Frequently Asked Questions

What is data security posture management?

Data security posture management, or DSPM, is the practice of discovering sensitive data, understanding how it is exposed, and prioritizing remediation. Data Posture 360 applies that discipline to protected resources so teams can investigate risk and take action.

Does Data Posture 360 work on backup data?

Yes. Data Posture 360 analyzes Commvault-protected resources and surfaces sensitivity, exposure, data age, duplicates, and policy violations. Those insights can then be used to guide governance, remediation, and recovery decisions without adding broad production-side scanning everywhere.

Can it identify overexposed or over-permissioned data?

Yes. It helps surface excessive permissions, exposed sensitive items, and policy violations so teams can see where data is at risk and focus review, deletion, or other remediation steps where exposure is highest.

What types of data can it classify?

Data Posture 360 is designed to classify supported data across structured, semi-structured, and unstructured sources, including PII, PHI, PCI, intellectual property, and secrets such as API keys, with support for custom classifiers and OCR.

How does Data Posture 360 reduce risk?

It helps teams discover sensitive data, prioritize what is exposed, apply governance policies, and remove redundant, obsolete, and trivial data. That combination helps reduce attack surface, strengthen compliance readiness, and improve decisions before recovery.
