Today–s dispersed, decentralized and mobile work environment has resulted in data residing on laptops, mobile devices and in the cloud. As organizations– data continues to become more dispersed, the challenges of both data visibility and its security become even more demanding. In particular, data governance becomes a chief concern due to the difficulty of adhering to legal and compliance requirements such as those posed by new data privacy regulations. For instance, both the EU–s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Privacy Shield require visibility beyond what most organizations have in place today. Centralizing visibility of end-user data and its potential risk helps organizations comply.
“A user-centric approach to data protection and governance is key to a company–s managing data throughout its entire lifecycle, and across, among and between various devices, endpoints and the cloud,” said Jaspreet Singh, CEO of Druva. Today–s businesses need a single solution for data availability and corporate governance — eDiscovery, audit, search and compliance management covering data on cloud apps and endpoints — and that–s what Druva is deliveringThis expanded data protection follows the usersomething that is imperative as enterprises make use of new cloud services while working to adhere to data availability and corporate governance policies.”
Druva inSync offers a single access point for viewing, monitoring and managing end-user data without having to manually access separate data sources through disparate solutions. Druva now additionally automates and unifies backup, archival and governance capabilities across multiple cloud applications. inSync–s new Microsoft Exchange Online support helps companies meet their hosted email and message-based governance needs. The new cloud applications support also protects data shared via online file sharing/content management service Box, which Druva has entered into a recent partnership with, and Google Apps, a suite of cloud computing productivity and collaboration software tools that includes Gmail, Google Drive and Google Docs.
“The long-expected surge in adoption of cloud office systems has been underway since mid-2014. Very soon, the question facing enterprise collaboration and communications leaders will not be whether to move these workloads to the cloud, but how painful will it be to remain on-premises?” wrote Jeffrey Mann, Research Vice President of Gartner. “Although penetration is far from universal, enterprise cloud office system adoption is becoming mainstream.”*
