Why data security needs a platform: what recent DSPM and DLP acquisitions tell us about the future of cybersecurity

In recent years, we've witnessed an acceleration of consolidation across the cybersecurity industry, with data security at the heart of this evolution. The rise of AI use cases has accelerated the need for protecting sensitive data for most enterprises. Major acquisitions like Dig Security and Laminar in the Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) space, alongside acquisitions of DLP (Data Loss Prevention) companies like Next DLP, Trail, Mimecast, and Code42, signal that we are entering a new phase in how enterprises secure their most sensitive asset—their data.

Don’t be fooled: data security requires global data lineage, not “local lineage”

Securing data today requires the context provided by data lineage: where data came from, who interacted with it over time, which systems have used it, and more. But buyer beware: many vendors now claim to offer “data lineage” that only provides a tiny fraction of the context of true, global data lineage.

Modern data security: why the convergence of DLP and IRM is more effective than the sum of its parts

In the past decade, organizations seeking to protect sensitive data from negligent or malicious insiders faced two choices: invest in a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) product or an Insider Risk Management (IRM) product. These solutions addressed the same problem from different angles. DLP products focused on analyzing data content to control its movement, while IRM products monitored user behavior for risky actions.
