Determining information flow

Analyze the flow of information through the organization:

• Where is information typically coming from? Internal users? Partners? Vendors?
• Where does information need to be sent?
• What are the potential pathways for information?
• What processes are in place, if any, to govern data flow?
• How many HTTP, SMTP, and FTP exits or egress points are there in the organization?

These questions are vital to ensuring that Forcepoint DLP protectors are placed appropriately so that nothing escapes analysis.
