In fact they likely also had employee training, phishing simulations, GRC policies, EDR, and all the other InfoSec protections you have… so why do you feel safe? What are you doing better than MGM, T-Mobile, Activision, or MailChimp? The industry is evolving fast, hackers are getting smarter, and reactive cybersecurity is no longer sufficient. Top combat this, the world's top CISOs are now investing into External Data Privacy (EDP) as an effective way to proactively harden their defenses against breaches. The most successful method of cyber attack is currently PII infused social engineering, and a strong EDP defense posture shrinks your attack surface and makes it harder for hackers or AI to craft that hyper-targeted spear phishing message. Privacy Bee is the most trusted enterprise-grade EDP platform with over 1,500+ business clients.
