Executive Summary

Current security solutions are well-suited to enforcing simple policies, but they can't provide more subtle detection. As the need for security increases, Forrester sees an emerging market, information leak prevention, filling the gap with products that monitor, measure, and prevent the inappropriate disclosure of sensitive business or customer information. When selecting one of these solutions, firms should examine a number of criteria, including how accurate is it in detecting the sensitive information and where is the policy enforcement located? As the information leak prevention market grows, we expect big content security vendors like Computer Associates, McAfee, and Symantec to address demand by acquiring their way into the market.
