Varonis for ServiceNow

We’re excited to announce that Varonis' industry-leading Data Security Platform now protects ServiceNow. This expansion enables ServiceNow customers to secure their sensitive data, prevent data breaches, and comply with data regulations.

Organizations rely on ServiceNow to handle business-critical data across IT operations, HR, and even portfolio management. As the world's most popular IT Service Management (ITSM) platform, ServiceNow is a prime target for cyberattacks and is subject to regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA.

In this blog, we’ll dive into how Varonis’ Data Security Platform delivers automated security outcomes for ServiceNow customers.

Varonis for ServiceNow

ServiceNow is a conduit for sensitive and business-critical data — and can be a blind spot for security teams. Extensive configuration options, customization capabilities, and the substantial volume of data processed through ServiceNow creates significant data security challenges.

Varonis simplifies data security in ServiceNow by automatically identifying sensitive information, analyzing risks, and accelerating remediation and investigations.

Discover and classify sensitive data.

To secure your sensitive data, you must first know where it resides, what it is, and whether it’s at risk. 

Varonis scans your entire ServiceNow environment in real-time to discover sensitive data across structured and unstructured sources, including incidents, requests, fields, attachments, and tasks, like change and catalog requests. You can easily identify concentrations of sensitive data and prioritize remediation. With Varonis’ file analysis, you can look inside files to see exactly where sensitive data hits are found. 

With out-of-the-box classification policies, Varonis accurately classifies your data by sensitivity and compliance rules, such as GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA. Rules can also be customized and created to fit your organization’s needs.

Varonis automatically discovers and classifies sensitive data in ServiceNow.

In addition, Varonis contextualizes this deep understanding of your ServiceNow data within your entire data environment. With this single-pane-of-glass view, you can easily identify all of your sensitive and regulated data.

Analyze risk and exposure.

Data security doesn’t end at discovery and classification. Varonis analyzes configurations and data risk to prevent data exposure and breaches proactively. With a deep understanding of the interconnection between activity and sensitivity, Varonis enables you to proactively remediate issues in ServiceNow. With this information, Varonis identifies risks like sensitive data with public access, shadow admin accounts, and misconfigured user criteria.

Proactively remediate risk and accelerate investigations.

Varonis makes it easy to identify data risk with an in-depth audit trail that correlates activity and events with sensitivity. For example, easily identify when privilege escalation is followed by modifications to sensitive data.

Varonis provides a granular view of data activity in ServiceNow to accelerate investigations and audits.
