Secure your critical databases with Varonis.

Between production, development, and testing instances, organizations potentially have thousands of databases — which can lead to sensitive data ending up where it doesn't belong. Unmanaged shadow databases, internet-facing database servers, and backups stored in public S3 buckets could also put your data at risk. Varonis provides real-time visibility across your databases to help you manage and improve your security posture.

Manage your database security posture.

Continuously assess your data security posture with real-time, customizable risk dashboards. See where critical databases are at risk through excessive access and misconfigurations—such as publicly accessible ports or unencrypted backups—and immediately take the necessary steps to remediate the risk.

Discover, classify, and mask sensitive data.

Varonis combines AI-powered and rule-based classification to accurately pinpoint the location of sensitive data across managed and unmanaged databases at scale. It highlights where sensitive data is exposed to risk and automatically applies dynamic data masks to protect critical information from unauthorized access.

Detect database tampering.

Varonis monitors database activity and maintains a complete human-readable audit trail to detect and investigate suspicious and risky activity, such as users deleting database instances and snapshots, exporting sensitive snapshots to public S3 buckets, or tampering with activity logs.

“Make Varonis part of your security posture. It gives you an all-around better ability to be able to see what’s going on. It’s definitely one of the best solutions in our toolkit.”

IT Director, Midwest School District

"What I like about Varonis is that they come from a data-centric place. Other products protect the infrastructure, but they do nothing to protect your most precious commodity — your data."
