Data is the lifeblood of organizations, fueling innovation, growth, and business-critical decision-making. But as data flows faster and further across cloud environments, on-premises systems, and sprawling data lakes, new complexities emerge:
- Sensitive data is scattered across environments, creating blind spots and increasing the risk of exposures.
- Shadow and abandoned data, often unmonitored, amplifies vulnerabilities and leaves organizations unaware of hidden risks.
- While transformative, AI models bring their own risks through data imprinting and unchecked real-time interactions.
Every security leader must ask the following questions: “Where is my data, and is it secure?” Without clear answers, the risks grow exponentially; data breaches, misconfigurations, and overexposed access are just the beginning. This is where data security posture Management (DSPM) becomes a change agent for organizational data strategy.
