Description

The Data Security Posture Agent is designed to expand the capacity of data security admins as they proactively work to stay on top of a dynamic data and risk landscape within their organization. Its primary job is to help discover sensitive data across your data estate. This agent is designed to analyze and search documents, emails, and messages that match the natural-language discovery intent requested by the user and assess associated risks. By moving beyond traditional keyword and information-type analysis and harnessing the power of LLMs, this agent enables organizations to identify risks based on the actual purpose and context of the content and take appropriate action.
