Data security

Safeguard data and reduce risk in an AI-driven and post-quantum world

Get started

Protect sensitive data wherever it lives. Our data security solutions classify and protect data, assess risk, enhance privacy, monitor access, manage lifecycles, and support compliance—reducing exposure as AI-driven access and cryptographic threats evolve.

Data discovery and classification

To protect sensitive data, you first have to identify it. Gain a full understanding of your data landscape at AI-era scale to properly handle PII, sensitive data, IP, and high-value datasets.

Risk assessment and visualization

Assess and visualize data risks with customizable scoring and categories to prioritize mitigation—especially risks from oversharing sensitive data in analytics and AI workflows.

Privacy enhancing technologies (PET)

Ensure data privacy compliance with data minimization, de-identification, masking, and encryption for data at rest, in motion, and in use. Deliver future-ready, post-quantum-resilient privacy.

Data access monitoring and reporting

Monitor and report on who accesses sensitive data, remediate excessive rights, and detect unusual patterns—including non-human access that may increase exposure and breach risk.

Defensible deletion and data lifecycle management

Defensibly manage data lifecycles with policies based on content, age, permissions, relevance, and risk—reducing exposure from stale data that could surface in AI-driven search, analytics, or sharing.

Responding to information requests

Respond to audits, DSARs, and legal inquiries efficiently with streamlined information request management—maintaining compliance even as AI initiatives drive rapid data growth.
