Dataguise, a technology leader in secure business execution, announced that it will showcase its premier data security and compliance platform at the ATARC Federal Big Data Summit. Dataguise will showcase DgSecure as a countermeasure to cyber-attacks and internal risks which may expose organizational big data to potential threats, according to a press release on the company’s website.
Dataguise delivers a fully automated, 100% programmer-free way to lock and encrypt information across all data repositories.
Advanced Technology Academic Research Center Federal Big Data Summit, ATARC, includes the latest skills, techniques, and technologies from leading government experts and industry innovators. Attendees at the event include U.S. Federal Government practitioners across a wide range of fields.
As federal agencies optimize operations with data-driven IT infrastructures, there will be significant changes in the volume of data being collected, moved, stored, and accessed. While data is becoming a larger asset, it is also becoming a potential liability and causing concern for these operations. The primary challenge during the evolution to this infrastructure will be to ensure data security and compliance throughout operations. As a result, organizations must take great effort to understand the concerns confronting administrators.
Several technology partners will join Dataguise at ATARC this year, including MapR, a provider of the industry’s only converged data platform, allowing the application of analytical insights to operational processes in real-time for competitive customer advantage.
Together, the companies will reveal best-practices for creating a safe multi-tenant cloud or on-premise environment for big data analytics or reporting.
“This is a how-to event where the stewards of the Government’s sensitive data will have an opportunity to brainstorm with big-data practitioners to gain a better understanding of the elements needed to modernize legacy IT infrastructures with proven next-generation technology. These insights will enable decisive advantages, increased efficiencies and better decision-making by converging live-streaming data with the valuable archived data that the Government has been protecting for years,” said Doug Natal, VP and General Manager Federal, MapR. “Along with the resources at Dataguise our collaborative teams have the experience to help bring the data to life through analytics that support important civilian, defense and intelligence missions.”
“When it comes to the Federal Government, there is an endless amount of data throughout agency computer systems. This is where the opportunities and challenges lie and where our technology does its best work,” said JT Sison, Vice President, Marketing and Business Development for Dataguise.
