Sentra Enhances Data Security Suite to Mitigate Risks of Expanding Data Across All Environments
In an era where data proliferates at an unprecedented rate, Sentra introduces groundbreaking updates with Sentra DataTreks™ and on-premise support, aiming to fortify its position as a vanguard in cloud-native data security. Announced amidst the buzz of the RSA Conference, these enhancements are designed to provide enterprises with a robust mechanism to trace sensitive data flow, tackle emerging threats timely, and achieve compliance with regulatory standards effortlessly.
With data volumes predicted by Statista to reach a staggering 181 zettabytes by 2025, up from two zettabytes in 2010, organizations face the daunting challenge of safeguarding sensitive information amidst rampant data sprawl. Sentra’s cloud-native platform emerges as a beacon of hope, offering continuous visibility into data movement, identifying authorization status, and maintaining security postures to guard against vulnerabilities, thereby promoting data hygiene and movement compliance.
“In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, the task of securing sensitive data within secured environments is becoming increasingly difficult due to the explosive growth and movement of data,” remarked Yoav Regev, co-founder and CEO of Sentra. “Our new capabilities are a game-changer for security teams, assisting them in connecting the dots, assessing data risks, managing threats, and ensuring regulatory compliance effectively. With Sentra, security agility keeps pace with data dynamics.”
Giving Context to Data
Introducing an interactive contextual map view, DataTreks™ equips security professionals with detailed insights on data similarity and movement across their entire data estate. This comprehensive view, when combined with metrics like access, security posture, and threats, enables security teams to understand and manage the impacts of sprawl in both structured and unstructured data. DataTreks™ excels in identifying similar data across diverse environments, utilizing methods such as file hash, schema, and entity match, ensuring data integrity whether on-premises or cloud-based.
DataTreks™ facilitates precise investigations into data flows by account, region, or hosting service, enabling teams to pinpoint data residing, duplication, transformation, or movement locations for rapid, accurate risk management decisions aligned with governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) requirements. Notably, DataTreks™ supports vital functions like data perimeter alerts, providing guidance and recommendations for hidden exposures and compliance violations through detailed access and cloud entitlement analyses.
Expanding Security to Match Data Dynamics
In response to the evolving landscapes of data handling, Sentra broadens its data security functionalities to include on-premise support for file shares and databases. This expansion ensures a unified data catalog for a holistic view of assets across hybrid infrastructures, presenting a consolidated picture of data exposures irrespective of location. Sentra’s foray into on-premises support encompasses a wide array of file shares and databases, facilitating seamless security and compliance without data ever leaving its origin.
Ken Buckler, Research Director at Enterprise Management Associates, highlighted, “The rapid dissemination and sharing of data come with inherent privacy, compliance, and security concerns, particularly concerning accurate data movement and access tracking. Sentra’s visualization capabilities enable organizations to identify and mitigate complex use cases, automating and optimizing security operations to effectively manage risks and enforce actions across their data estates in alignment with the fast-paced data movement.”
