How DataStax Secures Your Database

What's this blog post about?

Data is crucial for agile organizations, but it can also be devastating when not secured properly. The average cost of a data breach in 2019 was $3.92 million, with the U.S. facing an even higher average cost of $8.19 million. Beyond financial implications, breaches can generate negative PR and damage brand image, leading to customer churn. Data protection and security are essential for mitigating these risks. DataStax Enterprise offers advanced security options that protect distributed data and reduce the risk of a data breach. Its integrated, feature-rich security solution includes authentication and authorization frameworks, SSL to secure communications, transparent data encryption for data in transit and at rest, auditing, and more. DataStax continues to prioritize security by expanding its advanced security features with LDAP authentication, KMIP support for external key management, role-based, and row-level access control. In summary, securing your data is vital for protecting your organization from cyber attacks and their damaging consequences. Building applications on a trusted database like DataStax Enterprise can help ensure the security of one of your most valuable assets: your data.
