Concentric AI Adds Data Security Posture Management as a Managed Service

Concentric AI – a company that provides intelligent AI-based solutions for autonomous data security posture management (DSPM) – announced that its Semantic Intelligence DSPM solution is now available as a managed service. This release is designed to equip organizations requiring security as a service with market-leading data protection to secure sensitive data.

With it, organizations of any size or with any resource constraint can streamline discovery, identification, classification and protection of structured and unstructured data. Concentric AI’s fully managed service combines AI-powered DSPM with expert human management and technology expertise.

“This launch makes available Concentric AI’s dedicated team of experts, offering years of experience and a nuanced understanding of the data security landscape, along with our AI-based autonomous data security solution,” said Concentric AI’s Founder and CEO, Karthik Krishnan. “This synergy between machine-learning efficiency and human expertise ensures subscribers to our DSPM managed service are equipped to tackle the most complex security challenges holistically, with our team always available to provide expert guidance and support.”

The release also benefits Concentric AI’s channel partner base, addressing challenges that their customers have experienced in managing data security products in-house. Partners can also manage the product for their customers as an option, so they can bundle services along with the Semantic Intelligence DSPM solution.

The Semantic Intelligence DSPM solution scans organizational data, detecting sensitive or business critical content, identifying the most appropriate classification category and automatically tagging that data. Concentric AI uses AI to improve discovery and classification accuracy and efficiency in order to avoid regex rules and inaccurate end user labeling. Concentric AI can also monitor and autonomously identify risk to financial and other data from inappropriate permissioning, wrong entitlements, risky sharing and unauthorized access. It can automatically remediate permissions and sharing issues or leverage other security solutions and cloud APIs to quickly and continuously protect exposed data.

Concentric AI’s Semantic Intelligence automates unstructured and structured data security, using deep learning to categorize data, uncover business criticality and reduce risk. Its Risk Distance analysis technology uses the baseline security practices observed for each data category to spot security anomalies in individual files. It compares documents of the same type to identify risk from oversharing, third-party access, wrong location or misclassification. Organizations benefit from the expertise of content owners without intrusive classification mandates.
