Varonis DatAdvantage Support

NEW YORK -- Varonis Systems Inc. (http://www.varonis.com), the leading innovator and provider of comprehensive data governance software, today announced the availability of DatAdvantage version 3.7, which extends support to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5 and provides the foundation for Varonis to quickly add support for other Linux distributions such as SUSE, Ubuntu, etc.

Varonis DatAdvantage is an award-winning solution that has been tested and proven in over 600 installations worldwide. The addition of Linux support will allow organizations that use Linux to power their file systems to have unprecedented visibility and auditing of who can access their file system data, as well as who is using the data. Varonis DatAdvantage uses a unique mathematical engine to recommend which users should have their access revoked, enabling organizations to efficiently clean up unwarranted access to unstructured data on these file systems.

"As organizations deploy Linux as part of their business infrastructure, they need solutions to ensure Linux file systems can be managed and monitored along with the rest of their data infrastructure," said Sally Hudson, research director, security products and services, IDC. "Using the same security principles applied to Windows and UNIX environments, it is fundamental for organizations with a Linux environment to safeguard, monitor and manage its mission-critical, proprietary data.
