Welcome! Here you will find a comprehensive set of resources focused on data protection and a forum to interact with the DMF's Data Protection Initiative’s community.
Members are working to organize and unify this emerging marketplace by defining new metrics, implementation guides, and reference models. Our goal is to build the knowledge base and training capabilities to become the worldwide authority on data protection and retention. These activities support all of our constituents (vendors, IT, regulatory agencies, and channel partners) to better understand and implement data protection solutions.

About the Data Protection Initiative
The Data Protection Initiative (DPI) was created by the DMF to allow industry leaders and participants to come together into a community to focus on defining, implementing, qualifying, and teaching improved methods for the protection and retention of data and information. The DPI operates as an online virtual community, sharing work efforts, training programs, and outreach services such as research, whitepapers and training, and educational courses. This portal’s chief objective is to serve IT professionals and will define and build certification programs, education, training, and a world-class collaborative information portal with global influence and reach. The DPI’s goal is to build the knowledge base and training capabilities to become the worldwide authority on data protection, helping all of the SNIA’s constituents (vendors, IT, regulatory agencies, and channel partners) to better understand and implement data protection solutions. |
