CASE STUDIES
Read how LightBeam has helped customers identify shadow data, achieve GDPR compliance quickly, and more.
InfoObjects Builds Strong Customer Trust and Strengthens Data Security Posture with LightBeam
Lack of clarity on data sharing with partners, concerns about customer data security, and compliance with GDPR for scaling in the European market.
InfoObjects was looking for a comprehensive solution to integrate sensitive data discovery, classification, and compliance across their data infrastructure. Ensure that every employee was responsible for securing client data with appropriate security and privacy measures.
Identity-Centric Access
Prevent unauthorized access with identity-aware controls. LightBeam ensures only the right people can access sensitive data, even as roles change.
Fully Automated DSRs
Speed up privacy compliance with fully automated Data Subject Requests. Instantly locate and process personal data by mapping it to the correct identities and all of their data.
Policy-Driven Governance
Govern data with identity at the core—apply precise retention, residency, and access policies that evolve with each individual’s status and risk level.
Redaction
Redacting sensitive information is key to minimizing the risk of unauthorized exposure.
You can perform redaction on-demand or as part of an automated policy, ensuring only essential information is accessible. This approach helps maintain compliance and protects against potential breaches.
Deletion
Remediating risk involves eliminating the potential for exposure by not retaining unnecessary data in the first place. With simple, customizable rules, you can automatically delete data that is irrelevant or no longer required, significantly reducing your risk footprint.
Archival
Archiving data is crucial for effective risk management. By removing inactive datasets from your production environment and securely archiving them, you can reduce data security risks and effortlessly meet compliance requirements.
Audit Control
Audit Control is critical in a data security strategy because it ensures visibility into every action taken on sensitive data, including modifications, deletions, and other actions such as access and file creation. By tracking these activities, organizations can proactively identify risks and maintain a transparent data governance framework.
Reports
Track user actions on sensitive data, linking each action to a specific identity for enhanced visibility and accountability.
Generate identity-aware reports that document key actions, like file modifications or the completion of Data Subject Requests (DSRs), tied to the individuals responsible and whose data it is.
Customize report formats to meet internal audit needs or regulatory requirements, making it easier to demonstrate compliance and governance.
Alert
Set identity-aware alerts for suspicious behavior, such as mass deletions or file encryption, helping to detect and respond to potential threats like ransomware.
Trigger real-time notifications when specific users engage in high-risk actions, allowing you to address potential issues quickly.
Define alert thresholds based on user behaviors and data interactions, enabling proactive detection of unusual activity and potential security threats
Logs
Centralize identity-aware audit logs that capture all actions tied to specific individuals, offering a clear view of who interacts with whose sensitive data.
Identify behavior patterns by reviewing logs to detect trends in data access and usage across your environment.
Ensure data integrity by maintaining detailed, identity-centric logs of all activities, supporting both security investigations and compliance management.
