SecuPi

SecuPi Data Security Platform (DSP) provides enhanced interoperability and flexibility with seamless enforcement of data access policies, real-time visibility, security, privacy & sovereignty use cases across data platforms.

Snowflake customers can use the SecuPi's central Policy Management Server and policy administration GUI with the additional choice of having the SecuPi enforcer essentially embedded within Snowflake.

SecuPi supports three major advancements providing data security in Snowflake:

1. Expansion of Snowflake to become the enterprise data security event hub of all Cloud workloads with its expansion of sensitive data discovery and classification is now coupled with SecuPi Data Security platform to apply remediation back at the source Cloud data platforms using its 5(!) overarching access control and de-identification Enforcer techniques

2. Snowflake new sensitive data lineage from operational data sources to destination imposes the fiduciary requirement to apply de-identification, encryption and tokenization to address data sovereignty and privacy requirements. The SecuPi ETL Enforcers, deployed on Kafka, Glue, Azure Data Factory, Talend to name a few, applies masking, hashing, encryption and tokenization on critical data on-premises and in-country.

3. The SecuPi client-side encryption Enforcer for Snowflake ensures that the data is always encrypted, with full Segregation of Duties (SoD), only to be decrypted at the authorized client application

With SecuPi, the central Policy Management Server administers policy (rules) governing Attribute or Purpose Based Access Control (ABAC/PBAC), Data Protection (dynamic masking, encryption, tokenization, anonymization) directly within Snowflake and other data platforms in use. These centrally managed policies are then consistently applied and enforced by distributed Enforcers. The SecuPi Management Server also provides end-user accountability, reporting, threshold monitoring, alerting, user behavior analytics (UBA), and privacy compliance (RTBF, restriction of use, records of processing, etc.) by consolidating all data access logs from the various distributed Enforcers.

SecuPi has already been providing four (4) different methods for implementing data access control and security enforcement and is now offering a 5th method for Snowflake environments. All five methods are now available for use by Snowflake customers, addressing the various Snowflake deployment options and purposes.

The five methods include:

● Application Overlays – instrumenting Java, Python, Node.JS & .NET Applications for maximum End-User visibility.

● Smart Driver Wrappers – Transparently intercepting ODBC/JDBC/ADO.NET connections to Databases.

● In-Line Network Gateways – Network proxy for Postgres, MySQL, Snowflake Web Clients, JDBC, ODBC, ADO.NET, and Python with direct connections.

● SDK – Enabling customers to build their own custom Enforcers, API calls, etc.

● Snowflake Native – Leverage Snowflake native security features to enforce data protection policies.
