With the rise of cyberattacks and the complexities of today’s networks and environments, the ability to protect kinetic data as it moves across the enterprise—while remaining compliant—is crucial. To drive intelligent transformation for the enterprise, sensitive data must be shared across and outside of an organization. The need to accelerate data accessibility must be balanced with data protection in order to propel the business forward and create new opportunities for innovation and growth. As new data privacy regulations emerge, data protection solutions must extend protection wherever data travels, across IT platforms, clouds, regional borders, and beyond.
Most data protection solutions are not built for flexibility, leaving gaps for exploitation as data is shared. Unlike competitors whose solutions are rigid, may block access, or damage the integrity of data, the Protegrity Data Protection Platform goes beyond perimeter or endpoint security by providing organizations with precision control over how data is protected, and who can access it—at the field level. This level of fine-grained protection safeguards the data and renders it useless in the event of a cyberattack or data breach.
By deploying enterprise-wide data protection policies that follow the data—whether it’s at rest, in motion, or in use—businesses can freely and securely leverage sensitive data for advanced analytics, machine learning, and AI without putting intellectual property or the personal information of customers and employees at risk. From a combination of protection methods, APIs, policy management, and ecosystem integrations, the platform consists of three core solutions: Privacy Protect, Cloud Protect, and AI Protect.
- Cloud Protect centralizes and simplifies the enforcement and management of data-security policies across disparate cloud systems and tools, leveraging a wide range of protection methods to secure sensitive data.
- AI Protect keeps pace with the exponential increase in sensitive data, data-storage systems, and tools that surface insights and enable predictive analytics.
- Privacy Protect keeps organizations compliant with current regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA. Protegrity protects sensitive data in cloud-based and on-premises applications, and future-proofs businesses as data-privacy regulations evolve.
- If you are providing written answers for your submission, you must provide an answer to this third question: Outline the market performance, critical reception, and customer satisfaction with the product or service to date. State monetary or unit sales figures to date, if possible, and how they compare to expectations or past performance. Provide links to laudatory product or service reviews. Include some customer testimonials, if applicable (up to 350 words):
