WhitePaper : GajShield Data Leak Prevetion

This whitepaper explains about intentional or unintentional leak of information is a major concern for enterprises due to the exposure of users to increasing number of personal and business applications. The challenge that enterprises face is that these applications use evasion techniques like dynamic or random port numbers or application emulation.

Applications like orkut, bit-torrent, facebook, youtube, skype, Instant Messaging which are popular with users constitute risk to enterprises as they are unable to affectively monitor and control these applications and content sent through these applications.

This is because Firewalls don’t understand content, don’t understand applications, can’t see inside SSL-encrypted traffic, and have no understanding of users.

Enterprises are unable to match the Application risks and rewards as Firewalls/UTM’s are unable to provide visibility and control beyond port and protocols.
