Data Discovery & Security
Understand your enterprise data, where it lives, and how it’s used
Govern your data effectively with a solution that protects the privacy, security, and integrity of data, while providing complete visibility and control so you can reduce data risk.
- Build trust by ensuring sensitive data is known, protected, and used responsibly
- Integrate industry-leading regulatory intelligence into your data lifecycle
- Define and orchestrate policies related to data access, retention, protection, and more
Build trust with responsible data governance and security practices
Discover, classify, inventory, and map sensitive data no matter where it is. With more than 200 pre-built connectors into data sources like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Snowflake, DataBricks, Box, Google Drive, and more, we can help you know your data and apply security and privacy policies to it.
Whether you’re looking to implement GDPR, HIPAA, ISO27001, or any other data governance framework, OneTrust can help automate workflows to ensure you’re meeting all applicable data security rules and privacy regulations. Define and orchestrate policies to reduce data risk, retain and delete data according to custom or regulatory schedules, or minimize your data footprint and attack surface.
Data discovery is the first step in any data governance program. Next comes what actions should ultimately be taken with that digital information to ensure it’s appropriately protected and managed. OneTrust can automate enforcement actions like retention, deletion, movement, and redaction across your data stores, and integrate with existing data catalogs, security, and governance tools like ServiceNow, Jira, Microsoft Purview, Alation, Collibra, and more than 500 others.
See the results of your data governance strategy by reviewing trends in data hygiene, like where sensitive data has been found, and looking at policy violations to identify areas of program improvement. Prove the effectiveness of your data governance initiatives with dashboards, metrics, and reports.
