Managing data security and privacy as a corporate imperative.

Managing data security and privacy has become a corporate imperative, as organizations look to avoid data breaches and the misuse of personally identifiable information that can cost millions of dollars in fines and irreparable damage to brand.

Worldwide privacy regulations are creating the need for businesses to not only manage data, but to make it pseudonymized, easy for end-users to erase, and auditable both in terms of location and usage.
