Federal technology leaders operate in a confusing world. On the one hand, they must grant access to data that is needed by users; on the other hand, they must comply with security requirements that severely restrict that access.

Craig Mueller from Varonis offers a solution: efficient data management will ensure that all information will be carefully categorized to allow this razor’s edge of operation. The approach will allow for a concept called “complete coverage.”

“Complete coverage extends to everything in the hybrid cloud as well as legacy systems.

During the interview, Craig Mueller describes a concept called Data Security Posture Management. Essentially, this process allows for complete coverage, governance, and user analytics.

This is a classic example of data that gives the ability to share too easily.

Proper organization of data, both structured and unstructured, will all the balancing game of access and security to be deployed and scaled.
