Digital Guardian deepens relationship with AWS: Amazon Macie integration and Amazon WorkSpaces support. DLP Specialist achieves AWS Advanced Technology Partner status and is available on the AWS Marketplace.
Digital Guardian, a leading security specialist in the field of data loss prevention, now enables integration with Amazon Macie. This extends the protection against data loss from traditional endpoints on AWS and provides uniform data transparency. Amazon Macie is a fully managed data security and privacy service. The service uses machine learning and pattern matching to identify and protect sensitive customer data in AWS.
As companies manage ever larger amounts of data, identifying and protecting sensitive data can become increasingly complex, expensive, and time consuming. Amazon Macie is designed to automate the discovery of sensitive data on a large scale and reduce the cost of protecting data.
Advantages of integration with Amazon Macie
For joint customers of Digital Guardian and Amazon Macie, the integration offers uniform detection and visibility of sensitive data as well as other advantages, including:
- The ability to correlate Amazon Macie results with Digital Guardian Endpoint events, providing insight into the life cycle of files.
- Automated alerting and tracking of Amazon Macie incidents in the Digital Guardian Analytics & Reporting Cloud (ARC) to support complex compliance requirements such as ITAR.
- On-demand reporting and remedial action to provide an additional layer of protection for sensitive data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets.
"In 2020 we announced a number of important improvements for Amazon Macie, including new features, greater global availability and significantly reduced prices," said Dan Plastina, vice president of External Security Services, Amazon Web Services, Inc. "We are excited that Digital Guardian is now integrated with Amazon Macie, so our mutual customers can benefit from a unified visibility of sensitive data stored in Amazon S3 buckets, on local network shares and on endpoint devices. This visibility can then be incorporated into guidelines to protect your data, regardless of where it is located. "
Association of enterprise data protection programs
"Providing seamless integration with Amazon Macie has been a top product priority at Digital Guardian," said Mordecai Rosen, Chief Executive Officer at Digital Guardian. “We believe the federation of enterprise privacy programs is critical to being able to view and manage sensitive data regardless of where it resides. Amazon Macie is an effective service for identifying and securing sensitive data in Amazon S3. With the integration of Digital Guardian, we can offer our joint customers unified data visibility and protection from a single viewpoint.”
DaaS solution Amazon WorkSpaces on Windows
With the release of version 7.6, the Digital Guardian Data Protection Platform is now certified for Amazon WorkSpaces. Amazon WorkSpaces is a managed, secure Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) solution. With Amazon WorkSpaces, customers can provision Windows desktops in minutes and quickly scale to deliver thousands of desktops to employees around the world.
Digital Guardian achieves partner status
In October 2020, Digital Guardian achieved the status of an AWS Advanced Technology Partner. As a result, customers can be assured that Digital Guardian has met stringent requirements, including a thorough evaluation of the Digital Guardian Data Protection Platform by AWS experts to ensure compliance with required security and cloud configuration best practices.
