Put the Power of Unstructured Data to Work for Your Business

Unstructured data; everything from documents and PDFs to non-relational data sources represent a vast and growing segment  in today's digital world. Unfortunately, since it's not organized in a predefined way, it's much harder to analyze and secure.

Data security is not complete and not compliant until unstructured data security is addressed

Since a significant portion of unstructured data is considered personal data, it is subject to regulatory compliance by a number of government entities. Failure to meet those requirements could cost you.

Frequently asked Questions

What does “Complete Data Management” mean at ABMartin?

Complete Data Management means being able to manage and protect all of your data across the enterprise: structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data. This also ensures referential integrity is maintained across all data ensuring consistent masking.

How do IBM Data Solutions support this framework?

As an IBM partner, we deploy and customize IBM’s Optim suite of solutions: Optim Test Data Management/Data Privacy, Optim Archive/Decommissioning, Optim Data Privacy for Unstructured Data (DPU) Extended Data Privacy, and Guardium. Our XDP solution also complements Optim by masking semi-structured and unstructured data the same way that Optim masks structured data in databases ensuring consistent masking across all data and referential integrity is maintained.

What role does BigID play in ABMartin’s solutions?

BigID provides advanced data discovery and privacy automation. Its AI-driven platform helps identify sensitive data across cloud and on-prem systems, giving organizations the insight needed to protect data intelligently. Our XDP solution ingests the discovered sensitive data from BigID, intelligently masks or obfuscates it providing remediation of the discovered sensitive data.

What is “Unstructured Data Privacy” and why is it important?

Unstructured data such as flat files, XML, noSQL databases (MongoDB, Cassandra, etc) shared drives, PDFs, and images often contains sensitive information that traditional database privacy solutions overlook. Currently 90% of data generated by organizations is considered semi or unstructured and growing exponentially. This data cannot be ignored and needs to be considered as part of your overall data privacy strategy.  ABMartin helps customers protect this sensitive data using intelligent contextual masking, preserving both data integrity and usefulness.

How do your solutions integrate with existing infrastructure?

Our XDP solution has exposed masking APIs and connection modules to allow integrations with existing tools and solutions. We want customers to be able to leverage and extend their current investments and work with them, not against them.

Which data types are supported?

XDP supports: structured (traditional RDBMS), semi-structured (Cassandra, Mongo, Postgres, Dynamo, Cosmos, etc.), and unstructured (documents, images, XML, PDF, and many more).
