Reining in Shadow Data: Move Beyond CNAPP

Understanding your cloud security posture does not necessarily mean understanding your data posture. Organizations adopting a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) to protect cloud-native applications are at risk of leaving data assets exposed. One such risk is shadow data resulting from dynamic changes to data pipelines and services across cloud service providers (CSPs) creating hidden repositories where the data is unknown, undiscovered, or unidentified. Due to the complexity of securing multicloud environments, this can pose significant security gaps leaving cloud teams in the lurch. In this session, Terry Ray, SVP and CTO of Data Security, Imperva, a Thales company, and Krishna Ksheerabdhi, VP of Product Marketing, Thales Data Security will discuss how organizations are overcoming these blind spots by effectively leveraging in-depth observability, meaningful analytics, and solid data protection practices to reduce data risk from information that drives business growth.
