The Business Challenge

With 4,500 staff and a culture of remote working, the organisation urgently needs to know where the corporate ‘crown jewels’ and sensitive information is hidden in unstructured data to ensure security, protection and compliance. As a company that’s decades old, there is scientific and technical information hidden in emails, the enterprise vault storage, hard drives and other unstructured data, presenting a huge risk of data breach.

Manually locating information is slow and inaccurate even when using native tools. This creates an urgent requirement to discover and put structure around unstructured data to protect the business, while ensuring users can access what they need to get on with their jobs. So the business turns to Exonar data discovery

Exonar Reveal is compelling because it can find all the data, wherever it is. Where other products might focus on spotting breaches, Exonar Reveal helps us to take early remediation actions. I’d rather prevent a breach than only be geared up to respond to a breach. We haven’t found another provider that has the depth of Exonar’s data discovery proposition.
