Votiro, the category leader in file-borne threat prevention and trusted to deliver safe content to industry leaders across the globe, announced the launch of its unified content security platform to provide Data Detection and Response (DDR), combining real-time cybersecurity for data privacy and threat protection. For a decade, Votiro has sanitized billions of unstructured files and served as a trusted source for preventing advanced malware and ransomware from penetrating customer networks. The company’s new platform extends these proven protections to protect the privacy of the data contained within these files as it travels throughout an organization.
Businesses are ingesting and sharing more data than ever before. Sensitive enterprise data and personally identifiable information (PII) often travels through poorly secured channels, including a range of collaboration tools, cloud storage systems, customer-facing portals, and even shadow IT significantly increasing the risk of data exposure or compromise and jeopardizing compliance with data privacy regulations. In addition, with the proliferation of generative AI, companies are ingesting vast amounts of unstructured and untrusted data. Now, with the introduction of market-leading innovations, Votiro is going above and beyond disarming and preventing file-borne threats to detecting and responding to data privacy compromises before they occur, empowering enterprises to simplify compliance efforts and maintain an always-compliant posture.
“Enterprises must allow safe, unstructured data to flow freely, analyze inbound files and content and adopt generative AI-enabled applications without business disruptions. The convergence of threat protection and data security is critical for enterprises to be able to achieve this. With increasing regulatory compliance pressures and persistent attacks on sensitive data, there has been increased demand within the market for a unified solution. Our new platform is the first in the industry to bring together threat prevention, data security, and privacy controls in a Zero Trust Data Detection and Response (DDR) solution,” said Ravi Srinivasan, CEO at Votiro. “Votiro’s Zero Trust DDR capabilities gives security leaders the power to safeguard sensitive data and quickly prevent threats and privacy risks – a game changer for both security operations and data security teams within the enterprise. This team is uniquely capable of responding with rapid innovation and I look forward to the continued innovation we have planned.”

The new capabilities will automatically detect and respond to incoming file-borne threats, ensure compliance with privacy regulations for data in-transit, or leveraged in generative AI applications, provide analytics related to how and when files and data are shared, and continue to adhere to Zero Trust principles. Votiro’s DDR platform encompasses three key functions:
- Real-time Privacy and Compliance Detection and Response: Identify and safeguard personally identifiable information (PII) and sensitive enterprise data. Users can gain visibility into data-related threats anywhere they occur and continuously monitor safe data usage. Customers will be able to maintain compliance with data privacy regulations.
- Proactive Threat Detection and Prevention: Known and unknown threats within incoming content are detected before they reach the endpoint and form a preventative response to incidents. Users can leverage Votiro’s intelligent disarming capability which will move the malicious file through its sanitization engine to be reconstructed into a safe, fully functional file. These reconstructed files can be opened, edited and saved without risk of malware penetration.
- Actionable Data Insights: Provide actionable insights into suspicious file content, true-typing, macro analysis, and external links so organizations have real-time, accurate analysis. Some of the analytics provided include a list of employees who send and receive the most PII, the type of privacy information exposed, the most targeted employees who receive malicious files, the method the threat actor is using, the top malicious file formats, common time periods the organization receives suspicious files, and insight into where PII and files travel throughout an organization.
“Votiro is taking enterprises beyond conventional security measures by providing automatic incident prevention and threat context that others cannot. The platform truly acts as a blend of unmatched data protection, privacy protection and comprehensive analytics all in a single interface. In a world where there are new data breach headlines every day and heightened consequences for both the enterprise and consumer, there is an immense need for Votiro in the marketplace,” Yabing Wang, Board Advisor for Votiro.
Votiro is known for its scalability, speed, and ability to offer open, API-based integrations with existing IT and application providers. The platform complements and seamlessly integrates with other security tools, SOCs and SIEMs.
