The workplace is becoming increasingly mobile with users accessing corporate data from anywhere at any time. While this trend offers organizations significant productivity benefits, it also increases the risk of data loss that could cause irreparable harm. This paper guides IT professionals through the steps necessary to implement a practical data loss prevention (DLP) strategy. It starts off by quickly looking at what's driving data loss prevention, the consequences of data loss and how it can be comprehensively tackled using Sophos solutions. It then provides practical implementation advice and examples.

This white paper examines the challenges organizations face and the steps they can take to protect themselves and their customers against data breaches and ensure the safety of this sensitive information.

In a mobile environment, data, not just employees, is also mobile. Loss of a laptop that contains trade secrets or confidential data can be costly - not just to business, but to consumers - and the cost of a single data breach can run into the millions.
