Immuta announced two key hires focused on growth and strategic expansion on the heels of the company's recent $90 million round of Series D funding, which brought total capital raised to $169 million. These executives will help further Immuta's position as the industry leader in providing modern, scalable data access control solutions and enable the company to focus on global expansion amidst surging demand for cloud-based data analytics platforms.
Immuta announced it is now available to provide automated data access control in Snowflake's Partner Connect portal. While Snowflake Partner Connect originally focused primarily on ETL tools, the partner portal is now expanding to include tools in the data governance and access control ecosystem.
Immuta launched new SaaS deployment option, enabling data teams to implement data access control across their entire cloud data environment in minutes. Modern data teams are moving to pure SaaS deployments for all of their analytics and data science, and they want access control delivered in the same way.
Cloud data access control solutions provider Immuta this week announced raising $90 million in Series D funding, which brings the total capital invested in the company to $169 million. Founded in 2015, the Boston-based company offers a platform that data engineers and DataOps teams can use to automate data governance, security, access control and privacy protection.
Immuta will use the investment to further its market leadership position and capture rising demand for centralized, scalable access control across cloud data sets that are increasingly diverse and distributed on multiple compute platforms. "We've entered a new era in data and analytics fueled by ubiquitous cloud storage, new cloud data management tools, and the rise of DataOps," said Immuta's CEO Matthew Carroll.
By natively supporting popular cloud data platforms, Immuta now provides a single, powerful solution for data teams to automate cloud data access control, discovery and classification, and privacy protection-significantly improving productivity, unlocking more data for more data consumers, and minimizing the risk of data leaks or breaches. Immuta also unveiled new research that suggests the majority of data-driven organizations will adopt multiple cloud data platforms and utilize sensitive data for analytics, creating a large market need for centralized cloud data access governance.
Featuring a new, native integration with Starburst, Immuta's Automated Data Governance platform enables data engineering and DataOps teams to automatically detect sensitive data, write and enforce fine-grained access control policies, and provide an active data catalog of Starburst Presto and other cloud services. "Starburst is a natural partner for Immuta. Both companies are focused on helping data-driven organizations maximize the value of data across complex data platforms and architectures by not just separating data storage from compute, but also separating compute and access control," said Chris Devaney, Vice President, Alliances with Immuta.
Immuta for Databricks - a new, native offering for Databricks customers - enhances data engineering productivity and data security by automating fine-grained access control and privacy protection natively within Databricks and Delta Lake. "Data teams are exposed to new levels of risk, making it challenging to manage and prepare sensitive data for data scientists to access in a compliant, self-service way, but also for those same analysts to securely share and publish their work. The latest Immuta for Databricks enhances automation capabilities required to overcome these challenges," said Steve Touw, CTO, Immuta.
Immuta, the automated data governance company, announced native support for Snowflake, along with new privacy and security automation capabilities, that help organizations fully leverage cloud-based data analytics and data sharing - even on their most sensitive data sets. Enhancements to the Immuta platform include k-anonymization, the latest addition to Immuta's suite of Privacy-Enhancing Technologies, automated decryption of cloud-based data, and a new, native integration with Snowflake that lets joint customers easily analyze and share sensitive data.
Immuta, the automated data governance company, announced a technology and business partnership with Snowflake, the cloud data platform, enabling joint customers to securely share sensitive data with automated privacy protection, while adhering to data privacy regulations and business rules. Featuring a new, native integration with Snowflake, the Immuta platform now empowers Snowflake customers to safely share even the most sensitive data sets securely by utilizing advanced, automated anonymization techniques.
