Unraveling DXP and DLP: Halcyon’s Data Extortion Defense

Halcyon has released DXP (Data Extortion Protection), a security solution designed to address gaps in traditional Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools, specifically targeting ransomware double extortion attacks where threat actors encrypt data and threaten to publish it unless paid. The solution aims to provide additional protections beyond what conventional DLP systems offer.

Why it matters: Security teams managing ransomware risk need to evaluate whether DXP fills detection and response gaps in their existing DLP deployments to reduce exposure to data theft and extortion threats.
