Sensitive data is stored in various formats in your Object Storage Service (OSS) buckets and can include high-value data such as personal data, passwords, keys, and sensitive images. Data leaks may lead to significant economic and reputational damages. Data Security Center (DSC) allows you to identify and classify sensitive data and build a multi-level and dynamic security and monitoring mechanism to trace the usage of sensitive data. DSC uses predefined security management policies to ensure data protection, auditing, and alerting capabilities and provides risk assessment and response, and fine-grained control capabilities of file access. This helps you detect, locate, and protect sensitive data in OSS.
