Data Security Posture

Views:

Get instant visibility into assets containing sensitive data. Data Security Posture helps you assess your organization's data risk and identify both cloud and local assets with the riskiest sensitive data.

Data Security Posture uses templates to deploy and execute a script in your AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure cloud environment. You can enable Data Security Posture when adding a new cloud account or updating an existing one in Cloud Accounts. The steps to enable Data Security Posture vary between cloud providers:

AWS accounts require deployment of a CloudFormation template in your AWS environment. For more information, see Enable Data Security Posture on AWS accounts.
Azure subscriptions and Google Cloud projects require deployment of a Terraform template, which runs a script in your cloud environment to allow Trend Vision One™ to monitor changes in your storage accounts. For more information, see Enable Data Security Posture on Azure subscriptions and Enable Data Security Posture on Google Cloud projects.

After enabling Data Security Posture, Trend Vision One™ discovers and classifies sensitive data in your cloud accounts, and predicts potential attack paths for data leakage due to misconfigurations or vulnerabilities.

Tip

Data Security Posture monitors cloud assets for sensitive data. To monitor local devices and files you must create a data policy. For more information, see Create a data policy.
