How does BigID handle remediation when security teams don't have direct access to data stores?

BigID offers two approaches: security analysts can use native remediation capabilities like access revocation and SOAR playbook triggers directly from the security posture interface, or they can delegate remediation to data owners who have the knowledge and authority to take action through a dedicated workflow-based application.

What remediation actions can data owners take through BigID's delegated remediation application?

Data owners can revoke access, delete or archive objects, add annotations for external remediation outside BigID, create JIRA or ServiceNow tickets, or mark findings as false positives. They can also review and certify data to meet regulatory requirements.

but that's just the first step. The real value comes from taking action and remediating those risks. So what is the challenge? Security analysts often face tens of thousands of findings, making it overwhelming to determine where to start. On top of that, security analysts typically don't have deep knowledge of the data itself, nor do they have direct access to the data stores where it's kept. Another key challenge is context. Knowing that the risk exists, or even how many risks have been identified, isn't enough. To properly remediate, you need to understand the exact nature of the risk. So for example, is it a PII? And if so, what specific type? And where exactly is it located within the document or a table? So how does Big AD help solve these challenges? Big AD offers two approaches to risk remediation. The security posture is the first one, and it's tailored for security analysts and technical teams. After gaining rich context on objects that violate Big AD's automated policies, security personnel can take direct action using native remediation capabilities, such as revoking access or triggering a SOA playbook, beyond the basic ticketing actions offered by other DSPM vendors. The second option is delegating risk remediation to data owners. And this is where the delegated remediation application comes into play. Data owners are responsible for their data, and they have knowledge and authority to make the right decision. Unlike other DSPM vendors, Big AD enables data owners to remediate risk by revoking access, deleting or archiving objects, or adding annotations for external remediation outside Big AD. They can also create a JIRA or ServiceNow ticket or mark findings as false positives. With the delegated remediation application, owners and data stewards can review and certify data, a requirement in multiple regulations. Big AD's delegated remediation applications provide a workflow-based, role-based remediation process that is fully audited and orchestrated, and also AI-driven guidance to help the data stewards to make the right decision. Once risks are remediated, the risk level is reduced, and you can track your compliance posture with the Compliance Dashboard. This dashboard helps you monitor risk level over time and also see alignment with security standards like NIST, ISO, and other security standards. The compliance dashboard is a great way to monitor risk levels over time and also like NIST, ISO, PCI, OWASP, and others. With Big AD, remediation is actionable, streamlined, and accountable. So you can move from identifying risks to resolving them effectively.

TL;DR

BigID positions its DSPM solution as going beyond detection to deliver actionable remediation, differentiating from competitors who stop at risk identification.
Security analysts can take direct action through native remediation capabilities including access revocation and SOAR playbook triggers, not just ticketing.
Data owners receive delegated remediation workflows with AI-driven guidance, enabling those with data knowledge to make and execute remediation decisions.

Summary

This demonstration addresses a critical gap in data security posture management: the challenge of moving from risk detection to actual remediation. BigID presents two distinct approaches for operationalizing DSPM findings. The first targets security analysts through a security posture interface that provides rich context on policy violations and enables direct remediation actions including access revocation and SOAR playbook integration. The second approach delegates remediation to data owners through a dedicated application, recognizing that those closest to the data have the knowledge and authority to make appropriate decisions. Data owners can revoke access, delete or archive objects, add annotations for external remediation, create tickets in JIRA or ServiceNow, or mark false positives. The platform emphasizes workflow-based, role-based processes with full audit trails and AI-driven guidance to support decision-making. A compliance dashboard enables ongoing monitoring of risk levels and alignment with security frameworks including NIST, ISO, PCI, and OWASP, providing visibility into remediation progress over time.
