Protegrity, the data-security solutions provider, announced a new partnership with Snowflake, the cloud data platform, to enable organizations with high security requirements to employ Protegrity's data de-identification technology in the Snowflake environment.
If a brand wishes to tap its consumer data to provide superior marketing and customer experiences, Snowflake provides the cloud data platform for accelerating those insights; Protegrity ensures the privacy of the data connected to the consumers.
"Protegrity for Snowflake provides an infinitely scalable, analytics optimized cloud data platform with additional security and privacy capabilities that support the major public clouds," said Rick Farnell, Protegrity CEO. "The coupling of these solutions can create a solid foundation for all industries, but especially those that need exceptional security because of the nature of their business. Now, businesses can focus on delivering innovation instead of worrying about the management of environments."
Snowflake provides built-in data security and governance with its unique architecture, while Protegrity protects the privacy of the individuals associated with that data before it even reaches Snowflake.
"This partnership brings together two innovative companies with a common mission to help organizations get the most value out of their data, without any compromises to security or privacy," Vikas Jain, Head of Snowflake Security Product Management, said.
