Years of work can be
lost to a single leak.
Manufacturers hold valuable IP like design files and formulas. A single insider or vendor breach can expose years of R&D. DLP Defence safeguards your IP, supply chain data, and trade secrets before they leave your network.
OUR IMPACT ON MANUFACTURING
Trusted by leading manufacturers
Protecting manufacturers who can’t afford to lose their edge
For NIST-CSF compliance, we tested several DLP vendors including Netskope. Strac stood out with its quick deployment and immediate, clear alerts on sensitive data movement, delivering fast and meaningful results that enhanced our security posture significantly.

CHALLENGES
Stolen data costs more than money — it kills your edge.
The threat isn’t just cybercriminals. It’s the engineer who emails CAD files to a rival before resigning. The procurement manager who leaks supplier pricing to a competitor. The contractor who photographs proprietary assembly processes on a factory floor. DLP Defence was built to stop all of it.
Challenge 1
Code & IP Theft
Problem :
Engineers may leak CAD files via USB, email, or personal uploads.
Solution :
Defensely detects file types and blocks unauthorized transfers instantly.
Pain point solved
Challenge 2
Supplier Data Leaks
Problem :
Sensitive pricing and supplier data can expose your business advantage.
Solution :
Defensely scans content and flags unusual access or sharing behavior.
Pain point solved
Challenge 3
Process & Formula Exposure
Problem :
Critical formulas and production data may be shared via cloud or USB.
Solution :
Defensely fingerprints and blocks sensitive files — even if modified.
Pain point solved
Challenge 4
Audit Readiness Gaps
Problem :
Missing or incomplete logs delay audits and compliance investigations.
Solution :
Defensely delivers instant, accurate, audit-ready reports on demand.
Pain point solved
HOW DLP DEFENCE HELPS
Built for Manufacturing
Engineering File & CAD Detection
Secure your design files and technical IP on all platforms. Keep your valuable assets protected everywhere.
Detects CAD formats across email, USB, and cloud- Blocks design file transfers to unapproved destinations
- Tracks print and clipboard use on engineering docs
- Fingerprints' unique designs and specs
- Logs access history for all design files and modifications
AI Platform Lockdown
Prevent formulas and design data from being used in AI tools.
- Blocks design specs and formulas entering AI platforms
- Monitors AI tool usage across engineering endpoints
- Warn, block, or log based on file sensitivity
- Protects trade secrets from being shared in seconds
- Creates compliance reports for data governance
Supply Chain Data Protection
Safeguard supplier contracts and pricing from internal misuse.
- Scans outbound emails for contract and pricing data
- Flags unusual access to procurement records
- Detects bulk exports of supplier lists and BOM files
- Alerts when sensitive data reaches unverified recipients
- Monitors login attempts from suspicious IP addresses
CORE FEATURES
Features that power manufacturing data security
Sensitive Data Detection Engine
Identifies 80+ sensitive data types using pattern matching, regex, and contextual ML — including data embedded in images via OCR.
Data Discovery & Classification
Automatically scans and classifies sensitive data at rest across file servers, databases, shared drives, and cloud storage.
Compliance Audit Reports
Generate tamper-proof audit trails on demand — who touched what, where it went, and what action was taken. Ready for any regulatory review.
User & Entity Behaviour Analytics
Baselines normal behaviour per user and device, then surfaces anomalies that signal insider threats, credential misuse, or policy evasion.
Data Leakage Prevention
Monitors 15+ exfiltration channels simultaneously — USB, cloud, browser, print, screenshot, and messaging apps — enforcing policies in real time.
