Normalyze, a pioneering provider of cloud security solutions, is helping global enterprises protect their data from breaches and secure it wherever it is stored. The company utilizes advanced AI-driven technology to continuously discover sensitive data, resources, and access paths across all cloud and on-premises environments, identifying security and privacy risks for data at rest and in motion. With real-time visibility and control, Normalyze empowers organizations to rapidly and effectively secure their data at scale.
Since its emergence from stealth in 2022, Normalyze has raised over $26 million in funding and has attracted notable customers such as Corelight, Chargepoint, Fairfield, Netskope, Orkes, Sigma Computing, and Ginkgo Bio. The company’s success can be attributed to its unique approach of prioritizing the most critical data and addressing the highest-risk vulnerabilities first, based on the dollar value of data impacted. By cutting through the clutter of alerts, Normalyze enables security teams to focus on protecting the most sensitive data and significantly improve their organization’s data security posture.
According to Amer Deeba, the CEO and co-founder of Normalyze, traditional data security tools are not designed to scale for the various surfaces and platforms where enterprise data resides today. This poses a challenge for organizations with sophisticated hybrid environments, as they struggle to gain a comprehensive picture of the risks across all data stores. Normalyze addresses this issue by offering a single platform that supports data everywhere, providing security teams with a comprehensive dashboard for both structured and unstructured data. This is made possible through their patented, privacy-friendly data scanners that ensure quick onboarding and the highest degrees of accuracy.
Damian Werts, Principal Security Engineer at Ginkgo Bioworks, emphasizes the importance of comprehensive visibility into on-premises and cloud data, especially in the face of expanding hybrid infrastructures and escalating regulatory requirements. With Normalyze’s hybrid cloud capabilities, organizations like Ginkgo Bioworks are able to evaluate their complete data landscape, regardless of where it resides. This enables them to effectively prioritize risks and focus on mitigating the vulnerabilities that carry the greatest potential business impact.
Normalyze’s offerings go beyond data security to encompass the protection of applications, identities, and infrastructure across public clouds. Their solution allows organizations to quickly discover and visualize their cloud data attack surface, providing real-time visibility into their security posture. This includes access controls, configurations, and sensitive data, enabling organizations to secure their cloud infrastructures at scale.
The company was founded by industry veterans Ravi Ithal and Amer Deeba, and it has received funding from Lightspeed Venture Partners and Battery Ventures. With its innovative approach to cloud security and impressive track record of customer success, Normalyze is well-positioned to continue leading the way in data protection.
