DataBee gives customers flexibility with
Databricks Data Intelligence Platform integration and introduces
new security capabilities and PCI-DSS 4.0 preparedness with its
latest 2.0 release
Comcast Technology Solutions (CTS) today announced that its
DataBee business unit, which developed and provides the DataBee
security data fabric platform, has signed a strategic technology
partnership agreement with Databricks, the Data and AI company.
DataBee is now integrated with Databricks’ Data Intelligence
Platform, expanding its data lake integrations in keeping with its
goal of supporting a customer’s data lake of choice.
CTS also announced the general availability of DataBee 2.0,
featuring new capabilities supporting SIEM optimization, security
hygiene, and making security compliance a continuous and pain-free
process. These enhancements are especially timely as enterprises
grapple with new or updated compliance requirements such as PCI-DSS
4.0 and the SEC’s cybersecurity disclosure rule.
“We’ve been impressed both by DataBee’s ability to connect
disparate security and IT data sources with business context and by
how the results it delivers enable customers to improve security,
risk and compliance initiatives,” said Roger Murff, VP of
Technology Partners at Databricks. “Mutual customers will now be
able to easily onboard, transform and analyze critical security
data alongside their enterprise data to improve cybersecurity
outcomes – all from directly within the Databricks platform.”
The DataBee security data fabric platform works with a
customer’s data lake to collect, correlate and enrich data so that
it can deliver the deep insights that help organizations remain
competitive, secure and compliant. Thousands of organizations use
Databricks’ Data Intelligence Platform to unify their data,
analytics and AI initiatives. Combined, DataBee and Databricks
allow large enterprises to quickly and cost-effectively unite
enterprise data with security data for AI-powered insights that
deliver economic value and improved security and compliance.
“Our mantra is ‘connected data that works for everyone’ and to
do this we need to support the tools and technologies our customers
are already using, which is why we’re delighted to have this
integration with the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform,” said
Nicole Bucala, Vice President and General Manager, DataBee.
“Together, Databricks and DataBee are providing the data platforms
and intelligence that organizations need to put the full power of
their data to work for them in this fast-moving, AI fueled
world.”
DataBee 2.0
In addition to the Databricks integration, the 2.0 updates to
the DataBee security data fabric platform include:
DataBee for Security Threats
- SIEM optimization makes it easier and significantly more
affordable for security teams to obtain security insights from high
volumes of data. Using active detection streams, security insights
can be detected in log data as it’s being streamed to its
destination. Now, customers can ‘leave no data behind’ while
maximizing the value of their data lake and SIEM investments.
- Insider threat hunting powered by Entity Resolution
leverages Comcast’s patented technology, Entity Resolution, to
track users or devices across any security event regardless of the
data source. This eliminates the need to manually build
correlations between entities, allowing both analysts and the
analytics they run to rely on a single unique identifier for any
user or device.
- Security hygiene uses data sourced and analyzed from an
organization’s environment to automatically and dynamically
discover assets and suggest owners, helping organizations improve
asset inventory by uncovering insights missing from an
organization’s configuration management database (CMDB).
DataBee for PCI-DSS 4.0 Preparedness
Building upon capabilities already provided by DataBee CCM, its
continuous controls monitoring (CCM) solution, DataBee is now
offering DataBee Continuous PCI, designed to help customers meet
the new PCI-DSS 4.0 requirements.
This new CCM feature for PCI-DSS 4.0 preparedness provides
automated, proactive monitoring for key PCI-DSS 4.0 controls,
dramatically reducing the amount of time governance, risk and
compliance (GRC) teams have to spend on manually gathering the data
necessary for periodic compliance reports and reducing complexity.
DataBee Continuous PCI enables customers to identify compliance
stakeholders using data they can trust, and to conduct proactive
compliance remediations that enhance security and reduce compliance
violations.
DataBee 2.0 for the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform is now
available on AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
All other 2.0 capabilities are also available immediately on the
Snowflake Data Cloud.
