Lightbeam.ai announced that it has been named a Major Player in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Data Privacy Compliance Software 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc # US53068725, November 2025). The report evaluates providers that help organizations meet growing global privacy obligations through automated governance, data discovery, and compliance workflows.
As enterprises expand their use of cloud applications, AI tools, and cross-functional data sharing, privacy leaders face increasing pressure to maintain compliance with regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, GLBA, and emerging AI-specific laws. Organizations need modern solutions that bring accuracy, automation, and identity-aware context to privacy operations at scale.
“Organizations continue to struggle with fragmented privacy workflows, incomplete data inventories, and a lack of visibility into how sensitive information moves across SaaS, cloud, and collaboration platforms,” said Himanshu Shukla, CEO and Co-Founder of Lightbeam. “We believe being recognized in the IDC MarketScape reinforces the work we’re doing to simplify privacy compliance with identity-aware intelligence, contextual data classification, and automation that reduces operational burden for privacy, security, and compliance teams.”
Lightbeam’s identity-centric platform converges Data Security, Privacy, and Governance, helping organizations maintain continuous compliance across both structured and unstructured data environments. With Lightbeam, enterprises can automate core privacy tasks, including Data Subject Requests (DSR), Record of Processing Activities (RoPA), Consent Management, and Privacy Impact Assessments (PIAs), while ensuring sensitive data is properly identified, classified, protected, and governed.
Lightbeam’s patented Data Identity Graph gives enterprises a unified view of sensitive data, linking each data attribute to the real human identity it represents. This unique capability enables organizations to satisfy regulatory requirements more accurately and at lower cost by correlating whose data they hold, where it resides, who can access it, and how it is being processed.
