In a workshop you mark material so nobody has to guess later what it is or where it came from. Two lines do that for files: locate the sensitive ones, then settle where they may travel.
Almost every firm turns out to be wrong about where its sensitive material sits. Card numbers end up in a spreadsheet attached to an old thread, identity documents get saved to a desktop for one afternoon and stay four years, and an export somebody needed once becomes a permanent resident of a laptop that travels.
Discovery sweeps the machines and reports what is genuinely there, device by device, with a figure attached to the exposure. That figure is the thing that makes the next conversation short.
Enforcement takes the map and acts on it. Files holding protected material get scrambled and unscrambled as people work, profiles let different classes of material be treated differently, and the applications and routes permitted to carry it are named rather than left to chance.
None of this asks your staff to hold a policy in their heads. The control rides on the file, so a rule travels alongside the material instead of depending on somebody recalling it at a bad moment.
Nearly everybody is wrong about where their sensitive files actually live.
Figures below are read straight from billing. Whatever you sign out waits on your roll while you keep reading.
A sweep of what genuinely sits on your machines: personal detail, card data and the rest, found where it lives rather than where a policy document insists it ought to live. Out of it comes a device by device breakdown and a starting figure to hold up against next quarter.

Everything discovery does, and then a consequence follows. Files holding protected material are scrambled and unscrambled as people use them, profiles decide what counts as protected in your trade, and the applications and routes permitted to carry it get named instead of assumed.

Data protection gets oversold harder than anything except mail. These two lines do a specific job, and here is where it ends.
