Know Where Your Sensitive Data Lives

Data discovery helps organizations understand what data they have, where it's stored, and who can access it.

WatchGuard Data Control scans endpoint devices to discover and classify sensitive, personally identifiable information (PII). By identifying where sensitive information resides and who has access to it, organizations can better understand and reduce their data exposure.

Preventing data leaks requires understanding where sensitive information resides, who has access to it, and how it is being used. Continuous monitoring, visibility into personal data, and alerts for suspicious activity help organizations reduce the risk of unauthorized access or accidental exposure.

Data discovery is the process of automatically identifying and classifying sensitive information stored across an organization's devices and systems. It provides visibility into where regulated data exists, helping organizations improve governance, reduce risk, and support compliance initiatives.

Privacy regulations such as GDPR require organizations to understand and appropriately protect personal data. Data discovery helps locate personally identifiable information (PII), monitor its use, and demonstrate appropriate safeguards through reporting and auditing capabilities.

WatchGuard Data Control is currently available in Spain, Germany, UK, Sweden, France, Italy, Portugal, Netherlands, Finland, Denmark, Switzerland, Norway, Austria, Belgium, Hungary, and Ireland.
