Shine a Light on Dark Data

Relying solely on metadata for national security or confidentiality classifications can be risky, as content can change over time, leading to improper protection. Users may also under-classify sensitive information to bypass data loss prevention (DLP) controls or fail to recognise the sensitivity of records due to unclear policies.

Castlepoint automatically reads all the content in your system—across formats and locations—without depending on metadata. It can detect, classify, and alert you to sensitive, classified, or risky data and ensure compliance with secrecy provisions under law.

With Castlepoint, you can automatically and accurately determine the correct security marking for documents and emails, and push those markings to Purview.

This means no more unlabelled or mislabelled content bypassing your DLP controls.

Benefits

  • Early Risk Identification: Gain command and control over all data and user  activity to identify issues before they escalate. Understand the potential  financial and legal impact of a data spill, from millions in penalties to  years of jail time, and take action to mitigate risks.    
  • Enhanced Security Classification: Castlepoint captures all available  security classification metadata, and goes further by identifying content-based security marking terms. This allows you to apply the correct  Business Impact Level taxonomy, ensuring that sensitive records are properly  classified and protected.
  • Automated Security Labelling: Castlepoint determines the security label that should be applied to your documents and emails, shows you the reasons for the match, and lets you push the correct label to Purview for DLP.

Controls

  • Secrecy and Privacy Obligations: Apply your secrecy, information handling, and privacy obligations and security labels across systems using regular expression  and ontology-based detection.    
  • Sensitive Data Alerts: Identify and alert on high-value data to protect it  from potential breaches. Detect PII, PCI, and PHI, as well as special category sensitive data, to ensure compliance with data protection policies.    
  • User Behaviour Monitoring: Gain visibility into user behaviour patterns across systems with high-fidelity event tracking. Receive alerts on actionable  events, such as new sensitive data being detected, or access via Copilot to high-risk records, and manage retention policies to lawfully dispose of risky data.

Savings

  • Minimise Breach Impact: Regularly remove risky data in compliance with the  law to reduce the impact and cost of breaches. Speed up breach review and  response by identifying and eliminating unsecured information such as  passwords and IP addresses.    
  • Governance and Reputation: Demonstrate strong governance and reduce  reputational damage by proving that your organisation adheres to best  practices for data management.    
  • Lower Cyber Insurance Premiums: Show insurers that you have effective data  retention management in place, potentially lowering your premiums.    Empower Your Cyber Team: Equip your cyber security team with  enterprise-wide, automated AI tools that meet national security standards.
