Peering Through the Clouds Into Evolving Data Protection
Read Our Post
We are thrilled to announce that Dasera has been recognized in Gartner’s Data Security Hype Cycle and Digital Sovereignty Hype Cycle for Data Access Governance (DAG). This inclusion highlights our commitment to advancing data security and governance for all our customers.
Understanding Data Access Governance
Data access governance (DAG) is needed for managing structured, unstructured, and semistructured data within organizations. As outlined by Gartner, DAG solutions provide essential assessments, management, and real-time monitoring capabilities. These tools ensure that organizations can effectively determine, manage, and monitor who has access to their data and rectify any instances of data oversharing.
Why DAG is Critical Now
The urgency of deploying DAG solutions has intensified with the rise of cloud adoption, collaboration platforms, and, most recently, generative AI (GenAI). Cyber threats and privacy laws add another complexity layer, making structured and unstructured data controls vital. DAG solutions address these challenges by offering data access assessment, management, and real-time monitoring, ensuring data security and compliance.
Business Impact of DAG
Historically, DAG products have helped sectors like financial services, banking, healthcare, legal, insurance, and retail with data security and privacy regulation issues. The general availability of turnkey GenAI products has expanded the use cases for DAG, enabling organizations to discover and rectify data oversharing and leverage GenAI features without breaching confidentiality.
Overcoming Challenges
Implementing DAG solutions can be challenging. Integrating these tools across all data stores and file repositories and ensuring feature parity can be difficult. Some products use statistical sampling rather than comprehensive data crawling, which may lead to customer dissatisfaction. Additionally, larger platforms with overlapping capabilities can create uncertainty about the best product mix.
Choosing the Right DAG Solution
Not all DAG solutions offer the same breadth of integration or depth of capabilities. Organizations must select a solution that aligns with their specific use cases. At Dasera, we help organizations discover, classify, monitor, and protect their data, ensuring compliance and security across all environments.
Moving Forward with Confidence
We are honored to be recognized in Gartner’s Hype Cycles for Data Access Governance. This acknowledgment validates our dedication to providing top-tier data security and governance. We look forward to continuing our mission of helping organizations secure their data and navigate the complexities of modern data governance.
