New York-based data security and analytics provider, Varonis Systems, Inc, announced a new least privilege automation capability for Microsoft 365, Google Drive and Box. The new capability continuously removes unnecessary data risk without human intervention. The autonomous remediation engine furthers Varonis’ mission to deliver effortless data security outcomes to customers.

According to Varonis, unlike other solutions that take an all-or-nothing approach, its cloud-native platform makes intelligent decisions about who needs access to data and who doesn’t based on usage, data sensitivity and exposure. Organizations can customize remediation policies to fit their security and compliance requirements, and least privilege automation continually enforces them without impacting collaboration.

“When excessive data access goes unchecked, a single compromised user or rogue insider can inflict untold damage on a business,” says Jim Reavis, co-founder and chief executive officer, cloud security alliance. “Reducing the data blast radius is a top priority for CISOs, but manual remediation isn’t possible with today’s pace of data growth and collaboration.”

The average company’s cloud environment has more than 40 million unique permissions and 157,000 sensitive records exposed to the internet. Least privilege automation ends collaboration risk by removing public and organization-wide exposure created via sharing links and unused entitlements.

“With the launch of our new SaaS platform, our mission is to solve our customers’ critical data security challenges with automation — and that starts by ending excessive data access with the industry’s first fully autonomous remediation engine,” says Varonis Chief Technology Officer David Bass. “We offer the only scalable way to eliminate collaboration risk and continually keep data exposure low across today’s most critical data stores.”
