Sentra Named a Leader in 2024 GigaOm Radar for Data Security Posture Management

Sentra

Sentra, the cloud-native data security platform leader, announced that it has been named a “Leader” in GigaOm’s first annual Radar report for Data Security Posture Management (DSPM). The report highlights the strengths of Sentra as a platform vendor and innovator, including comprehensive data mapping, a range of capabilities for governance and data monitoring and on-premises support while remaining cloud-native.

Sentra, one of only a few cloud-native vendors in the report, has achieved exceptional ‘five-star’ ratings across GigaOm’s key criteria, including: support and full functionality for on-premises repositories; data mapping, where a full data catalog shows data stores and underlying data assets; and, data access intelligence that offers a range of capabilities for both governance and access monitoring. Sentra’s data access intelligence is also enforced through access controls via integration with identity and access management (IAM) solutions. The innovative start up’s strong position in the report is a testament to its laser focus on the benefits DSPM can bring to enterprises and its pure-play solution approach.

“DSPM has become a must-have for security teams who are responsible for safeguarding sensitive customer information amidst data sprawl and increasing cyber threats,” said Ben Book, president at GigaOm. “As data demands continue to grow, the DSPM market will play a pivotal role in mitigating potential risks effectively and ensuring regulatory compliance. Our inaugural DSPM Radar report clearly underscores the importance of understanding where sensitive data resides, who has access to it, and how it is being used. This will be a space to watch.”

On the heels of the company’s launch of DataTreks™ and on-premises capabilities, the report highlights Sentra’s ability to show data similarity and movement between locations, environments and account types, while alerting on shadow, dormant or abandoned data in multi-cloud, SaaS and on-premises. GigaOm recognizes this is a critical competency in protecting data effectively, enforcing proper hygiene, and understanding which movements should be allowed.

“As the digital landscape continues to evolve, data is increasingly dispersed across a range of locations,” said Yoav Regev, co-founder and CEO of Sentra. “Whether it’s on-premises or in a hybrid cloud, having a comprehensive view of data across the entire data estate should be at the top of every CISO’s to-do list. Being recognized as a Leader in GigaOm’s first-annual Radar for DSPM report reinforces the market need for these types of solutions and reaffirms our commitment to help customers holistically protect data wherever it moves whether in the cloud or on premises.”
