#Privacy: US enterprise launches technology to offset data breach risk

According to a 2018 Opus/Ponemon Institute study of 1,000 CISOs and risk professionals in the U.S. and UK, companies share confidential information with, on average, 583 third parties.

Approximately 59 percent of companies say they have experienced a data breach caused by one of their vendors or third parties over that year.

US data protection company, Baffle, has now released its Data Masking and Exfiltration Control to help with the situation; the technology presents a masking and exfiltration solution that ties access control and usage to data-centric encryption to provide an end-to-end data protection solution.
