Skillz Middle East and Data Security
Data security is a critical area for every organization. Skillz ME secures 90 %+ of enterprise structured databases with a robust database scanning to catalogue the environment and identify weaknesses.
Several key drivers are fueling this solution area:
- Increasing digitization and data generation across industries, leading to a heightened need for robust database protection.
- Stricter regulations like AAA rating and GDPR Standards, and PCI DSS, which require businesses to implement comprehensive data security measures.
- The adoption of cloud and hybrid environments necessitates more sophisticated security solutions that can handle diverse infrastructures.
- Skillz Middle East performs deep analysis to assess and control user privileges, roles, and objects needed to enforce Zero Trust practices and monitor and respond to database activity with a comprehensive solution to identify suspicious activity.
