Egnyte, a leader in cloud content security and governance, today
announced a new integration aimed at helping customers gain a more
significant level of control over their cloud content through
document classification labels. Egnyte customers will now be able
to leverage document labels generated by Egnyte’s AI-powered
classification engine that is compatible with Microsoft Purview
Sensitivity labels to inform insights and drive actions across a
broad spectrum of security partners, including Netskope, Zscaler,
CrowdStrike, and SkyHigh Security.
With the growing amount of cloud content, businesses need help
to adequately identify sensitive data and protect that data from a
wide variety of security risks. Companies can comprehensively
address these risks by securing their content in Egnyte's
repository and applying persistent data labels to inform insights
and direct actions across various providers in Egnyte's content
security ecosystem.
“The complexity of today’s cyber threats demands a proactive and
unified approach to protect companies’ most valuable and
risk-exposed data assets—their content,” said Vineet Jain, CEO of
Egnyte. “Egnyte has a long history of applying machine learning
models to help customers more efficiently and effectively identify
threats, triage remediation efforts, and safeguard sensitive
information. With the launch of our content security ecosystem, we
are enabling these customers to leverage our AI-driven insights to
gain even more control over their data, ensuring an even more
thorough and responsive security posture.”
The document-labeling integration works with various data loss
prevention (DLP), digital rights management (DRM), and endpoint
detection and response (EDR) solutions to automatically create
labels in Egnyte based on content classification and categorization
techniques, including utilizing generative AI to apply metadata to
the content. Customers can use the Egnyte applied labels to enforce
tactical DLP actions, such as preventing external sharing, coping
to secondary drives, and overall preventing the exfiltration of
sensitive data, securing their content management environment.
“Egnyte’s integration with Microsoft DLP and AIP stack is
helping us address the risk of insider theft,” said Dave Nish,
director of IT security at GP Bullhound. “It is easy to implement
and administer and does not disrupt [our] existing business user
experience.”
This integration builds upon Egnyte's capabilities to create and
manage metadata with customer-driven rules and generative AI-based
classification of customer-provided training data, in addition to
the use of data pattern libraries and keywords.
Egnyte will showcase these features and the complete Egnyte
AI-powered intelligent content platform at the RSA Conference in
San Francisco, California, May 6-9, at booth 4229.
