Integration with Amazon Macie Now Generally Available
Digital Guardian has announced the general availability of their integration with Amazon Macie, a fully managed data security and data privacy service that uses machine learning and pattern matching to discover and provide additional protection for customers’ sensitive data in AWS. As organizations manage growing volumes of data, identifying and protecting their sensitive data at scale can become increasingly complex, expensive, and time-consuming. Amazon Macie is designed to automate the discovery of sensitive data at scale and lowers the cost of protecting data. Digital Guardian now leverages Amazon Macie to build an integration that extends enterprise data loss prevention from traditional endpoints to AWS.

For shared Digital Guardian and Amazon Macie customers, this integration provides unified sensitive data discovery and visibility and other compelling benefits, including:

  • The ability to correlate Amazon Macie findings with Digital Guardian Endpoint events, providing visibility into the file lifecycle.
  • Automated alarming and incident tracking of Amazon Macie incidents in Digital Guardian Analytics & Reporting Cloud (ARC) to support complex compliance mandates such as ITAR.
  • On-demand reporting and remediation actions to add an additional layer of protection for sensitive data stored in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets.

“In 2020, we announced a series of major enhancements to Amazon Macie, including new features, greater availability worldwide, and substantially reduced pricing,” said Dan Plastina, Vice President for External Security Services, Amazon Web Services, Inc. “We are pleased Digital Guardian is now integrated with Amazon Macie, as this allows our shared customers to benefit from unified visibility of sensitive data stored in Amazon S3 buckets, on local network shares, and on endpoint devices. This visibility can then inform policies to protect their data no matter where it resides.”

“Providing a seamless integration with Amazon Macie was a top product priority at Digital Guardian,” said Mordecai Rosen, Chief Executive Officer, Digital Guardian. “We believe federation is critical to enterprise data protection programs providing the ability to see and manage sensitive data no matter where it resides. Amazon Macie is an effective service for identifying and securing sensitive data in Amazon S3, and with Digital Guardian’s integration we can offer our shared customers unified data visibility and protection from a single pane of glass.”
