Protecting Sensitive Data While Working Remotely During the

Coronavirus/COVID-19 Pandemic with Somansa DLP

Somansa DLP helps companies prevent sensitive data leakage on endpoints, laptops, devices and
meet data privacy laws.

San Jose, CA, April 27, 2020 --(PR.com)-- Somansa, a global leader in data loss prevention, provides
data security solutions for remote and home users to protect sensitive data leakage and help meet data
privacy law requirements.

As the coronavirus pandemic crisis continues to proliferate throughout the world, many employees are
mandated to work remotely or from home to control the spread of COVID-19. Companies have the
challenges of managing and securing endpoints and sensitive data including meeting data privacy and
compliance requirements with endpoint security products as more employees are working outside of the
normal network perimeter.

“In addition to securing employee’s endpoints with Internet and data security solutions, it is important
that companies prepare the proper guidelines and policies for protecting sensitive data from leakage. For
example, companies should establish polices for which employees can access what types of information
and then, educate employees on data security and privacy policies such as using only approved company
email and file sharing, cloud services,” says Richard Kim, CEO of Somansa.
