Wiz and BigID Expand Partnership to Extend Visibility and Control for Enterprise Data to Prevent Breaches

BigID, the leading data platform that enables organizations to know their enterprise data and take action for privacy, security, compliance, and governance, announced an expanded partnership with Wiz, the leading cloud security platform that rapidly enables customers to find and remove critical cloud risks. Wiz and BigID bring together Cloud-Native Application Protection (CNAPP) and Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) to reduce cloud risk and accelerate cloud security strategies.

The partnership enables customers to continuously monitor for critical data exposure to help prevent breaches. Customers can take a data-driven approach when automating security controls in the cloud: making it easy to prioritize risk management based on deep data insight, with the granularity customers need to both protect data and enable secure analytics.

With this integration, customers can automatically discover their data across their entire data ecosystem, prioritize vulnerable data, and mitigate potential attacks based on recommended best practices and playbooks.

Wiz and BigID accelerate visibility and data protection in the cloud:

• Automatically discover, identify, and classify their most sensitive and vulnerable data
• Identify which data stores are exposed to the internet or have other cloud risks like misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and overly permissive identities, and alert on potential exfiltration paths.
• Improve their security and compliance posture by prioritizing high risk data, continuously assessing and enforcing security and business policies, and blocking the attack path to sensitive data.
