Before a full-scale indexing begins, an intelligent sample of your data says where the risk actually sits — so the first thing you learn is where to look.
01
Automated classification
Files are classified on content and metadata, not just the filename. What is public, internal or sensitive is decided by what the object contains.
02
Dark data discovery
Unstructured and forgotten data is catalogued and classified, which is what makes sensitive content hidden in your storage spaces visible at all.
03
ROT analysis
Redundant, obsolete and trivial data, and the stale containers holding it — files and SharePoint sites nobody has touched in years.
04
Permissions and share control
Knowing what a file contains is what lets a share be flagged the moment it happens: personal or financial data leaving the boundary, immediately.
05
Email analysis
Whether sensitive information is going out as attachments — the data points you need before you can say it is not.
06
Licence optimisation
Unused cloud-service licences, identified in the same pass as everything else.
What comes out of it
Most organisations do not know how much unstructured ROT data they hold. This is how you find out.
