Sensitive Data Is Everywhere and Often Unseen<\/h3>\n\t\t\t

Sensitive information like Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Payment Card Information (PCI), and Protected Health Information (PHI) is present in structured and unstructured data formats and across production and non-production environments. Businesses are increasingly exposed to privacy violations, compliance fines, and reputational damage from legacy databases to cloud apps, often without knowing where their sensitive data resides.<\/p>\n\t\t\t

While production data is carefully secured, data in development, QA, and other non-production environments do not have the same levels of security and permission-based access controls. This leads to unauthorized dissemination\/access of sensitive data, exposing enterprises to regulatory non-compliance that could lead to significant monetary fines and loss of customer trust.<\/p>\n\t\t\t

A common strategy for maintaining security in non-production environments is to mask, scramble, or otherwise replace the sensitive data. Before sensitive data can be masked, it must be identified, and that is no small task considering the large volume, wide variety, and number of data locations that today's organizations have to deal with. The risk of data breaches, regulatory penalties, and reputational damage is higher than ever. As data volumes explode, manually tracking regulated information across clouds, databases, and file systems is impossible. You need a smarter way to uncover and protect your sensitive data\u2014before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n\t\t\tThe Solution<\/span>\n\t\t\t

Know Your Enterprise Sensitive Information at the Core<\/h3>\n\t\t\t

Solix Sensitive Data Discovery is your first line of defense in enterprise data privacy. Built to scan across your data ecosystem\u2014on-prem, cloud, hybrid\u2014it intelligently identifies sensitive data using advanced scanning and auto-discovery capabilities, and empowers organizations to locate sensitive information across complex data landscapes, ensuring compliance with GDPR<\/a>, HIPAA<\/a>, CCPA<\/a>, and other regulations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t

With a seamless, scalable platform that integrates directly into your data privacy workflow, you gain full visibility into where sensitive data lives, how it flows, and who can access it. Solix Sensitive Data Discovery provides data officers with a single pane of glass view into the complete enterprise data landscape (both production & non-production). Using out-of-the-box or custom algorithms, data officers can quickly discover and report on industry-standard sensitive information, such as PII<\/a>, PCI<\/a>, and PHI<\/a>, and confidential information unique to their organization.<\/p>\n\t\t\t

The Solix Sensitive Data Discovery\u2019s ability to scan through structured and unstructured data addresses the key issues of sensitive data discovery for today's modern organizations. The discovery functionality can be extended with the Solix Data Masking<\/a> capability to secure sensitive data.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
