Prevent Application Data Theft
ZORB Security provides DataShield — application data theft prevention software that shows exactly what data is leaving your systems and automatically stops it when it shouldn't.
Unlike Data Loss Prevention tools, DataShield is built to stop premeditated theft where an attacker deliberately targets case data or critical IP in your application data.
What it does
DataShield sits on a Windows device and monitors everything leaving it at the application layer — Word, Excel, case management systems, legal research tools, client portals.
It validates that data is only going where it should: to the legitimate infrastructure of the approved application vendor. Anything else is blocked.
It does not inspect the content of files. It validates the destination.
That distinction matters, there is no privacy risk and no performance impact.
Key Features
Instant data theft blocking - Stopped in milliseconds, automatically
Zero business disruption - Work continues during attacks, no system shutdown
Effortless operation - No training, no daily management, runs autonomously
Compliance evidence - Automated audit trails for regulatory requirements
Works with existing security - Adds protection without replacing current tools
About ZORB:
ZORB was founded by Dr Mark Graham, who has a PhD in malware detection, 40 years experience in cybersecurity and a decade of experience in university lecturing in Cambridge.
It was a member of the National Cyber Security Centre “NCSC For Startups” programme - the UK government's national cyber security accelerator.
ZORB is an “Accelerate Cambridge” participant. Accelerate Cambridge is a startup accelerator run by Cambridge Judge Business School.
ZORB specifically built DataShield for Windows-native deployment, with no payload inspection and no privacy risk. It is designed to complement existing security stacks.
High level summary:
Traditional data loss prevention stops accidents. DataShield stops premeditated theft.
Suitable for any practice area or business with high risk client data or proprietary information (e.g. case strategy).
Minimum number of devices: 30 per business.
System requirements: Windows operating system.
10 days Proof-of-Value trial available, including findings review to identify application data theft vulnerabilities.
Why it matters
Most law firms and in-house teams already have Data Loss Prevention (“DLP”) tools. DLP protects against accidental data loss, such as an employee emailing the wrong file or an accidental upload. It does not protect against a deliberate attacker who has breached the perimeter and is using a trusted desktop application to steal data.
That is the gap DataShield fills. When an attacker compromises a device, they do not send an email, they weaponise the applications already running: the case management system, the document store, the research platform.
DLP does not see this. DataShield does.
What we think
“The number of high profile and smaller businesses affected by cybersecurity breaches is increasing - many of them could be substantially mitigated if those businesses used DataShield to alert them to where their application data is really going.”
