IQWorks for CISOs

CISOs are responsible for protecting the organization's data assets, but most security tools focus on network perimeters, endpoints, and application security rather than the data itself. Without comprehensive visibility into where sensitive data resides, traditional security controls cannot effectively prevent data breaches. You cannot protect what you cannot see.

Data sprawl across cloud services, SaaS applications, and shadow IT creates blind spots that traditional security tools do not address. Sensitive data may be copied to developer environments, shared through collaboration tools, or exported to personal devices without the security team's knowledge.

Regulatory compliance increasingly requires CISOs to demonstrate specific data protection controls. SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and industry-specific regulations all include requirements for data classification, access controls, and encryption that require data-level visibility.

IQWorks extends the CISO's security capabilities to the data layer. DiscoverIQ provides complete visibility into where sensitive data resides across the enterprise, including cloud services, SaaS applications, and shadow IT systems that traditional security tools miss. ClassifyIQ automatically tags data by sensitivity level, enabling risk-based security prioritization.

ProtectIQ applies data-centric security controls including encryption, tokenization, and masking based on data classification. The platform identifies data stores that lack appropriate protection and provides remediation recommendations. ComplyIQ maps data security controls to compliance framework requirements, generating audit-ready evidence for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST CSF.

IQAgent continuously monitors for new data security risks, alerting the security team when sensitive data appears in unauthorized locations or when protection controls degrade.
