What's the Difference Between CSPM and DSPM?

DSPM vs. CSPM: What's the Difference?

One of the most frequently asked questions about Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) is how it differs from Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM).

In this short explainer, Daniel Suissa, Data Team Lead at Sentra, breaks down the key differences between these two critical approaches to cloud security.

Watch to learn:

• What CSPM focuses on: cloud infrastructure misconfigurations and vulnerabilities
• What DSPM focuses on: how sensitive data moves, who can access it, and where it may be at risk
• Why DSPM is essential for securing the data itself—not just the environment around it

Perfect for security and compliance leaders evaluating modern cloud data protection strategies.
