NEW YORK, Jan. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Varonis Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRNS), a pioneer in data security and analytics, announces Version 8.6 of the Varonis Data Security Platform. The enhancements include expanded data security for Microsoft 365 with at-a-glance tools to uncover exposed files and folders, new threat models to defend against ransomware, and automated labeling for sensitive files.
The Varonis Data Security Platform helps organizations secure their critical information using automation to enforce Zero Trust, tackle privacy and compliance tasks, and detect modern attacks by putting data first. New capabilities in Version 8.6 help organizations protect sensitive data within Microsoft 365 by defending against external attacks and making it easy to discover and remediate overexposed information as companies collaborate in the cloud.
Version 8.6 of the Varonis Data Security Platform delivers:
"Organizations of all sizes are embracing Microsoft 365 to boost teamwork and communication-but all too often, data protection takes a backseat to collaboration, leaving data unsecured and at risk," said Brian Vecci, Field CTO, Varonis. "Microsoft 365 allows users to collaborate directly without the need for IT-and this makes permissions visibility and management immensely complex compared to on-premises environments. These challenges require a data-first approach to prevent data breaches. With Varonis, organizations can better protect their data not only in Microsoft 365, but across their hybrid-cloud IT environments-all with one powerful, proven platform."
Version 8.6 of the Varonis Data Security Platform is available now.
