Sep 25, 2023 at 5:41 PM Nextcloud introduces Data Loss Prevention Capabilities supported by ICAP
Nextcloud has introduced Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capabilities, supported by the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP). DLP is a crucial security tool that helps detect and prevent data loss, leakage, and misuse. Nextcloud's ICAP support enables it to work with numerous DLP applications, thereby enhancing its data protection capabilities.
The DLP tool's primary function is to detect and prevent data loss, leakage, and misuse, including breaches and unauthorized use of data. To bolster security, Nextcloud has upgraded its Antivirus (AV) app, which scans files for viruses when uploaded. The AV app is compatible with various anti-virus engines, such as Clam AntiVirus, Kaspersky Scan Engine, and any ICAP-compatible scanner. It can also interpret file content and detect sensitive data, like Social Security Numbers.
Nextcloud also offers customization options for DLP strategies, allowing organizations to adapt their data protection measures to meet specific needs. To set up DLP capabilities with ICAP support, organizations can contact Nextcloud's Sales Engineers. The main highlights of this development include the use of Nextcloud's antivirus scanner app, the implementation of effective DLP strategies, and the chance to get personalized DLP plans for data protection.
