Satori announced the general availability of its Universal Data Access Service to AWS Data Lake Infrastructure customers. Available via the AWS Marketplace, organizations
using AWS Athena, the most common implementation of the data lake architecture
on AWS, can now leverage Satori's solution to deliver secure access to
sensitive personal and financial information with an improved security model
and user experience. By using Satori, AWS Lake House customers can
significantly lower the complexity traditionally involved with implementing
access controls for data across AWS Athena, Redshift and RDS.
"Currently,
AWS customers need to leverage different services and security models for access
controls across their data warehouse, data lake and database environments,"
said Eldad Chai, CEO of Satori. "With the general availability of
Satori for AWS Athena, AWS customers can work with one, comprehensive platform,
leveraging a unified security model across their RedShift, RDS and Athena
environments. By doing so, Satori is accelerating seamless access to data to
analysts, developers and business users across departments and organizational
units."
The
only universal data access solution on the market that does not require any
changes to the customers' existing data infrastructure, the Satori Universal
Data Access Service for AWS Data Lake customers features the following key
capabilities:
- Automated discovery and classification of
sensitive data stored across
data lakes - including PII, PHI, PCI and financial data on AWS Athena
datasets, eliminating the need for scanning the underlying storage layer.
As organizations adopt a data lake architecture and create peta-byte scale
data lakes, understanding the types of users moving data and the data
being moved is challenging to address using the conventional method of
scanning all of their data.
- Unified security model for AWS Lake House
Architectures - AWS customers
can now enforce a single security policy across their entire Lake House
data, regardless of where the data is stored. Policies are enforced at
query runtime, without duplicating datasets or creating views on top of
existing datasets. The new AWS solution from Satori supports data on AWS
Athena, AWS Redshift, AWS Redshift Spectrum, and AWS RDS, with support for
more AWS data services, including Opensearch and DocumentDB, coming soon.
- Seamless Support via Satori's Data Portal - AWS Athena customers can now leverage the
Satori data portal to let data consumers discover and request access to
data sets without relying on long email threads or tickets.
- Simplified permissions and temporary access
credentials management for AWS Athena - Athena customers now benefit from reduced risk of
over-privileged access due to misconfigured IAM policies, while
eliminating the need for access management across multiple AWS services;
Customers can also use Satori's authentication engine to replace static
shared AWS access keys with auto-generated temporary personal credentials.
