inDefend is Data Resolve's flagship insider threat management platform — a unified, India-built endpoint solution that protects an organisation from the risks its own people pose: data leaks, corporate fraud, and productivity loss. Most security spending goes on keeping outside attackers out, but a large share of real damage comes from insiders — employees and contractors who leak sensitive data (deliberately or carelessly), commit fraud, or simply waste time — and inDefend is purpose-built for that inside-the-perimeter problem. Deployed on desktops and laptops, it combines three things in one platform: data loss prevention (DLP) that monitors and blocks unauthorised data transfers across every channel — email, USB and removable media, cloud uploads, printing, applications and browsers; user behaviour analytics (UBA) that watches employee activity to flag risky or anomalous behaviour before it becomes an incident; and employee productivity monitoring that tracks application usage, web access and work hours. Built by Data Resolve (founded 2008, headquartered in Noida with pan-India delivery), inDefend protects over 1,000,000 endpoints globally, serves 200+ customers across BFSI, IT services, healthcare, manufacturing and more, and offers compliance advisory for India's DPDP Act and GDPR. TechBag scopes, PoCs and quotes it in INR/GST.

Protecting against risks from your own people — data leaks, fraud, productivity loss.
inDefend unifies DLP, UBA and productivity monitoring.
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Unprotected / signature email | inDefend (Data Resolve) |
|---|---|---|
| The insider threat | Under-defended blind spot | Watched & controlled |
| Data leak channels | Some covered, gaps remain | Email, USB, cloud, print, apps |
| DLP + UBA + productivity | Three separate tools | One unified platform |
| Risky behaviour | Noticed after the leak | Flagged early (UBA) |
| USB copy-out | Uncontrolled | Policy-controlled |
| Cloud/webmail upload | Unmonitored exfiltration | Blocked |
| The vendor | Expensive, distant, global | India-built, local support |
| DPDP compliance | On your own | Advisory included |
Insiders bypass the perimeter and cause a large share of real damage — watch and control what people do with data. India-built, local support, DPDP advisory.
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
A lightweight agent on desktops and laptops that sees and controls data activity at the endpoint — where insiders actually work, and where data leaks and misuse happen.
Monitors and blocks unauthorised data transfers across every channel — email, USB/removable media, cloud uploads, printing, applications and browsers — so sensitive data can't walk out.
Analyses employee activity to flag risky, anomalous or suspicious behaviour — spotting the warning signs of a leak or fraud before it becomes an incident.
Tracks application usage, web access and work hours to give visibility into productivity — turning the same endpoint telemetry into workforce insight, not just security.
One console to set policy, view alerts and reports, and manage the whole estate — DLP, UBA and productivity in a single platform, not three tools.
One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.
inDefend controls the insider threat your perimeter never sees — DLP, behaviour analytics and productivity, one India-built platform, part of the portfolio, and paired with the human firewall.
Control and block USB and removable-media transfers — the classic data-leak channel — with policies on who can copy what, where.
Monitor and block sensitive data leaving via email — attachments and content — across cloud email (Office 365, Google, Zimbra) and clients.
Stop sensitive data being uploaded to personal cloud storage, webmail and file-sharing sites — the modern exfiltration routes.
Control and log printing of sensitive documents — network and local printers — closing the paper exfiltration channel and creating an audit trail.
Monitor and control data activity within applications and browsers — what's copied, shared or exfiltrated through the software people use all day.
Analyse activity to flag risky and anomalous behaviour — the unusual patterns that signal a disgruntled employee, a leak in progress, or fraud.
Score employees by risk based on their behaviour — focusing attention on the highest-risk individuals rather than watching everyone equally.
Immediate alerts on policy violations and risky behaviour — so security teams can respond to an insider incident as it happens, not after.
Track application usage, web access and work hours — visibility into how time is spent, to improve productivity and spot idle or misused time.
Capture detailed logs and evidence of insider activity — screenshots, transfers, timelines — the forensic record for investigation and, where needed, legal action.
Rich reports and dashboards on data movement, risky users and productivity — the visibility management and auditors need, in one console.
Compliance support for India's DPDP Act and GDPR — helping demonstrate control over personal and sensitive data, with local advisory from an India-built vendor.

