We’re delighted to announce the general public preview of SQL Info Safety (Information Discovery & Classification), introducing superior capabilities constructed into Azure SQL Database for discovering, classifying, labeling & defending the delicate knowledge in your databases. Related capabilities are additionally being launched for on-premises SQL Server by way of SQL Server Administration Studio.
Discovering and classifying your most delicate knowledge (enterprise, monetary, healthcare, PII, and so forth.) can play a pivotal function in your organizational info safety stature. It will possibly function an infrastructure for:
- Serving to meet knowledge privateness requirements and regulatory compliance necessities, akin to GDPR.
- Information-centric safety situations, akin to monitoring (auditing) and alerting on anomalous entry to delicate knowledge.
- Controlling entry to and hardening the safety of databases containing extremely delicate knowledge.
What’s SQL Info Safety?
SQL Info Safety (SQL IP) introduces a set of superior providers and new SQL capabilities, forming a brand new info safety paradigm in SQL geared toward defending the info, not simply the database:
- Discovery & suggestions – The classification engine scans your database and identifies columns containing probably delicate knowledge. It then offers you a simple strategy to evaluate and apply the suitable classification suggestions by way of the Azure portal.
- Labeling – Sensitivity classification labels may be persistently tagged on columns utilizing new classification metadata attributes launched into the SQL Engine. This metadata can then be utilized for superior sensitivity-based auditing and safety situations.
- Monitoring/Auditing – Sensitivity of the question end result set is calculated in actual time and used for auditing entry to delicate knowledge (at the moment in Azure SQL DB solely).
- Visibility – The database classification state may be considered in an in depth dashboard within the portal. Moreover, you possibly can obtain a report (in Excel format) for use for compliance & auditing functions, in addition to different wants.
Further SQL IP capabilities will proceed rolling out all through 2018 – Keep tuned!
How does SQL IP work?
We designed SQL IP with the purpose of streamlining the method of discovering -> classifying -> labeling delicate knowledge in your database atmosphere.
Our built-in automated classification engine identifies columns containing probably delicate knowledge, and offers an inventory of classification suggestions, which may be simply utilized as sensitivity metadata on high of columns, utilizing new column sensitivity attributes which have been added to the SQL engine. You can even manually classify & label your columns.
When you classify & label your knowledge, our detailed overview dashboard offers you visibility into the classification state of your database, in addition to the flexibility to export and obtain a classification report in Excel format:~
Lastly, the SQL engine makes use of the column classifications to find out the sensitivity of question end result units. Mixed with Azure SQL Database Auditing, this lets you audit the sensitivity of the particular knowledge being returned by queries:
Get began at this time!
We encourage you to check out SQL Info Safety at this time for improved visibility into your database atmosphere, in addition to for monitoring entry to your delicate knowledge.
