Diversus has partnered with Varonis to help organisations better understand, govern and protect their sensitive data across increasingly complex technology environments.
As organisations adopt more cloud platforms, SaaS applications and AI tools, managing sensitive information is becoming more challenging. Data can be spread across Microsoft 365, file systems, cloud environments and business applications, making it difficult to understand what information is held, where it is stored and who can access it.
This becomes particularly important when introducing technologies such as Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT and Claude. AI tools can make information easier to find and use, but they can also increase the risk of sensitive or overexposed data being accessed by the wrong people.
Before adopting AI at scale, organisations need a clear view of their data and the controls surrounding it.
A practical approach to data security
Varonis provides a data security platform that helps organisations discover sensitive data, understand how it is being accessed and identify areas of unnecessary exposure.
By combining this technology with Diversus’ experience across Microsoft, cloud, cybersecurity and AI governance, the partnership will help clients:
- Find and classify sensitive data across their technology environment
- Identify excessive permissions, unnecessary access and exposed information
- Strengthen data security across Microsoft 365, file systems, Azure, AWS and other SaaS platforms
- Improve privacy, compliance and information governance
- Reduce the risk of sensitive information being exposed through AI tools
- Establish a safer foundation for adopting Microsoft Copilot and other generative AI technologies
Support from assessment through to optimisation
Diversus will support clients throughout the data security lifecycle, from understanding their current environment to implementing and improving the right controls.
This may include:
- Assessing existing data exposure and security risks
- Identifying sensitive, confidential or regulated information
- Reviewing permissions and access controls
- Implementing and configuring the Varonis platform
- Supporting remediation and governance activities
- Establishing ongoing monitoring and reporting
- Optimising controls as the organisation’s technology environment evolves
The focus is on helping organisations take practical steps based on their priorities, risk profile and existing technology environment.
Creating a safer foundation for AI
AI adoption is not only a technology decision. It also requires strong data governance, clear access controls and confidence that sensitive information is appropriately protected.
The Diversus and Varonis partnership gives organisations a practical way to address these foundations before introducing AI more widely. It also supports organisations already using AI tools that want greater visibility and control over the information those tools may be able to access.
This partnership is a natural addition to the way Diversus helps organisations modernise their technology while managing security, governance and risk.
