Compliance Without Compromise

Governance and Audit

At the core of this compliance architecture is the Enterprise Security Administrator (ESA), which provides centralized governance for data security policies. Security administrators can define, deploy, and audit these policies across systems and environments, ensuring consistency and compliance. The ESA integrates seamlessly with frameworks such as LDAP for identity management, SIEM for monitoring and logging, and HSM for encryption key management. This centralized approach ensures visibility, traceability, and auditability to meet regulatory requirements.

1. Data Protection at the Point of Ingestion

Sensitive data is protected immediately upon entering the corporate environment, whether sourced from applications, customer portals, or business systems. Application protectors integrated into middleware and streaming pipelines ensure that security policies are applied consistently, adhering to the “Data Protection by Design and Default” principle. This prevents unprotected data from propagating through the system.

2. Storage-Level Security

Sensitive data stored in SQL and NoSQL databases is encrypted at the column and row level, ensuring even privileged users cannot access unprotected data. This granular encryption aligns with compliance mandates that require strict controls over data at rest. Authorized decryption workflows retrieve and process the data securely while maintaining privacy.

3. Policy-Enforced Data Consumption

At the data virtualization layer, security policies managed by the ESA govern access to sensitive data. Queries from BI and reporting tools are evaluated against these policies, ensuring that data is decrypted only for authorized users. This enforces compliance with principles like least privilege and supports secure, controlled data access.
