Metalogix ControlPoint 7.0 Offers Security Monitoring for Suspicious SharePoint Activity

Metalogix has released ControlPoint 7.0, offering new, embedded security intelligence, and real-time situational awareness into suspicious SharePoint user activity to help prevent data breaches and leakages. With the combination of Metalogix Sensitive Content Manager and ControlPoint 7.0, the platform offers unified management to optimize the availability, performance, and security of content across the collaboration lifecycle.

ControlPoint 7.0 offers intelligent monitoring and content awareness for SharePoint security. The new software product provides real-time situational awareness into suspicious user activity with around the clock monitoring into what users are doing and accessing in SharePoint. It pinpoints unauthorized access and alerts on suspicious behavior including locking users out of SharePoint.

ControlPoint 7.0 features technology that uses real-time machine learning to analyze and detect suspicious patterns of activity in SharePoint and prevents unauthorized access to content. This technology monitors SharePoint continually and alerts on suspicious behavior, tracking behavior anomalies and unauthorized access based on geo-location to protect against both internal and external threats. By providing insight into the content users are accessing, including when, where, what time and how often, ControlPoint can help organizations avoid unauthorized access and usage.

Metalogix Sensitive Content Manager, when used with ControlPoint 7.0, offers data loss prevention (DLP) for securing sensitive content such as PII in SharePoint both in the cloud and on-premises. Sensitive Content Manager provides a high degree of accuracy for context aware identification, filtering and classification of content. 

Sensitive Content Manager offers an out of the box solution for detecting PII, PHI, and PCI inside enterprise content management systems that can also be customized to meet specific customer needs. The combined solution allows companies to discover, classify, and secure documents using advanced neural network powered machine learning, which enables a high level of contextual content awareness inside complex enterprise environments.

Sensitive Content Manager can be deployed to automatically provide almost instantaneous detection of PII within newly added SharePoint Content. Upon detection of content containing PII, the upload can be blocked or quarantined until approved by designated content reviewers. For documents containing PII such as social security numbers, Metalogix Sensitive Content Manager infuses a higher level of real time trust and content awareness to prevent the mishandling of this sensitive data.
