The Data Security Maturity Model (DSMM) helps organizations protect their sensitive information by developing a data-centric approach to security. Overall, the DSMM shares a similar structure with some of the most well-known security frameworks in the industry, most notably the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. This will hopefully allow organizations to integrate it more easily into their existing security and privacy efforts and augment their investment in other frameworks.

## Why use DSMM
## Why use DSMM?

Many security models cover key aspects of data security and privacy, but the DSMM brings a uniquely "data-centric" approach not found in other models. While traditional data protection strategies have typically focused on narrowly defined use cases or specific threats, the DSMM aims to help organizations take a broad, more consistent approach to protect any or all of their data. Such an approach is a growing priority for security leaders as enterprise data has become incredibly dynamic both in terms of how it is used and where it resides. No longer sequestered in databases, today's data is constantly being used, modified, and shared by users over dozens of applications. Data likewise can exist virtually anywhere, including in end-user devices, traditional and SaaS applications, and a variety of other cloud services.
