"In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, fostering a
unified approach between security, data, and IT teams is
paramount," said Balaji Ganesan,
co-founder and CEO of Privacera. "Posture Manager expands upon
Privacera's existing active security posture management and
remediation capabilities. It balances risk visualization with the
ability to automate streamlined remediations so businesses can
easily identify their risks and take action through one
comprehensive platform. It will also help businesses meet SEC
requirements for rapidly detecting issues and reporting breaches,
should an incident occur."
Taking an active approach to DSPM is critical for businesses to
ensure the ongoing protection of their data assets. Privacera
Posture Manager leverages the data and tags created via the data
discovery process and streamlines the visualization of sensitive
data and classification results, combining that with access
privileges, usage patterns, risk analysis, and remediation
workflows. By balancing risk visualization with the ability to
automate streamlined remediation, businesses can reduce risks,
comply with regulations, protect data integrity, and enhance
operational efficiency, ultimately safeguarding their reputation
and bottom line.
Privacera Posture Manager brings real-time visualization, risk
assessment, access governance, and compliance reporting. Leveraging
its advanced structured and unstructured data discovery and
classification capabilities, the platform detects issues and
remediates them through the automated protection of sensitive data.
This enhancement underscores the critical importance of visibility
into sensitive data and access across cloud systems, which is
essential for improving governance and mitigating the risk of
breaches. DSPM is pivotal in helping organizations meet emerging
compliance requirements related to breach detection and
response.
Privacera's platform goes beyond mere discovery and
visualization, enabling automated protection and remediation
through global policy enforcement. The platform helps organizations
improve security posture and access management processes by
providing comprehensive metrics and reporting. With Privacera's
leadership and extensive experience in data security, the platform
stands out compared to newer entrants that focus solely on
discovery and visualization, offering a robust, all-encompassing
solution for modern data security challenges.
Key Posture Manager Product Features Include:
- Data Mapping and Visualization: Users can scan, detect,
and map the location of sensitive data, who has access to it, who
is accessing it, and the related business risk.
- Risk Assessment: Users can determine overall security
and risk posture by displaying over-provisioning, creating base
scores, and determining risky access patterns.
- Integrate With Your Security Ecosystem: Integrate
posture data with your existing security tooling, SIEM, or
analytical environments
"Privacera Posture Manager will drive data democratization by
removing barriers between security and access. A unified approach
where security and data teams collaborate is essential. By
fostering this cooperation and implementing automated safeguards,
we can ensure robust security posture management while achieving
seamless data democratization," added Ganesan. "It's not about
denying access but finding a way to provide it safely and
responsibly. This collaboration is crucial for protecting
businesses and enabling their safe use of data."
