Sensitive Data Discovery and Classification
Thales CipherTrust Data Discovery and Classification helps your organisation get complete visibility into your sensitive data with efficient data discovery, classification and risk analysis across heterogeneous data stores – the cloud, big data and traditional environments – in your enterprise.
Simple to deploy and use, it provides you with a single pane of glass that allows you to get a clear understanding of what sensitive data you have, where it’s located and its risks of exposure. With rich visualisations and detailed reports, you can more easily uncover and close your gaps, make better decisions about third-party data sharing and cloud migration and proactively respond to data privacy and security regulations including GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, PCI DSS and HIPAA.

Effective solution for enterprise-wide data privacy
Thales CipherTrust Data Discovery and Classification efficiently identifies structured as well as unstructured sensitive data on-premises and in the cloud. Supporting both agentless and agent-based deployment models, the solution provides built-in templates that enable rapid identification of regulated data, highlight security risks and help you uncover compliance gaps. A streamlined workflow exposes security blind spots and reduces remediation time. The detailed reporting supports compliance programmes and facilitates executive communication.
Complete visibility and control
A centralised console with rich visualisations and detailed reports offers a clear view of sensitive data and its risks. This makes it easy for your organisation to uncover and close privacy gaps, prioritise remediation and make informed decisions about third-party data sharing and privacy concerns before a digital transformation implementation.
Accelerated path to compliance
The crucial first step in compliance is to understand what constitutes sensitive data, where and how it is stored and who can access it. Efficient scans enable you to build a strong foundation for your overall data privacy and security. Detailed reports and visualised charts help your compliance teams demonstrate compliance to auditors and regulators.
Single pane of glass from discovery to remediation
Thales CipherTrust Data Discovery and Classification is integrated with the CipherTrust Manager, which enables your IT organisation to manage your data privacy and security with centralised management. Now, from a single pane of glass, your organisation can set policies, discover data that adheres or violates those policies, classify data, rank risks and apply remediation.
Supports both agentless and agent-based deployment
Thales CipherTrust Data Discovery and Classification is available in agent-based as well as agentless deployment modes. This allows your security and IT teams to ideally mix and match agent-based and agentless solutions for optimal results, while reducing the total cost of ownership.
One solution for enterprise-wide structured as well as unstructured data
No need to go to different vendors for disjointed solutions. Thales CipherTrust Data Discovery and Classification can efficiently locate most types of data across file servers, databases, cloud applications and storage, big data environments and traditional databases.
Built-in templates for various regulations like GDPR, CCPA, etc.
Built-in templates help you get a quick start by allowing you to rapidly discover and classify your regulated data. You can also create your own templates based on your unique requirements.
