ALTR makes it easy for enterprises of all sizes to know, control and unlock their data within Snowflake’s Data Cloud. Implemented as a no-code, cloud-native solution, and utilizing Snowflake’s native governance and security features, ALTR’s technology allows companies to enjoy enterprise-level data control and protection that is easy to implement, manage and maintain. This ensures that valuable sensitive data can be both utilized across the business while staying secure.
As part of the Snowflake Governance Accelerated Program, ALTR has added integrations with Snowflake governance features including:
- Dynamic Data Masking: ALTR simplifies how organizations implement and maintain masking policies to protect private information in Snowflake. With ALTR, Snowflake users can see the data and roles their governance policies are applied to and implement new or modify existing masking policies, all without writing any SQL code.
- Access History: ALTR automatically visualizes data access history for Snowflake users in both a user-friendly heatmap and timeline view. Customers use this intelligence to audit and report on data access, confirm governance policies are being enforced correctly and identify areas where new policies can be applied to mitigate the risk of security threats.
- Object Tagging: ALTR has pre-built support for Snowflake’s upcoming Native Classification feature, which relies on object tagging to discover and classify data directly in Snowflake without customer data needing to leave the platform. Using ALTR, customers can automate the discovery and classification process without writing any code.
As Snowflake continues to make new governance capabilities available, including features like Row Access Policies, ALTR’s integration approach ensures it can continue to quickly deliver new functionality to its customers, enabling them to fully protect and unlock the potential of their data.
Snowflake customers can also sign up for the ALTR Free Plan for free data governance and security and start classifying, visualizing, controlling and securing their cloud data in minutes with just a few clicks. Customers can stay on the full-featured ALTR Free plan forever or upgrade to ALTR’s Enterprise plans to take advantage of ALTR’s enterprise platform and security integrations, management API, patented tokenization-as-a-service product and other features.
