Varonis Announces Metadata Framework Version 6
Varonis Systems has announced the upcoming release of version 6 of the Varonis Metadata Framework – its core platform for intelligently extracting and analysing metadata from vast, distributed unstructured data stores.
Some of its uses include data governance, data security, archiving, file synchronisation, enhanced mobile data accessibility, search, and business collaboration.
Highlights of the important new features available with the rollout of the Varonis Metadata Framework Version 6:
For DatAnswers – A search API to allow easy integration with other applications and search engines, making it easier to mine, analyse and extract value from unstructured data
For DatAdvantage – Bi-directional permissions visibility for Active Directory objects, reducing critical misconfiguration risks and operational overhead for tasks now being performed manually by IT; additional support for SP 2013 SP1, Exchange 2010 SP3, and Windows Server 2012 R2
For DatAlert – Intelligent threshold alerting, configurable based on event type, location and acting object or any combination thereof, reducing risk by highlighting when and where malware, potential breaches or other issues may be happening
For DataPrivilege – email workflow multi-language support, permissions reporting within self-service portal, granular scheduling of entitlement reviews, and local account management, reducing risks and operational overhead associated with managing privileged access
Yaki Faitelson, Varonis Co-Founder and CEO, said, "Varonis products share the Metadata Framework as their foundation, and our platform really pays off for our customers as we continue to extend its functionality and enhance their investments. Our solutions work with one another to solve many of the problems companies are facing at the intersection of productivity and risk. Data growth is unstoppable, and it continues to fuel the growth of Varonis."
