How It Works

Data Guard DSPM

Get Under the Hood of our Breakthrough DSPM Solution

Companies simply don’t have the resources or visibility necessary to fully understand the breadth of their security posture at the data level. That’s because visibility has been limited to a per-environment view or limited at the perimeter.

Visualize and Secure Data Across Environments

DataGuard Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) provides the observability precision and scale that data-dependent organizations need to create a single source of truth about their data—across AWS, GCP, Azure, and on-premises environments
