There's a huge gaping hole in Data Leak Prevention (DLP) products currently being marketed that vendors don’t want you to know about.So what is it they don’t want you to know? They don't want you to know their products cannot detect steganography, or information embedded within files with any of the digital steganography applications currently available as freeware or shareware on thousands of web sites across the Internet. This hidden information, in the form of personally identifiable information, stolen intellectual property, or unauthorized images in the workplace, cannot be detected by current DLP products.
But those who purchase DLP systems, which often carry six-figure price tags, must know that the detection capability of even the most technically sophisticated DLP system can be defeated with a simple steganography application obtained for free on the Internet.
Detecting insider use of steganography to exfiltrate sensitive information requires a network security appliance capable of detecting steganography in real-time. StegAlyzerRTS, the Steganography Analyzer Real-Time Scanner does just that.
