How DLP helps: Regulates IT Act 2000, CERT-In guidelines and safe digital governance.
Case Example: In 2023, a misconfigured government server exposed millions of Aadhaar-linked records, raising urgent concerns about data protection.
Manufacturing, R&D & Engineering
Why it’s important:
Manufacturers, as well as R&D companies, have trade secrets, blueprints and product designs that could endanger competitive advantage if released.
How DLP can help: Safeguards intellectual property (IP) from industrial espionage, insider threats, and cyber attacks targeting smart factories / IoT environments.
Case Example: In 2024, an Indian automotive supplier reported IP theft worth ₹50 crore due to insider data leakage.
Education & EdTech
Why it’s important:
Colleges and EdTech platforms house student information, research papers and financial data. As online learning and partnerships grow internationally and online, there is a need for governance to prevent identity fraud, plagiarism and unauthorized access.
How DLP helps: Regulates Allows secure digital learning environments.
Stat Insight: CERT-In recorded a 32% spike in cyberattacks on EdTech platforms in India in 2023–24, often targeting student payment data.
