Challenge:
 |
Where does “confidential” or “sensitive” information come from and flow to as it moves through your company? |
|
Is it constrained to secure systems? |
|
How do you know if you found all of your sensitive data for data de-identification? |
When companies deal with data governance, one of the first challenges they face is determining where sensitive data is located. The problem is that if you don’t know where this data resides or how it moves about the organization, you can’t secure it or flag it for de-identification and you can’t comply with data governance regulations. The reality is that discovering and documenting your sensitive data by hand is an error-prone and risky process that isn’t technically or financially feasible.
Solution:
Exeros delivers a new approach to sensitive data discovery that significantly reduces project risk, accelerates discovery time over 5X, and makes sensitive data governance, security lineage and data de-identification projects feasible. Exeros Discovery is a software product that automates the discovery, documentation and validation of hidden sensitive data, data flows and data maps between structured datasets, when documentation is spotty or even non-existent.
Exeros Discovery independently examines the data values in multiple datasets to automate the identification of sensitive data and data flows. Exeros Discovery’s discovery algorithms are self-validating so exceptions and discrepancies are found along with sensitive data and business rules.
