Verizon Business Data Discovery, Identification & Security Classification (DDISC)
Data Discovery, Identification, and Security Classification (DDISC) services address a key security issue for businesses: the heightened risk they face because they often do not know where all their data resides in today’s highly connected business world, or even what the data contains.
The DDISC services — which are immediately available in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific region — discover, identify, and classify data stored on a business’ servers and extended network linking customers, partners, and suppliers. As part of the services, expert Verizon Business IT security consultants review the relevance and sensitivity of the data, and compare it with the enterprise customer’s business goals. This information is then used to determine whether the company is handling and securing its data appropriately.
