ExoWatch is designed to regularly monitor a client's Web-based public and private sites to detect and then send alerts about posted data that was not intentionally released.

Corporate, education and government Web-based sites can scale to a compilation of hundreds of thousands of webpages. Additionally, a myriad of documents are posted to these Web-based sites to enhance content, such as PDFs of data sheets, PowerPoint presentations, Excel spreadsheets and more. Most of this content is posted for public use. However, information posted to public websites, open portals and microsites is not protected from Web crawlers and exposure from search engine queries. As a result, confidential data is being exposed every day through unintentional release - often compromising compliance regulations including HIPPA, PHI, PCI DSS and governance data.

"No matter how tight a data loss prevention security IT system is, we know of no fail-proof solution that protects an organization from the unintentional posting of secure information to the Internet Cloud or Web-based sites, said Ted Ernst, Exobox's Chief Technology Officer. "We are discovering very confidential presentations and outdated price sheets buried in websites, complete sales and marketing strategy documents in portals, and the list goes on and on. When the data is posted to a Web-based site that is owned and managed by an organization, there is no question who is responsible for the data leak. The risk of litigation or a compliance penalty is great if an employee or contractor posts sensitive information to a site under an organization's ownership."

Kevin Regan, Exobox's president and CEO added, "It is mind-boggling the amount of information an organization's own employees innocently post for public view or to be discovered by search engines. Exobox is now the first-to-market with a data leak detection product that reaches beyond the IT enterprise and protects corporations, educational institutions and government agencies with a powerful tool that monitors their own Web-based sites.

"We are very happy to introduce another exciting, much needed product to the marketplace immediately after the successful market launch of ExoDetect, our SaaS data leak detection and protection software," Regan said.
