-based people-centric security solutions by adding AI-based data classification to its <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.proofpoint.com\/us\/products\/information-protection\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Information &amp; Cloud Security&nbsp;platform<\/a>, helping organizations to better understand information risk and help to eliminate data loss in today&#8217;s hybrid world. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Data doesn&#8217;t lose itself. People lose data, and organizations are increasingly adopting data loss prevention strategies to manage that risk. Unfortunately,&nbsp;legacy products fall far short in&nbsp;actually preventing, detecting, and investigating data loss incidents in real time or immediately after they occur,&#8221; said&nbsp;Gary Steele, CEO, Proofpoint. &#8220;Integrating Dathena&#8217;s&nbsp;multi-patented, next-gen AI engine into our people-centric DLP solutions will&nbsp;provide our customers with unparalleled data protection and help them meet their challenging internal and regulatory compliance requirements.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Proofpoint&#8217;s unique people-centric approach to data loss prevention (DLP) is trusted by organizations worldwide-whether due to unintentional mistakes or malicious intent. With an automated common content classification that has been honed for nearly 15 years, Proofpoint&#8217;s cloud-based solution provides data visibility and context across multiple channels from a single console. In today&#8217;s hybrid world with increased digital file sharing, regulation, and privacy requirements, data discovery and classification is key to an effective DLP strategy.
