XQ is a Zero-Trust Data Governance and Classification Platform that gives organizations full control over their most sensitive information—wherever it lives. Traditional security stops at the network or device. XQ goes further by protecting the data itself with policy-driven encryption, geofencing, and key management that travels with every file, message, or record. This ensures data governance, privacy, and compliance across any cloud, hybrid, or on-premise environment. We help enterprises and government agencies solve challenges around: - Zero-Trust Architecture adoption - NIST, CMMC, GDPR, HIPAA, and FISMA compliance - Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Insider Risk mitigation - Data sovereignty and cross-border regulatory requirements - Securing sensitive files, email, and cloud workloads With XQ, organizations can: - Maintain control of their own encryption keys - Enforce access policies by role, location, or device - Ensure the “right to be forgotten” even in cloud backups - Integrate with tools like AWS, Microsoft Purview, Sentinel, and Splunk Our mission is simple: make Zero-Trust Data Security practical and scalable for every organization. 🔒 Learn more: xqmsg.com
