Object-Level Privilege Analysis
An urgent concern all customers share is understanding who has access to sensitive data. With Dasera’s Object-Level Privilege Analysis feature, you can gain deep visibility into the types of data your users can access. Dasera’s insights will be presented in conjunction with your Employee / Ghost DB User information, showing which specific privileges they have at multiple object levels such as Fields and Data Stores.
In addition, Dasera now delivers a built-in Data Access policy which notifies when Employees or Ghost DB Users gain access to sensitive data. This allows for real-time review & validation, without the need to manually monitor your systems. And like our other policies, this Data Access policy can trigger external alerts within your SIEMs, SOARs, and ticketing systems.
Initially, this feature is supported for Snowflake, AWS Redshift, AWS RDS for MySQL, and AWS RDS for MariaDB. Support for additional database engines is coming soon!
Auditing User Activity
With Dasera’s enhanced Activity Log feature, the platform now records all system & user activity in a central, easy-to-search location. Use the logs to gain comprehensive visibility to all system & user actions, build awareness between data owners, and deliver on your data governance requirements.
DynamoDB Support
We have expanded our NoSQL connector coverage to AWS DynamoDB. We can now classify sensitive data stored in your DynamoDB Cloud environment.
