DSPM

Definition

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) refers to a set of practices and tools designed to continuously monitor, assess, and improve the security posture of data across an organization’s IT environment. DSPM solutions aim to identify sensitive data, evaluate associated risks, and enforce security policies to protect data from unauthorized access and breaches. By providing visibility into data flows and storage, DSPM helps organizations maintain compliance with data protection regulations and standards.
