"Data is undoubtedly a key asset today, but all it takes is a breach to turn it into a dreaded liability. With more data generated than ever, organizations have a hard time tracking and storing it. Approximately 402.74 million terabytes of data are produced each day on average. To put this into perspective, this amount of storage can hold roughly 100 billion high-definition movies."
"With GenAI in play, data generation has skyrocketed further. However, the lack of data security measures leads to data breaches, often causing operational and financial disruptions, and also inviting regulatory intervention. There are many examples of weak security policies leading to breaches. Change Healthcare, a US-based technology company, suffered a ransomware attack that caused a data breach affecting 190 million US citizens."
Data volumes are expanding rapidly, producing hundreds of millions of terabytes daily and creating significant storage and tracking challenges. GenAI has accelerated data generation, amplifying exposure when security measures are insufficient. Data breaches cause operational and financial disruption and draw regulatory action; large-scale incidents such as a ransomware attack at Change Healthcare affected 190 million individuals. Approximately 79% of countries now have some form of data protection legislation. Data security posture management (DSPM) and AI-driven DSPM automate discovery, classification, anomaly detection, risk assessment, and policy enforcement to reduce exposure, speed incident response, and address shadow data, misconfigurations, and excessive permissions.
