Media Honors Latest Update to Company's Flagship Enterprise Solution
NEW YORK, June 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Sensitive Data Manager (SDM) 7.5 is now available from Identity Finder, a leading provider of data discovery, data governance, and data classification solutions. SDM garnered several recent accolades from top technology influencers including SC Magazine, PC Magazine, and Network World. SDM empowers security and compliance professionals to discover, classify, remediate, monitor, and report on confidential information to minimize risk, meet compliance goals, protect reputation, and facilitate business continuity.
"Our customers understand how great the risk of a data breach is, not only because so many businesses have been in the headlines recently, but also because they can use our solution to measure and quantify that risk accurately," said Identity Finder CEO Todd Feinman. "We enable the enterprise to understand where sensitive data is vulnerable, who has access, what the information is, and whether that information is still needed."
Sensitive data management is an innovative process that is critical for any enterprise dealing with data because it gives that data an identity. By knowing what is inside their files, organizations can make better business decisions and employees can interact with it more appropriately. The latest version improves on past releases so businesses can find sensitive information more accurately and quickly in local, network, or cloud storage locations: file servers, web servers, email servers, database servers, and SharePoint.
To manage compliance and corporate governance, SDM allows business units to assign accountability and enforce policies via workflows so they know what is still at risk and what has been remediated. Data identity and workflows are employed to automatically classify data, remediate unprotected information, and monitor the data going forward. Data owners can address security and access problems proactively before sensitive information reaches the perimeter or leaves the company.
SDM 7.5 provides the most efficient and precise method for finding common types of sensitive information, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Payment Card Industry (PCI) data, Protected Health Information (PHI), and Intellectual Property (IP). Businesses can also define their own sensitive data types.
A number of industry experts have recognized Identity Finder's products. SDM was awarded SC Magazine's Best DLP Finalist Award 2013 and received its 5/5 star rating. The SDM endpoint, Data Discover, was awarded PC Magazine's rare perfect score and an Editor's Choice award.
"Sensitive Data Manager makes the daunting task of finding and remediating PII in any size enterprise a much more manageable and organized process," said Michael Thompson of Penn State University in Network World's 'Fave Raves' roundup. "Sensitive Data Manager is truly scalable and its power lies in the flexibility to define virtually every aspect of how and when scans occur, and that it provides all configuration and results information in an easy-to-use, Web-based console."
