Why AgeTak
Tendency of overreacting to compliance and data security needs
compromises data availability, adversely impacts the agility of the
enterprise, increases the complexity of IT infrastructure and
therefore escalates IT costs. Most of the symptomatic solutions
provided fragmented coarse-grained security at the cost of
availability and merely focus on huge audit reports and fail to serve
the purpose of BI and B2B applications. Enterprise agility depends
upon how smoothly you can have your BI and B2B applications access
your data from diverse and multiple data sources and share with your
employees, customers, vendors and partners. Enforcing the access
control policies and creating the audit logs for each combination of
data stores and end users from independent users stores was now an
additional burden on such applications.
ARC (Access Right Control) technology from AgeTak offer an innovative
solution dramatically simplifying the process of defining and
enforcing enterprise wide data security policies while maintaining
data availability for all applications and providing evidence of
policy enforcement for legal compliance. When used with Virtual
Data Source it provides single point real-time access to Federated
data sources through virtual schema while taking care of enforcing
local and global access control policies as well as fine granularity
audit logs. |
Virtual access to federated
databases
ARC Virtual Data Source (VDS) provides a single point of access to
federation of multiple diverse and geographically dispersed databases.
ARC VDS acts as one big database server to any client application that
sees a virtual schema and can fire SQL query to obtain a combined
result. During federated execution of SQL query ARC VDS ensure
enforcement of local as well as global security policy and produces a
fine grain audit trail.
Hippocratic data securityHippocratic Database (HDB) technology considers privacy as the
central tenet of database and effectively protects the privacy of data
it manages. HDB is application and database agnostic technology that
allows current business operations to proceed with no changes to
existing systems, while ensuring that disclosure concerns (i.e. privacy
policy, security policy, legislation, etc.) are not an issue. The
technology is applicable to any industry that has enhanced security
requirements and specifically significant for industries with
disclosure management concerns (e.g. Healthcare, Finance, Government,
etc.).
This is a sleek mechanism of enforcing policies transparent to both
the data providers and the data consumer applications. Policies can be
easily defined , enforced and managed without any change in your
applications, your databases or your business processes. |
