Overview
Spirion is a data discovery and classification platform, formerly known as Identity Finder, that finds, classifies and remediates sensitive data such as PII, PHI and payment card data across an organization. Its Sensitive Data Platform (SDP) is delivered as a SaaS hybrid architecture, while a Sensitive Data Manager product offers the same core capability as an on-premises deployment for organizations that cannot run a SaaS scanner.
The platform is built around an AnyFind pattern-matching engine that the vendor states reaches 98.5 percent discovery accuracy, plus differential scanning that rescans only changed data to cut scan time and cost. Discovery covers structured and unstructured data across endpoints, file servers, cloud repositories and email, and is extended to more than 200 additional SaaS, database, NoSQL and collaboration systems through an AnyScan connector framework built with CData.
Spirion reports risk through an SDV3 dashboard for prioritizing risky data assets and an SPIglass executive dashboard that translates data risk into financial terms, and supports subject rights request processing through its Sensitive Data Finder capability. The company is headquartered in St. Petersburg, Florida, and its Sensitive Data Platform runs on Microsoft Azure.
