Data can’t be stolen if it never leaves. BlackFog prevents data exfiltration from endpoints, stopping sensitive information from flowing to ransomware groups, AI tools, cloud services, and other unauthorized destinations. While most cybersecurity solutions focus on detecting threats, BlackFog focuses on preventing the outcome attackers want most: access to your data. Our endpoint-native platform monitors and controls outbound communications in real time, preventing data loss through ransomware, insider threats, shadow AI, and other exfiltration channels.
