Concentric AI Introduces Industry’s First Managed DSPM Equipping Organizations Requiring Managed Services with Market-Leading Data Protection

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Concentric AI, a leading vendor of intelligent AI-based solutions for autonomous data security posture management (DSPM), today announced that its Semantic Intelligence™ DSPM solution is now offered as the industry’s first DSPM as a managed service, equipping organizations which require or prefer security as a service with market-leading data protection to secure their sensitive data.

There is a chronic issue of constrained cybersecurity resources for organizations across all markets. As a result of today’s launch, organizations of all sizes and resource constraints can now discover, identify, classify, and protect their sensitive structured and unstructured data. Concentric AI’s fully managed service combines AI-powered DSPM with expert human management and technology expertise to best protect customers’ data.

“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 Karthik Krishnan, Founder and CEO, Concentric AI. “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.”

Today’s managed DSPM service launch also benefits Concentric AI’s growing channel partner base. The new service addresses challenges their customers have experienced managing other data security products in-house. Partners can also manage the product for their customers as an option, so they can bundle services for their customers along with the Semantic Intelligence DSPM solution.

Concentric AI’s Semantic Intelligence DSPM solution scans organizations’ data, detects sensitive or business critical content, identifies the most appropriate classification category, and automatically tags the data. Concentric AI uses artificial intelligence (AI) to improve discovery and classification accuracy and efficiency to avoid endless regex rules and inaccurate end user labeling. In addition, Concentric AI can 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, with no rules, regex, or policy maintenance needed.
