At Fortra, we believe security should power innovation, not slow it down. We see data security as a growth enabler, giving our customers the confidence to move forward with initiatives like cloud migration, distributed teams, and AI adoption. First, we help you find all your sensitive data wherever it lives, eliminating all blind spots. Next, Fortra automatically classifies your sensitive data using AI-driven analysis and OCR, then applies a persistent label that stays with it. Your team has clear visibility and control at all times. Finally, we protect your data wherever it moves with a single policy engine. That means consistent DLP policies to prevent unwanted data loss, whether through Gen AI tools, email, or at the endpoint. And it all happens without slowing your teams down. The result? You can adopt AI faster, move to the cloud with confidence, and collaborate across teams, all without increasing risk. Fortra helps you protect your data so you can use it, not avoid it.

TL;DR

  • Fortra positions data security as a growth enabler, allowing businesses to pursue cloud migration, AI adoption, and distributed collaboration without increasing risk.
  • The platform discovers sensitive data across all environments, automatically classifies it using AI and OCR, and applies persistent labels that maintain visibility and control.
  • A unified policy engine enforces consistent DLP policies across generative AI tools, email, and endpoints without creating operational friction for teams.

Summary

This brief overview presents Fortra's approach to data security as an enabler of business growth rather than an impediment. The company positions its solution as addressing the modern challenge of protecting sensitive data while enabling strategic initiatives like cloud migration, distributed workforce management, and AI adoption. Fortra's platform offers three core capabilities: comprehensive data discovery across all environments to eliminate visibility gaps, AI-driven automatic classification with persistent labeling that follows data wherever it moves, and unified policy enforcement through a single engine that applies consistent DLP controls across generative AI tools, email, and endpoints. The emphasis throughout is on maintaining security without creating friction for business operations, allowing organizations to pursue innovation with confidence rather than avoiding data use due to risk concerns.
