INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The amount of data that most companies now store — and the places they store it — continues to increase rapidly
With that, the risk of the wrong people managing to get access to this data also increases, so it’s no surprise that we’re now seeing a
number of startups that focus on protecting this data and how it flows between clouds and on-premises servers
Satori Cyber, which focuses on data protecting and governance, today announced that it has raised a $5.25 million seed round led by YL
Ventures.“We believe in the transformative power of data to drive innovation and competitive advantage for businesses,” the company says
“We are also aware of the security, privacy and operational challenges data-driven organizations face in their journey to enable broad and
optimized data access for their teams, partners and customers
This is especially true for companies leveraging cloud data technologies.”Satori is officially coming out of stealth mode today and
launching its first product, the Satori Cyber Secure Data Access Cloud
This service provides enterprises with the tools to provide access controls for their data, but maybe just as importantly, it also offers
these companies and their security teams visibility into their data flows across cloud and hybrid environments
The company argues that data is “a moving target” because it’s often hard to know how exactly it moves between services and who
actually has access to it
With most companies now splitting their data between lots of different data stores, that problem only becomes more prevalent over time and
continuous visibility becomes harder to come by.“Until now, security teams have relied on a combination of highly segregated and
restrictive data access and one-off technology-specific access controls within each data store, which has only slowed enterprises down,”
said Satori Cyber CEO and co-founder Eldad Chai
“The Satori Cyber platform streamlines this process, accelerates data access and provides a holistic view across all organizational data
flows, data stores and access, as well as granular access controls, to accelerate an organization’s data strategy without those
constraints.”Both co-founders (Chai and CTO Yoav Cohen) previously spent nine years building security solutions at Imperva and Incapsula
(which acquired Imperva in 2014)
Based on this experience, they understood that onboarding had to be as easy as possible and that operations would have to be transparent to
“We built Satori’s Secure Data Access Cloud with that in mind, and have designed the onboarding process to be just as quick, easy and
On-boarding Satori involves a simple host name change and does not require any changes in how your organizational data is accessed or
