Monitoring of Social Media

Monitoring of Social Media

Business depends on the flow of information, and many have embraced social networking as a means of information sharing and collaboration, as well as marketing tools and to establish customer relationships. Millions of social networking updates cross corporate networks each day. Businesses need to protect their own data, and also have an obligation to guard the employee and customer data entrusted to them.  Many fall under industry or regulatory compliance mandates requiring that sensitive data be protected.

Most IT administrators have no way to know if confidential or sensitive information is being leaked via social networks. IT departments lack the tools to properly protect sensitive data, or to ensure that employees can not share it across the Internet--whether inadvertent or intentional. IT administrators also have no way to easily monitor network traffic and proactively intercept and block dangerous communications.

Until now, tools designed to protect data and fight information leakage have been limited to complex, rules-based applications that are cumbersome to implement and maintain, and add undue burden to IT administrators who already have too much on their plate.

Zgate is the gatekeeper for your network. Zgate monitors and controls social networking communications at the network perimeter. Zgate software analyzes the contents of outbound communications to ensure that sensitive or confidential information is not leaked. Zgate can also be combined with external modules to provide anti-spam and anti-malware protection as well.

With Zgate, IT departments are able to automate the process and proactively prevent sensitive and confidential information from leaving the network. Zgate minimizes the risk of data leakage, while also providing valuable forensic data to facilitate investigation into incidents and data breaches.
