Okera Announces General Availability of Okera on Snowflake – New SaaS Solution Helps Data-Driven Organizations Simplify Data Access Governance and Compliance

Okera, the Universal Data Authorization company, announced the immediate availability of Okera on Snowflake, a new software as a service (SaaS) offering for the Snowflake Data Cloud. Leveraging the new SaaS solution, non-technical data stakeholders in business, security, and compliance can collaborate with a significantly smaller data engineering team to define data access control policies, validate that data policies are implemented as intended, and self-serve their own data privacy compliance reports and real-time analytics.

“Data governance remains a top priority for modern data-driven organizations who rely on their information assets to gain a competitive advantage,” said Saqib Mustafa, Global Head of Partner Marketing at Snowflake. “Our partnership with Okera enables data-driven organizations to leverage Snowflake’s native Data Access Governance capabilities, and do so in a collaborative platform that makes it easy for all data stakeholders to participate in the definition, validation, and updates to centralized and distributed data access policies.”

Most security-minded organizations are well-equipped to secure data at-rest and data in-transit. Okera secures data in use, so the large investments in big data analytics and data science yield faster, recurring business value. Now delivered as a SaaS offering, Okera and Snowflake allow organizations to focus their efforts on delivering data-driven applications and insights, rather than managing on-premises infrastructure or highly technical policy grants.

Using Okera, universal data authorization policies are automatically materialized as Snowflake data access governance controls for native enforcement. Okera-authored policies are automatically and seamlessly implemented, allowing direct access with Snowsight or SnowSQL CLI, or via indirect access through a BI dashboard or reporting tool.
