2092: No-Code Data Loss Prevention for SaaS - a podcast by Neil C. Hughes

Polymer is a no-code Data Loss Prevention (DLP) platform that allows companies to monitor, auto-remediate & apply behavioral techniques to reduce the risk of insider threats, sensitive data misuse & leakage over 3rd Party SaaS platforms. It focuses on SaaS platform data security because that is a 'dark web' of sorts for organizations where data controls generally do not exist. Additionally, most SaaS applications' high collaboration focus makes it easy to lose or exfiltrate sensitive data.

Data Loss Prevention is no longer a technical problem but a business risk, especially in a remote/hybrid work environment. In addition, information security resiliency is critical in the cloud-first infrastructure where the tech stack is no longer a clear set of boxes (like it used to be for on-premises tech architecture) but rather a mishmash of SaaS and an overlapping set of technology services.

Often in infosec, teams view security as a 0 or 1 problem-either I am secured (check box) or I am not. As an ex-wall street bond trader, Yasir Ali looks at risk on a more probabilistic gradient. By deploying mitigating controls and nudging the workforce to behave responsibly, one can make any organization's information security posture resilient.
