Sr. Devops Engineer

About us:

Ask any CIO about corporate data and they’ll happily share all the work they’ve done to make their databases secure and compliant. Ask them about other sensitive information, like contracts, financial documents, and source code, and you’ll probably get a much less confident response. Few organizations have any insight into business-critical information stored in unstructured data.

There was a time when that didn’t matter. Those days are gone. Data is now accessible, copious, and dispersed, and it includes an alarming amount of business-critical information. It’s a target for both cybercriminals and regulators but securing it is incredibly difficult. It’s the data challenge of our generation.

Existing approaches aren’t doing the job. Keyword searches produce a bewildering array of possibly relevant documents that may or may not be business critical. Asking users to categorize documents requires extensive training and constant vigilance to make sure users are doing their part. What’s needed is an autonomous solution that can find and assess risk so you can secure your unstructured data wherever it lives.

That’s our mission. Concentric’s semantic intelligence solution reveals the meaning in your structured and unstructured data so you can fight off data loss and meet compliance and privacy mandates.
