GTB Data Loss Prevention - Core Technology ::

Core Technology

Based on patent-pending, proprietary technology, the GTB Inspector, a Reverse Content-Aware Firewall^TM prevents the loss of confidential or protected data from your network to the Internet over a whole range of network protocols, applications, data formats and usage scenarios. An attempted data leak is blocked, even if the protected data was altered from its original form through format conversion, copying, extracting, embedding, re-typing, compression, file extension changes etc.

The key to the GTB Security System is its proprietary, patent pending Data AccuMatch detection algorithms, which allow the GTB Inspector to detect and match pre defined data with unprecedented accuracy and speed. A flexible rules engine allows an Administrator to specify a wide range of compliance rules, based on users, computers, protocols and other parameters. GTB Inspector was designed from the ground up for information leak detection and prevention.

Both text and binary data are protected. Both structured data (social security numbers, credit card numbers, bank accounts etc.) and unstructured data (reports, memos, designs, source code, agreements etc.) are protected. Within documents, both visible and invisible data is protected.