Most security budgets go on keeping external attackers out — firewalls, endpoint antivirus, email security — but a very large share of real damage comes from inside the perimeter: employees and contractors who already have legitimate access. They leak sensitive data (sometimes maliciously when leaving for a competitor, often carelessly), commit fraud, or misuse their time and access. These insiders bypass most perimeter defences entirely, because they're already trusted and inside. Insider threat management exists to address this blind spot, and inDefend is purpose-built for it: rather than watching the perimeter, it watches what people actually do with data and systems on their endpoints. For any organisation with sensitive data, IP, or regulated information — and that's most — the insider risk is real, under-addressed, and exactly what inDefend is designed to catch and control.
A distinctive strength of inDefend is that it unifies three related capabilities that many organisations would otherwise buy as separate tools. Data loss prevention (DLP) monitors and blocks unauthorised data transfers across every channel data can escape — email, USB and removable media, cloud uploads, printing, applications and browsers — so sensitive information can't walk out the door. User behaviour analytics (UBA) analyses employee activity to detect risky or anomalous behaviour, catching the warning signs of a leak or fraud before it becomes a full incident. And employee productivity monitoring uses the same endpoint telemetry to give visibility into how time is spent. Delivering all three in one platform, from one agent and one console, is both more cost-effective and more coherent than stitching together a DLP tool, a UBA tool and a monitoring tool — the same data activity is viewed through the lenses of security, insider-risk detection and productivity together.
Data can leave an organisation through many routes, and a DLP tool that only covers some of them leaves obvious gaps for a determined insider. inDefend's strength is breadth of coverage at the endpoint: it controls USB and removable media (the classic copy-to-a-drive leak), email (attachments and content, across cloud email like Office 365, Google and Zimbra), cloud and web uploads (personal cloud storage, webmail, file-sharing — the modern exfiltration routes), printing (network and local, closing the paper channel), and activity within applications and browsers. By monitoring and controlling all these channels from a single endpoint agent, inDefend closes the gaps that a partial solution leaves open — an insider can't simply switch from the blocked USB route to an unmonitored cloud upload. Comprehensive channel coverage is what turns DLP from a partial deterrent into genuine control over where sensitive data can and can't go.
Blocking data transfers is essential, but the more sophisticated value of inDefend is in its user behaviour analytics — spotting the human warning signs before a leak or fraud actually happens. Insider incidents rarely come out of nowhere; there are usually behavioural precursors: an employee suddenly accessing or copying data outside their normal pattern, unusual activity after handing in notice, attempts to circumvent controls, or other anomalies. inDefend's UBA analyses activity to flag these risky and anomalous behaviours and scores employees by risk, so security teams can focus attention on the highest-risk individuals and intervene early — a conversation, closer monitoring, or a block — rather than only discovering an incident after the data is already gone. This shift from purely reactive (block the transfer) to proactive (spot the risk building) is what distinguishes modern insider threat management, and it's a core part of what inDefend delivers.
inDefend is a genuinely India-built product — Data Resolve was founded in 2008, is headquartered in Noida with pan-India delivery, and has grown to protect over a million endpoints and serve 200+ customers across BFSI, IT services, healthcare, manufacturing and more. For Indian organisations, an India-built insider-threat platform brings real advantages: local support and delivery that understands Indian business realities and works in Indian time zones; pricing and commercial terms suited to the Indian market rather than converted from expensive global vendors; and, importantly, compliance advisory tuned to India's own Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act as well as GDPR, from a vendor that lives in that regulatory environment. Choosing a capable home-grown vendor for a data-sensitive capability like insider threat management — where the vendor sees your most sensitive data activity — also keeps that trust and that data closer to home. For organisations that value local capability, support and data sovereignty, inDefend's Indian origin is a genuine strength, not a compromise.
inDefend is a capable, mature, India-built insider threat management and DLP platform — strong on endpoint channel coverage, unified DLP-plus-UBA-plus-productivity, local support and DPDP/GDPR advisory, and well-suited to Indian organisations wanting effective insider-risk control without a heavyweight global-vendor price tag. The honest framing: the largest global DLP/insider-risk platforms (Forcepoint and Trellix — both hubs live on TechBag, Microsoft Purview for Microsoft-centric shops, and specialists like Teramind) go deeper on some enterprise-scale DLP, cloud-native/DSPM and analytics capabilities. inDefend's edge is comprehensive, practical insider-threat coverage from one endpoint platform, at India-friendly cost, with genuinely local support and compliance help. TechBag scopes inDefend honestly against the global platforms for your data-protection and insider-risk needs — and often the India-built option is the right, cost-effective fit.

“inDefend closed the insider gap our perimeter tools never touched. USB, email, cloud and print — all controlled from one endpoint agent. Data stopped walking out.”
“The behaviour analytics flagged an employee copying data unusually right after resigning. We intervened before anything left. Proactive, not just reactive.”
“Getting DLP, insider-risk detection and productivity monitoring in one India-built platform — at a price that made sense for us — beat stitching together global point tools.”
“Local support that understands Indian business and answers in our time zone made a real difference. And the DPDP advisory was genuinely useful.”
“Comprehensive channel coverage was the point — an insider can't just switch from blocked USB to an unmonitored cloud upload. inDefend watches them all.”
“The forensic evidence — logs, screenshots, timelines — gave us what we needed for an internal investigation and, in one case, legal follow-up.”
“Productivity monitoring from the same agent was an unexpected bonus — visibility into how time is spent, not just security. One platform, two wins.”
“It's not the deepest enterprise DLP on the planet — the global giants go further in places. But for our needs and budget, the India-built option was the right, effective fit.”
