Access Management

The process of controlling access, of legitimate users, to data or systems, both on-premises and in the cloud. EchoMark emphasizes the importance of both restricting and monitoring access to  minimize insider threats.

Data Encryption

The process of converting data into a secured format using cryptographic algorithms. This ensures data is unreadable and unusable without being decrypted. Encrypted data can only be decrypted by authorized users who have access or permissions to use the decryption key, preventing unauthorized access even if the data is intercepted.

Encryption that occurs via back-end systems (such as email encryption) most often happens without the end user's direct input. With access and permissions often allocated at a corporate wide system level, encryption and decryption measures operate in the background.

Data Exfiltration

The unauthorized export or transfer of sensitive information from within an organization, to an external person(s) or entity. Data exfiltration can be done intentionally (maliciously) or unintentionally (accidentally), typically by insiders or through external adversary breaches.

Preventing data exfiltration is a critical focus for EchoMark's solutions.

Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

A common technology based on the discipline of safeguarding data from misuse or loss while also facilitating authorized access.

DLP is part of larger system within data security that helps organizations stop data leaks by tracking and tracing data throughout a network and enforcing security policies.

EchoMark incorporates DLP strategies to safeguard against unauthorized access and sharing that could lead to intellectual property (IP) theft or data exfiltration.

Insider Risk

The potential for harm or loss caused by insiders, such as employees, who may  exploit their access to an organization's resources. Insider risk includes  both malicious and unintentional actions.

Insider Threat

A risk posed by individuals within an organization, such as employees, contractors, or partners, who have legitimate access to systems but could misuse their access to leak or steal data, either intentionally or accidentally.

SecureView

A secure document viewing and sharing feature provided by EchoMark, ensuring that sensitive data remains protected and only accessed by verified users.

SecureView works well in a zero-trust security framework, without disrupting existing business operations.

Steganography-Based Watermarking

AKA: Forensic Watermarking

A  security technique used to hide digital watermarks within data or documents, making unauthorized sharing easily detectable. EchoMark proprietary watermarking technology helps prevent insider leaks by tracking document sharing and access.
