Organizations face challenges in securing their data fabric architecture in hybrid or multi-cloud setups, leading to inconsistencies in security measures, according to Inamdar.
Enhancing Security with Data Fabric
Despite challenges, data fabric significantly boosts data security and governance, making it a popular choice for many organizations.
Data fabric architectures provide substantial benefits for improving security when implemented effectively across various domains.
Centralized Security Policies
Data fabric enables organizations to address fragmentation issues by establishing centralized policies and rules that apply to all data assets through metadata, ensuring automatic enforcement during data access and movement.
Regulatory Compliance
A data fabric enhances organizations’ compliance efforts by enabling them to easily identify sensitive data and potential violations of regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA, allowing for real-time governance and security measures implementation.
Metadata Management
Automated metadata management and data cataloging are key components of data fabric, offering significant benefits for organizations.
