NETWRIX’S NEW PLATFORM CAN TACKLE THREATS

Netwrix Corporation is a provider of a visibility platform for data security and risk mitigation in hybrid environments, has announced the release of Netwrix Auditor – Data Discovery and Classification Edition. The new edition provides complete visibility into where sensitive files are, what content is inside them, who can access these files and who actually uses them, so organisations can mitigate the risk of data breaches and prove the effectiveness of their security controls.

Netwrix Auditor was developed in partnership with Concept Searching, a semantic metadata generating organisation. The solution empowers risk, compliance, data security officers and IT security pros to prioritise their efforts and secure data in accordance with its value or sensitivity. It enables them to mitigate the risk of PII, PHI, PCI and IP being stored outside dedicated locations and apply controls and policies consistently and accurately, so their organisation can ensure both data security and regulatory compliance.

The key features include deep insight into sensitive data, that provides visibility about all kinds of files. It hones in on files containing very specific information — without any downtime or having to create new rules. An ability to accumulate complex, multiterm metadata — not based on phrases, proximity, keywords or preconfigured taxonomies — eliminates the need to re- index the entire data repository whenever a classification rule is added or changed.
