Smart Data Confidence
Visibility and control over sensitive data, wherever it resides
Smart Data Confidence: Understand Your Data, Reduce Exposure
Smart Data Confidence is Yarix's Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) service, helping organizations understand what sensitive data they hold, where it resides and who can access it. Through data discovery, automated classification and access analysis, it brings greater control over information distributed across cloud environments, SaaS applications and on-premises systems, with a streamlined deployment process
What Is DSPM and How Does Smart Data Confidence Work?
Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) combines technologies and processes to discover and classify an organization's sensitive data, while analyzing access permissions, configurations and exposure levels. It addresses a fundamental question: Where is your most sensitive information stored, and who can access it today?
Smart Data Confidence is Yarix's approach to implementing Data Security Posture Management, starting with a preconfigured tenant and a clearly defined initial scope. The SAFE (Security Access & Framework Engineers) team deploys an enterprise-grade SaaS platform, selected from leading market solutions based on your technology environment, and expands its capabilities as your requirements evolve.
Smart Data Confidence combines:
- Data discovery and classification. Automated identification of personal data, confidential information and intellectual property using AI-powered engines and customizable classifiers.
- Access and permissions analysis. Visibility into users, groups and service accounts interacting with sensitive data, supported by remediation workflows to address excessive access permissions.
- Risk-prioritized data exposures. Overly permissive sharing settings and misconfigurations are analyzed and prioritized according to risk.
- Reporting and SIEM integration. Dashboards and evidence to support governance and audits, integrated into existing security monitoring operations.
The Benefits of DSPM for Enterprise Data Security
With Data Security Posture Management, data protection moves beyond assumptions. Understanding what data your organization holds and how exposed it is enables you to take action before overlooked permissions or undiscovered data repositories become security or compliance risks.
Key Benefits
- Centralized visibility into sensitive data that may currently be undiscovered or untracked.
- Reduced accidental data exposure and excessive access permissions through risk-prioritized remediation.
- Audit-ready evidence to support NIS2, DORA, GDPR and ISO/IEC 27001 compliance assessments.
- Greater control over data as your organization adopts new cloud and SaaS services.
- A measurable data security posture that management can track over time.
Smart Data Confidence: A Standardized Approach to DSPM
Smart Data Confidence: A Standardized Approach to DSPM
A fully customized Data Security Posture Management project typically begins with an extensive assessment and design phase. Smart Data Confidence reduces this initial complexity through standardized configurations designed to cover the main use cases for data discovery, classification and risk analysis.
This approach does not limit the platform's capabilities, which can be extended with additional data sources and modules as requirements evolve.
What's Included in Smart Data Confidence:
- Deployment of a dedicated tenant on a SaaS-based Data Security platform.
- Configuration of data discovery and classification, access and permissions analysis, and data exposure assessment.
- Integration with major data sources, including on-premises file servers and databases, SharePoint Online, OneDrive, Google Drive, Azure Storage, AWS S3, Snowflake and Databricks.
- Integrations can be configured according to specific requirements and project scope.
- Configuration of dashboards and reporting, together with integration into the organization's existing SIEM.
- Hands-on training for your team to transfer operational knowledge, along with an annual package of post-deployment services delivered by the SAFE team.

FAQ
Smart Data Confidence and Data Security Posture Management
DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) discovers and classifies sensitive data across cloud environments, SaaS applications, and on-premises systems, while analyzing access rights, permissions, and configurations. It helps organizations understand where their most sensitive information is stored, who can access it, and which exposures should be addressed first.
Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) provides visibility into an organization's data security posture, including where data is stored, how sensitive it is, and who has access to it. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) monitors data flows to prevent unauthorized data transfers or disclosures. Smart Data Confidence starts with DSPM capabilities and can be extended to include DLP at a later stage.
Smart Data Confidence is designed for organizations managing data across cloud environments, SaaS applications, and on-premises infrastructure, as well as those operating in regulated industries. It is particularly relevant for CIOs, CISOs, Data Protection Officers, and professionals responsible for compliance and data governance.
Yes. Smart Data Confidence supports compliance efforts by mapping an organization's data security posture against NIS2, DORA, GDPR, and ISO/IEC 27001 requirements, while providing evidence for audits and assessments. Policies, roles, and processes still need to be defined, and Yarix can provide guidance and support throughout this process.
Yarix is Var Group's cybersecurity competence center and has been protecting public and private organizations since 2001. It combines the expertise of its SAFE team, specialized in Identity & Data Security, with Security Operations Center (SOC), Incident Response, and security governance consulting capabilities to deliver data protection integrated into an organization's broader security strategy.
