What is FileInsight?
FileInsight is software used for data discovery, file analysis, and risk detection. It scans files across an organization's systems, including file shares, SharePoint, Box, Dropbox, email servers, and more to analyze file content and metadata. Key features include:
- Sensitive data discovery - Identify files containing PCI, PII, PHI, financial data, credentials, and custom types of sensitive information.
- File analysis reporting - Gain visibility into file types, user access permissions, ownership, age, size, duplicates, and usage trends.
- Data risk detection - Detect files with policy violations, outdated content, unauthorized access permissions, and more.
- Integration with DLP and data security tools - Automate quarantining, encryption, or deleting files based risk levels through existing security controls.
FileInsight helps organizations discover where sensitive files reside, analyze them for risks, and protect high-risk content. This allows better data security governance, reduced breach risks from leakage or unauthorized access, and optimization of storage costs by identifying outdated, unused, and duplicate files.
