“We've heard directly from data leaders, and 40% of them have stated data privacy, protection and compliance as their top challenges when managing their data strategy priorities. To address these needs, we are excited to launch our Cloud Data Access Management as part of a holistic data access and governance solution on IDMC,” said Jitesh S Ghai, Chief Product Officer at Informatica.
