First-generation data discovery platforms just don’t solve for modern-day requirements. Among the many challenges, first-generation data discovery software is:
Ketch is a next-generation data discovery and classification platform. Our solution is dynamic, secure, and natively integrated with our privacy management software to enable key privacy use cases like ROPAs, data mapping, and more. But don’t just take our word for it:
‍
‍
Understanding where and what types of personal and sensitive information are being used across your organization's site is often the first step for privacy programs.
First-generation data discovery tools are incomplete and time consuming, relying on manual surveys to fill in technology gaps, or recreating your information in a parallel data lake (security teams hate that!).
‍
With Ketch, data discovery is always-on, giving you a real time view of information used across your business, including data sitting in your vendor and partner systems. Importantly, data stays where it is, with no doubling up in parallel categories or data lakes. Our responsive classification engine applies labels so you understand what types of information you have.
Data discovery and privacy management aren’t separate things. It is impossible to separate data visibility and control from building a future-proof, scalable privacy program. With Ketch, data discovery is natively integrated with our privacy management software.
‍
When you integrate data discovery with privacy management, you enable critical privacy use cases like assessments, DSR fulfillment, and reporting/audits, as well as centralized data governance policy-setting and enforcement. Don’t skip this critical requirement when searching for BigID alternatives.
Did we mention that your sensitive and personal data stays where it is?
‍
With Ketch, data stays in your systems and infrastructure, but you can set access and security policy from the Ketch services interface.
‍
Set and enforce policies on who accesses data and for what purpose, and set security parameters for how data appears on access i.e., plain, masked, tokenized, encrypted, or statistically anonymized.
