Thales Data Risk Intelligence designed to redefine data risk visibility and mitigation

Thales has launched Data Risk Intelligence, an Imperva Data Security Fabric (DSF) solution that proactively addresses the risks to data wherever it resides. This is the first solution uniting the risk and threat identification capabilities of the Imperva DSF with the data protection capabilities of the Thales CipherTrust Data Security Platform, and follows Thales’ acquisition of Imperva in December 2023.

In today’s modern digital landscape, organisations face challenges in managing security across an ever-growing attack surface while maintaining compliance with regulatory standards, Thales said. With data and operations spread across cloud, on-premises and hybrid systems, security teams require constant, comprehensive visibility into where their data is, the types of data they have, and the potential risks to that data. According to the 2024 Thales Data Threat Report, 93% of enterprises reported an increase in threats compared to the previous year.

The intelligence and contextual insights from Data Risk Intelligence combine to provide visibility of risks to critical data with a unique view of the strength of encryption for data across an organisation’s data estate. With this enhanced visibility, Data Risk Intelligence empowers CIOs, CISOs, and data risk specialists to accurately identify the most critical data that is at risk by severity and likelihood, so that risk mitigation can be prioritised effectively, with clear recommendations for corrective action.

Data Risk Intelligence delivers a confident risk score and clear recommendations for corrective action that are based on a wide-ranging set of data risk indicators through advanced analytics, built upon user permissions, data source vulnerabilities, use of encryption following NIST standards, monitoring of suspicious activities, and other customisable inputs. 

Todd Moore, VP Data Security products at Thales said: “The ability to view data risk in key dimensions across organisational risk, asset risk, and regulatory risk in one place is extremely impactful.

"Data Risk Intelligence is the first of many integrations between the Thales and Imperva platforms that empower our customers to protect their data and all the paths to it. Through our combined platforms, Thales has all the tools to help our customers understand their data security risks and provide a clear set of actions to mitigate these risks.” 

“The risks to enterprise data are multidimensional and organisations are struggling to address the volume and breadth of these risks while still maintaining optimal business operations,” said Jennifer Glenn, Research Director, Data and Information Security at IDC Security and Trust Group. 

“Centralising data risk visibility and management offers valuable context about the data – and its vulnerabilities – enabling organisations to prioritise protection where it’s needed most.”

Feature highlights include:

Enhanced risk prioritisation

Combines risk-related intelligence from Data Security Fabric and CipherTrust Data Security Platform to deliver precise risk scores that drive confident decisions.

Comprehensive visibility

Provides a unified view of data risks across the entire data estate, reducing complexity, delivering risk indicators, and recommending protective measures.

Customisable risk indicators

Allows organisations to tailor risk indicators to their specific environment, highlighting the most critical threats.

Encryption integration

Leverages the encryption capabilities of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform to ensure data protection at all levels.

Advanced analytics

Utilises posture-based and machine-learning behavioural risk indicators to identify and prioritise the highest-risk data.

Details

DSF Data Risk Intelligence is available to customers who have a current Data Security Fabric Data 360 licence.
