The Challenge

Achieving robust data governance, maintaining compliance, and securing sensitive information across expansive data landscapes is more difficult than ever before.

To address these challenges, Microsoft Purview’s data governance and compliance solution is often deployed to identify and classify data. However, Purview is limited in how it approaches data discovery, using regex-based, pre-trained Machine Learning (ML) Classifiers, and Trainable ML Classifiers.

All these approaches have limitations:

Data Discovery Without Rules, Patterns, or Policies

Concentric AI’s autonomous data discovery eliminates the need for manual rule-setting or pattern recognition. Our solution identifies your sensitive data — such as financial records or confidential business information — across all data repositories. Without relying on predefined rules, Concentric AI can adapt to evolving data types and organizational changes.  

Traditional data discovery methods often require constant updates to rules and policies, but Concentric AI continuously learns and improves so that sensitive data is accurately identified and protected without the need for manual intervention.

Context-Sensitive Data Categorization

Concentric AI goes beyond simple keyword-based identification. Our solution understands the context in which your data is used, considering factors such as user behavior, data location, and the relationship between data elements. This means more accurate classification, especially for complex data types like intellectual property or proprietary research. 

By focusing on context, Concentric AI can identify data that might otherwise be overlooked by traditional systems. Our nuanced approach improves data security and helps align data handling practices with your organization’s policies and regulatory requirements.
