More than 7 in 10 respondents were concerned about compliance with data privacy requirements. 72% were concerned that their Office 365 data could be the target of ransomware and 52% said their organisation has experienced a ransomware attack. The company has just launched Barracuda Data Inspector to help customers automatically scan OneDrive for Business and SharePoint data for sensitive information and malicious files. Powerful data classification capabilities help customers identify types of data such as Personal Identifiable Information (PII), user credentials, credit card information, and more. Customers using Barracuda Data Inspector can identify whether data has been shared internally or externally, and where it’s stored to help them make decisions on how to act on it. www.barracuda.com Accountancy firm implements M-Files Audit, tax, advisory and risk firm Crowe UK LLP, has implemented M-Files to drive digitisation and increase collaboration across its national offices and functions.
