Integrated solution empowers data owners and stewards to automatically enforce data governance and security policies across all analytics tools
Okera, which enables companies to secure data access at scale, announced an integration with the Collibra Data Intelligence Platform. This allows data owners and stewards to enable classification attributes defined in Collibra to then automatically create and enforce fine-grained data access control (FGAC) policies via Okera. The integration makes it easier and faster to ensure compliance with evolving privacy regulations, including GDPR and CCPA.
Collibra’s cloud-based platform connects IT and the business, empowering digital enterprises to build a data-driven culture and turn data into a strategic, competitive asset. Okera’s secure data access platform unlocks the full potential of a company’s data, enabling secure, responsible self-service analytics at scale through dynamic enforcement of data access policies. The integrated solution improves compliance, saves time, eliminates repetitive work, and increases business efficiency by:
- Automating policy enforcement – Policies can be defined in Okera leveraging classification of attributes from Collibra. These policies will then be automatically enforced at query time. This allows the enterprise to leverage their pre-existing workflows and attributes, and saves the governance team members and/or data stewards from doing repetitive work.
- Responsiveness to regulatory change – Because policy enforcement happens dynamically within Okera, any policy changes made in Collibra due to changes in regulations or internal governance standards are transparently enforced by Okera the next time an analyst runs a query.
- Creating a unified metadata layer – Collibra is a rich source of manually curated business metadata, while Okera focuses on technical metadata with automatic discovery and tagging of sensitive data. With the integration, enterprises gain a single source of truth in Collibra for all metadata, whether the data resides in legacy systems or in the cloud.
- Information access with speed and scale – Okera’s platform vision is to enable self-service analytics with responsible data access and governance across distributed environments—giving you the ability to explore your data’s potential like never before at the last mile where it counts!
