Varonis Joins the NetApp Alliance Partner Program
Collaboration Will Help Enterprises Worldwide Gain Control of Unstructured Data Stored Within NetApp Unified Storage Systems and File Shares
(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 11/08/11 -- , the leading provider of comprehensive data governance software, today announced that it has joined the NetApp Alliance Partner Program. The collaboration between Varonis and NetApp provides enterprises worldwide with an integrated data governance solution that enables users to gain visibility into and control of unstructured data stored within NetApp® unified storage systems and file shares.
"Nearly every organization today is suffering from profound organizational failures because they are unable to answer the most basic questions about data, such as, 'Who has and should have access to it? Who is accessing it? Who owns it? Which data is sensitive?,'" said David Gibson, Director of Strategic Accounts and Technical Marketing for Varonis. "By integrating our Data Governance Suite with NetApp unified storage systems, we can offer a comprehensive data governance and storage solution for NetApp's extensive customer base."
Data governance solutions like DatAdvantage® and metadata frameworks such as the ™ are a cost-effective way for organizations to better manage and protect their unstructured data by providing actionable intelligence on access controls, content, and access activity. Organizations can employ this metadata information to support IT initiatives such as entitlement reviews, compliance audits, data ownership identification, records management, domain and data migrations, consolidations, archiving and retention projects.
Four types of metadata are critical for data governance:
User and Group Information - from Active Directory, LDAP, NAS, SharePoint, etc.
Permissions and File System Information - knowing who can access what data in which containers
Access Activity - knowing which users do access what data, when and what they've done
Sensitive Content Indicators - knowing which files contain items of sensitivity and importance, and where they reside
The Varonis Metadata Framework™ non-intrusively collects this critical metadata, generates metadata where existing metadata is lacking (e.g. its file system filters and content inspection technologies), preprocesses it, normalizes it, analyzes it, stores it, and presents it to IT administrators in an interactive, dynamic interface.
Varonis is the leader in unstructured and semi-structured data governance for file systems, SharePoint and NAS devices, and Exchange servers. Named a "Cool Vendor" in Risk Management and Compliance by Gartner and voted one of the "Fast 50 Reader Favorites" on FastCompany.com, Varonis has more than 4,500 installations worldwide.
