Exobox Technologies has announced the availability of its SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) data leak detection software, ExoDetect.

The company said that during the ExoDetect product research and development phase, it found that confidential information about corporations and individuals is being leaked into unauthorised territory in pandemic proportions despite strict company policies, regulations and legislation that require organisations to safeguard such information.

According to Exobox, the new product is designed to identify and recover information that has already passed beyond the corporate walls and into the places on the internet where data is accessible by the public.

Ted Ernst, CTO of Exobox, said: No other product mitigates risk associated with governance and compliance breeches and closes the gaps that allow sensitive data to escape and become a liability to an organisation to the extent that ExoDetect does.

Karsten Abata, program director of Halock Security Labs, said: ExoDetect is the best data leak detection software available and exponentially enhances our ability to address both the strategic and technical security needs of our clients and protect their most valuable assets.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Exobox Technologies develops information risk management and security products that help organisations to protect and recover their information assets.
