BigID

BigID is a data security, privacy and governance company founded in 2016 and headquartered in New York City. The company develops technology that helps organizations discover, classify, protect and govern sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, database and enterprise environments. BigID's platform provides data discovery and classification, data security posture management, privacy management, data governance and compliance capabilities. It can identify sensitive information and connect it with users, applications, infrastructure and business context so security teams can understand where important data resides and how it is exposed. The company has also expanded its platform to address AI security and governance, including discovery of AI data, AI applications and associated risk. BigID supports organizations that need to meet privacy regulations while also reducing security exposure from over-permissioned or poorly governed data. Its technology can integrate with existing security and data platforms and automate workflows for remediation, access reviews and policy enforcement. BigID serves enterprises across highly regulated industries such as financial services, healthcare and government. The company maintains a formal trust program with security controls and independent certifications including SOC 2 and ISO 27001. Its focus on combining data intelligence with security and privacy makes BigID relevant to modern data security programs and AI governance initiatives. Organizations use the platform to improve visibility, reduce sensitive-data exposure and establish more consistent control over enterprise information.
