In addition to meeting the Varonis team on site, attendees of the Gartner IAM Summit will be able to learn through demonstrations about how Varonis solutions are stopping ransomware and other threats before they create havoc and business damage. Based on its patented Metadata Framework platform, Varonis solutions secure data from the inside out by extracting critical metadata and applying machine learning with user behavior analytics-powered threat models to find patterns and anomalous behavior and stop breaches before they happen. 

David Gibson, VP of Strategy and Market Development at Varonis, said, "The danger from insider threats has never been more severe – or more widely publicized – than it is today. Identity and access management systems typically manage applications and Active Directory groups well, but they don’t natively tie back to the data assets to which those groups grant access. That’s like managing keys on a key ring without knowing which doors those keys will unlock. Varonis maps file and email systems and connects them with identity information, tracks and analyzes how users access the file and email systems that tend to be the target of most attacks, and provides a complete picture of who can access data, who does access data, and potential threats, and even stops active threats in progress.”
