Varonis Data Security Platform Demo
Varonis takes a data-centric approach to security, unifying classification, permissions, and activity monitoring into one system instead of forcing teams to piece it together across separate tools. The demo walks through a real investigation: starting from a high-level risk dashboard, drilling into an overexposed S3 bucket, tracing exactly how a user gained access through the platform's access graph, catching a likely compromised identity mid-download, disabling it in one click, and then setting up an automated policy so the same scenario triggers a response instantly next time. It closes with Varonis's managed detection service (MDDR) for teams that want the monitoring handled for them.

Overview
- Data-centric security model — classification, permissions, and activity are unified around the data itself, rather than treated as separate systems (unlike SIEMs or permissions-only tools, which lack this shared context)
- Classification at scale — combines pattern matching (structured data like SSNs, card numbers) with AI (unstructured content like contracts, medical notes) to classify sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, and on-prem
- Exposure & blast radius visibility — dashboards show what's exposed, how it's trending, and which fixes reduce the most risk
- Access graph / identity mapping — visualizes every path to a resource and resolves a single identity across systems (AWS, Okta, Salesforce, Slack, etc.), surfacing risks like redundant permissions or public exposure
- Investigation workflow — ties classification + access + activity together to move from "here's risky data" to "here's who touched it and when" in a few clicks
- Automated response — one-click actions (like disabling a compromised user) plus customizable policies that act automatically, 24/7
- Compliance readiness — maps risks to frameworks (ISO, HIPAA, SOX, FedRAMP) and answers audit questions on demand
- AI readiness — positions clean, classified data as a prerequisite for safely deploying AI tools like Copilot
- MDDR (Managed Data Detection and Response) — a fully managed alternative with a 30-minute SLA on ransomware, for teams that don't want to run monitoring in-house
