“Concentric named as Cool Vendor in 2021 Gartner “Cool Vendors in Privacy” report.”

Concentric’s Semantic Intelligence™ automates data discovery and governance using deep learning to categorize data, uncover business criticality and reduce risk. Its Risk Distance™ analysis technology uses the baseline security practices observed for each data category to spot security anomalies in individual files. It compares documents with peers in the same category to identify risk from oversharing, third-party access, and wrong location or misclassification. Organizations benefit from the expertise of content owners without intrusive classification mandates, with no rules, regex or policy maintenance needed.

“We consider our inclusion in the Gartner ‘Cool Vendors in Privacy’ report a confirmation of our mission to enable customers to automate the discovery and governance of private data – both in the cloud and on-premises – with our advanced deep-learning technology,” said Karthik Krishnan, Concentric CEO. “Organizations across the globe face stricter privacy regulations, exploding volumes of data, and staffing shortages – and that has created a tremendous need for innovative data governance and security solutions. We’re dedicated to helping our customers meet these challenges.”
