Data democratization is the best way to get value from data. Organizations are democratizing access to data in various ways including Self Service Analytics, Self Service AI/ML, and Data Mesh. However, the increased adoption of cloud data platforms, the complex tool landscape, and the agility and speed of data teams has resulted in an increased risk of data breaches. Every day, there is a cloud data breach. Combined with stricter privacy & security regulations, organizations that democratize access to data, also have to improve their data security. Unfortunately, with today’s Identity & Access Management (IAM) technology & workflows, it is an enormous challenge to improve data security without disrupting data operations, and affecting the success of the data democratization programme.

In this session, Bart will discuss the best ways to balance data security with data democratization, and how our customers use Raito to achieve this. Bart will delve into the importance of data access & usage monitoring, management, and automation to achieve the scale needed to secure data innovation.
