Satori, the industry’s leading data security platform, has announced two new capabilities within its platform that will revolutionize the way companies approach data security and compliance. The first of these is Posture Management, a feature that monitors the authorization of users to data across all of a company’s data stores. The second feature is Data Store Discovery, which scans and monitors an organization’s cloud accounts to discover new data stores.
Posture Management is designed to give companies a comprehensive understanding of who has access to what data within the organization, at all times. It scans all data permissions, provides an analytics layer over data access in the organization, and tracks key performance indicators (KPIs) to help improve data access posture. Using Posture Management, companies can proactively eliminate risks of a data breach due to over-privileged data access. In addition, with Posture Management, companies can view authorization permissions over time and at any specific point in time, making compliance audits and forensic investigations easier and more efficient.
Data Store Discovery is another new capability within Satori’s Data Security Platform that allows users to connect Satori directly to their cloud accounts to gain a holistic view of all data stores in the organization. For example, if a team sets up a “shadow” cloud database without proper access controls in place, the data and security teams will know about it immediately and take proper action, such as shutting it down or applying appropriate access control over it.
Both capabilities are available to all Satori customers as part of its Data Security Platform, which allows frictionless just-in-time access to data, with a self-service data portal where data users can select the data they need and get access to it according to the organization’s guardrails and policies.
According to Yoav Cohen, CTO, and co-founder of Satori, “Data access posture management is a critical capability that every data security platform should encompass, and our new Posture Management can help enterprises stay ahead of the game when it comes to data security and compliance. Taking action against data security threats reactively is not enough in today’s data-driven environment. Our goal is to empower organizations to take a preventative approach to protect their most sensitive and business-critical data. With Posture Management, our customers can take control of their data security and manage risk with ease.”
Satori is revolutionizing data security by enabling companies to confidently discover and classify sensitive data, apply security policies and permissions, monitor access to sensitive data, and now, track security posture — all in one place. Its data security platform seamlessly integrates into any environment to automate access controls and deliver complete data-flow visibility utilizing activity-based discovery and classification. The platform provides context-aware and granular data access and privacy policies across all enterprise data flows, data access, and data stores.
In today’s complex environment, with the growth of large and diverse cloud-based data, it can be difficult to know who is accessing what data and when. This can lead to serious data security consequences, including overprivileged access and an increased risk of data loss or breach. It’s crucial for companies to monitor and manage access to their data on a continuous basis to reduce risk and remain compliant.
Satori’s goal is to make data security and compliance easier and more efficient for companies, and with the addition of Posture Management and Data Store Discovery, it has taken a major step in achieving that goal. Both capabilities are available now to all Satori customers. To learn more, visit satoricyber.com.
