Overview
Organizations house petabytes of data across myriads of data repositories. Heterogeneous data sources reside in big data platforms, collaboration systems, cloud-based file-sharing services, legacy mainframe systems, emails, PDFs.
Grappling with such massive data volumes, diverse repository types, and varying data sensitivity levels makes data discovery and security a challenge. In addition regulatory mandates such as HIPAA, SOX, GDPR, PCI compliance compound the complexity around data integrity, confidentiality, and security.
An approach to secure data begins with knowing what data you hold, where it’s located, and its context, before applying policies to comply with various privacy and security mandates. Post this, businesses can roll out data security measures with confidence such as encryption, tokenization, and HSMs. These technologies secure data from compromise and ensure compliance controls.
Fortanix Solution
The Fortanix and BigID partnership powers intelligent data protection at scale by bringing together the data-discovery and control from BigID with Fortanix’s data-protection capabilities.
Together, these solutions enable users to trigger data-protection with greater precision, allowing organizations to get more value from their data.
The BigID platform auto-discovers and classifies all data while tagging sensitive data. Policies are applied to trigger actions to protect data assets. Fortanix provides the data encryption and tokenization to protect the sensitive data.
