Wind Cave 6.3

Onboarding AWS Accounts at Scale

Dasera's new AWS Organization-based onboarding capability enables fast auto-discovery of new accounts and data stores, so you can effectively monitor data sprawl and enforce governance controls.

Detect Ghost Users

Dasera can now identify database usernames that have access to sensitive data but are not associated with an employee identity (ghost users), detecting access governance violations.

Save Views for Classification Management

Users can generate and save personalized views on the Classification Management page by modifying the filters, columns, and sorting parameters to make reviewing classification more efficient.

Publish Activity Logs to S3

Dasera now has the ability to push all system and user activity logs to your organization's S3 instance within AWS for for centralized audit enablement.

Wind Cave 6.1

Automated Snowflake Masking

Snowflake’s masking feature to de-identify sensitive data fields. Dasera can now orchestrate this masking feature automatically to ensure appropriate data fields are masked according to business policies and government regulation.

Azure Active Directory

You can now configure Dasera to automatically sync with your Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Doing so allows you to control which specific employees are imported, map their Azure AD attributes (both default & custom) to Dasera fields, and leverage these values to trigger policies.

Object-Level Data Ownership

Dasera's Role Based Access Controls (RBAC) has been expanded to assign data owners at the data store, database, schema and/or table level enabling clear accountability and improved data governance.

Collector Deployment Improvements

Improvements have been made to the collector system to make new collector creation quick and easy and ensure your data owners and security personnel remain operational no matter the size or quantity of your data stores.

Expanded PCI Classifications

Dasera's classification engine has been enhanced to serve financial services companies with a list of new PCI built-in sensitive data type classifiers including Bank Routing Number, Swift Code, and Tax Identification Number.

Use Dasera collectors to boost your performance in multiple clouds and maintain the flow of metadata required by the Dasera application without opening your networks to undesired traffic.

Control Permissions with Role-Based Access Controls

Level-up your data governance programs by using RBAC to delegate classification responsibilities to your data owners and business policy management to your security & compliance teams.

Understand Risk Insights Via Our New Summary Dashboard

Use a new unified dashboard to identify the multiple risks that Dasera detects — including data store misconfiguration, data access, and data-in-use risks — and understand which remediation paths offer the highest return.

Onboarding Google Public Cloud Accounts at Scale

Rapidly onboard multiple GCP projects at once, leading to faster & more-comprehensive discovery and scanning of your data stores.

Detect Misconfiguration Risk when Data Stores are Discovered

As you connect infrastructure to Dasera, gain immediate visibility to potential risks & problematic security configurations like disabled backups, missing encryption, or inadvertent enabling of public access.

Assign Use & Purpose to All Levels of Data

In addition to tagging your classification fields, now you can also apply tags up the chain, to tables, schemas, and databases. Combine this with ingesting tags from your Snowflake Data Stores to drive your business outcomes.
