GLBA compliance isn’t something to take lightly. These measures are strictly enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). In 2018, for instance, Venmo and its parent company PayPal reached a settlement after complaints about the company’s handling of privacy disclosures.

PCI compliance isn’t just good for customers; it’s also good for business. Merchants that fall short of PCI compliance standards not only put their customer data at risk but also may face hefty fines. The PCI Compliance Guide reports that fines and penalties can range from $5,000 to $100,000 per month for the merchant.

Dropbox is known for being a convenient file sharing and storage tool. For over a decade, Dropbox has allowed teams to collaborate cross- functionally by providing a single source of truth. With files being managed and synced to a central location, teams can work together without issues of version control. Even in a post- Google Drive and OneDrive era, Dropbox remains important, as not everyone uses the same productivity suites.

For organizations that work in or partner with the healthcare industry, HIPAA compliance is of paramount importance. Keeping a patient’s medical records and personal information safe isn’t just a matter of avoiding penalties. It’s also key to building trust with patients and, ultimately, providing great patient care.

Slack has become one of the most integral platforms for businesses over the last decade, with more than 12 million users currently active. Despite its popularity, however, there are some Slack security concerns that linger from the platform’s 2015 security breach.

Cloud programs like Slack and Google Drive allow businesses to work collaboratively and efficiently, often at a low cost. However, these cloud platforms open a business up to new levels of risk: sharing information via cloud programs can put customer data at risk.

Data exfiltration poses a significant threat to organizations across all industries. With cybercriminals using increasingly sophisticated methods to illicitly obtain sensitive information, IT and security teams face the daunting task of protecting their digital assets against both internal and external threats. This webinar will provide your team some practical strategies to enhance your company's defenses against data exfiltration.

Email remains a critical channel for business communication and also remains a prime exfiltration and attack vector. Traditional Secure Email Gateways (SEGs) and rules-based DLP solutions are proving inadequate against data loss, exfiltration, sophisticated attacks and the complexities of modern cloud environments. Whether your organization relies on Gmail or Exchange or a hybrid email environment, Nightfall AI can protect your email against data loss and exfiltration with a comprehensive, flexible, and efficient approach to protecting your email across platforms.

Nightfall for Notion DLP is purpose-built to pinpoint sensitive data across Notion workspaces. Whether you’re using Notion as an internal wiki, a note-taking app, or something more, Nightfall’s AI-powered detectors will identify and remediate high-priority risks to ensure that your business stays continuously secure and compliant as you scale.

All employees have a part to play in keeping company secrets safe—however, developers have an outsized role due to their privileged access to sensitive databases, production systems, and source code. With these unique challenges in mind, Nightfall partnered with Snyk to offer AI-powered secrets scanning for developers working in every stage of the code-to-cloud lifecycle.

Generative AI is exploding, allowing companies to do more with less. It is, however, also exposing companies to more data security risks than ever before. In our upcoming fireside chat, we'll join Enrique Salem, former CEO of Symantec, and Isaac Madan, CEO of Nightfall, to discuss the biggest security risks of Gen AI, as well as strategies you need to stay compliant without impacting employee innovation. By the end of the chat, you'll be armed with the tools you need to safely use ChatGPT and other Gen AI tools across your business. See you there!

Healthcare organizations require an effective way to scale HIPAA compliance enforcement across their cloud applications without excessive time and resource commitment. This requires a high-accuracy solution capable of parsing context to identify PHI violations as they are defined by HIPAA
Data loss prevention (DLP) is an important part of data security and compliance in the cloud, especially for organizations regulated by HIPAA. Furthermore, healthcare teams using Slack must follow specific guidelines laid out in Slack’s Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
Data loss prevention (DLP) is an important part of data security and compliance in the cloud, especially for organizations using SaaS applications that store high volumes of data. Companies turn to DLP solutions to discover, classify, and protect their sensitive data in environments like Jira, and maintain compliance with regimes like GDPR, CCPA, PCI, and more.

As a result of growing data breaches governments across the world are beginning to implement compliance regimes which require organizations to understand the quantity and nature of that data they’re ingesting. The Nightfall developer platform is designed to help organizations accomplish this with APIs that allow developers to stream data to our machine learning detectors for classification.
As organizations continue to rapidly adopt SaaS and cloud infrastructure, IT and security teams are becoming stretched. The expanding universe of business-critical cloud applications creates increased risk for the exposure of sensitive data like PII, PHI, as well as secrets and credentials. Cloud data protection is essential to ensuring employees follow best practices for handling sensitive data and that systems are configured in a manner that prevents unauthorized access.
