The first solution unites the data security capabilities from the Imperva Data Security Fabric and Thales CipherTrust Data Security Platforms to provide highly confident data risk prioritization with clear corrective actions for CIOs, CISOs, and data risk specialists.
Thales, December 3, 2024: Thales today announced the launch of Data Risk Intelligence, a groundbreaking Imperva Data Security Fabric (DSF) solution that proactively addresses the risks to data wherever it resides. This is the first solution uniting the risk and threat identification capabilities of the Imperva Data Security Fabric with the data protection capabilities of the Thales CipherTrust Data Security Platform, following Thales’s strategic acquisition of Imperva in December 2023.
In today’s modern digital landscape, organizations face challenges in managing security across an ever-growing attack surface while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards. With data and operations spread across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid systems, security teams require constant, comprehensive visibility into where their data is, the types of data they have, and the potential risks to that data. In fact, according to the 2024 Thales Data Threat Report, 93% of enterprises reported an increase in threats compared to the previous year.
Empowering Security Teams and SOCs with Enhanced Visibility and Control
The combined intelligence and contextual insights from Data Risk Intelligence provide a unified view of risks to critical data with a unique view of the strength of encryption for data across an organization’s entire data estate. With this enhanced visibility, Data Risk Intelligence empowers CIOs, CISOs, and data risk specialists to accurately identify the most critical data that are at risk by severity and likelihood, enabling them to effectively prioritize risk mitigation with clear recommendations for corrective action.
Data Risk Intelligence delivers a highly confident risk score and clear recommendations for corrective action that are based on a wide-ranging set of data risk indicators through advanced analytics, built upon user permissions, data source vulnerabilities, the use of encryption following NIST standards, the monitoring of suspicious activities, and other customizable inputs.
Todd Moore, Vice President, Data Security Products at Thales: “The ability to view data risk in key dimensions across organizational risk, asset risk, and regulatory risk in one place is extremely impactful. Data Risk Intelligence is the first of many integrations between the Thales and Imperva platforms that empower our customers to protect their data and all the paths to it. Through our combined platforms, Thales has all the tools to help our customers understand their data security risks and provide a clear set of actions to mitigate these risks.”
“The risks to enterprise data are multi-dimensional, and organizations are struggling to address the volume and breadth of these risks while still maintaining optimal business operations,” said Jennifer Glenn, Research Director, Data and Information Security at IDC Security and Trust Group. “Centralizing data risk visibility and management offers valuable context about the data—and its vulnerabilities—enabling organizations to prioritize protection where it’s needed most.”
Key Benefits of Data Risk Intelligence:
- Enhanced Risk Prioritization: Combines risk-related intelligence from Data Security Fabric and CipherTrust Data Security Platform to deliver precise risk scores that drive confident decisions.
