Main Heading Text
From the moment of creation, your data sets sail on a journey. The second it sets sail, it becomes a liability. It costs you money in storage and poses a risk if it falls into the wrong hands. It’s only through a thorough understanding of the lifecycle of your data that you can effectively control and manage it.
Efficient management of data is necessary throughout its lifecycle to be able to minimise the risk caused by data and to reduce its cost.
Where Classification plays its part
- With modern Data Classification techniques, many data management tasks can be automated or enhanced by solutions that read metadata
- Applied during the classification process to determine how each piece of data is treated throughout each stage of its life cycle.
- Not only does the application of metatags help to ease the load when it comes to handling your data, it can also be used to

Challenge: Controlling data with vast user access
With over 4000 end users, an Insurance industry client came to HANDD for help. They needed to ensure policy details couldn’t be sent to unauthorised external parties by email. Using data classification, we identified and classified new documents containing policy numbers. Then we integrated the classification platform with the client’s Symantec DLP solution, enabling DLP to work more efficiently to ensure sensitive content only travels to cleared recipients.
Challenge: Managing compliance with large volumes of legacy data
With billions of records to sift through and strict compliance mandates, a global bank needed to get control over their legacy data. First, using a discovery tool HANDD helped them identify their sensitive data and discover where it was stored. Then, we labelled their data using Data Classification. This enabled them to apply protective measures efficiently to their most sensitive files for the first time.
Challenge: Ad-hoc application of protective measures
Staff typing SECURE into email subject lines to trigger downstream protection of sensitive data left plenty of scope for error. At this leading financial services organisation classification was inconsistent and ad-hoc. Security of delivery was unreliable. They contacted HANDD for help improving their classification processes. We implemented a Data Classification solution that would automatically classify emails. Integrating with a message gateway it prevents data falling into the wrong hands.
