“The foundation to a robust data centric security strategy is a sustainable approach to identify and persistently classify data at large scale,”said Keng Lim, CEO, NextLabs. “Companies struggle to stay ahead of data protection and data lifecycle management due to the significant increase in document volume and data sources spread out across the enterprise, while facing the need to stay on top of the ever evolving data protection requirements. Smart Classifier enables organizations to automate the process as well as ensure that the right data gets the right level of protection.”
