Data visibility also helps organizations gain insight into what data is sensitive, where that data resides, and protect it appropriately, which enables security teams to prioritize security controls and allocate resources appropriately.

Minimizing the MTTD ensures that even though data and its use constantly changes, organizations have the ability to detect when their security posture on sensitive data is impacted.

Organizations often fail to consider the operational overhead and costs involved when using a data security solution, such as a data security posture management solution.

Before choosing a data security solution, organizations must evaluate the scale of how much data, the type of data, and the locations of data the product can assess.

If a real-time data visibility solution is integrated with the MITRE Attack framework, it becomes easier to map tactics, techniques, and procedures that are related to data, helping security teams understand the nature of the threat and its possible progression.

Organizations need to understand the threat landscape, particularly if there are potential threats or vulnerabilities that might target specific data types, and then prioritize the data that is at an increased risk of compromise.
