Veritas Technologies Unveils Enhanced Data Insight as SaaS for Improved Data Compliance and Management

Veritas Technologies, a leader in secure multi-cloud data management, has announced significant enhancements to its Veritas Data Insight platform, which is now available as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution. This new model promises organizations a more efficient, scalable, and user-friendly approach to data compliance, addressing the growing need for robust data governance across diverse IT environments.

Key Features of Veritas Data Insight SaaS

1. SaaS Consumption Model:
   The new SaaS-based delivery model simplifies onboarding, automatically updates the platform, and offers increased scalability and ease of use. As a multi-tenant, Veritas-managed application, the SaaS model provides flexible data management options, offering clients a seamless experience without the hassle of managing infrastructure.
2. Enhanced Performance:
   Veritas Data Insight’s latest release brings significant performance improvements, including data indexing that requires up to 50% less disk space, faster data classification, and enhanced indexing capabilities. These updates enable faster and more accurate compliance monitoring across large-scale multi-cloud environments, making it easier to navigate complex regulatory requirements.

Solving the Challenge of Managing Dark Data

A growing issue in today’s data-driven enterprises is the prevalence of unstructured or dark data. This type of data, which includes redundant, obsolete, and trivial (ROT) data, constitutes about 52% of an average organization’s data estate. It is not only a significant source of storage costs but also a compliance risk, especially as organizations face growing regulatory pressure.

Veritas Data Insight offers deep visibility and analytics across multiple cloud infrastructures, allowing organizations to efficiently manage unstructured, dark, and sensitive data. The platform plays a crucial role in mitigating cyberthreats, such as ransomware, by identifying data vulnerabilities, offering early alerts, and enabling organizations to track compromised data more effectively.

Thought Leadership on Emerging Data Challenges

Johnny Karam, Managing Director and Vice President of the International Emerging Region at Veritas Technologies, addressed the growing challenges faced by organizations in the UAE as they integrate large language models (LLMs) and other AI-enhanced business capabilities. He said,
“The latest Veritas Data Insight capabilities in the cloud help our customers effectively navigate complex data environments, including unstructured and sensitive data. By reducing risk and adding value, we simplify compliance without increasing IT infrastructure complexity.”

This perspective highlights the increasing importance of managing vast data estates as AI and machine learning technologies become more pervasive in the business world.

Integrated Data Solutions for Comprehensive Governance

Veritas Data Insight is not just a standalone tool but is integrated into Veritas’ larger portfolio of data compliance and governance services, including Information Governance, eDiscovery, and Surveillance. It is also designed to work seamlessly with Veritas NetBackup Flex Scale and Veritas Alta Recovery Vault, providing organizations with robust cyber resilience solutions. The combination of scale-out data protection and SaaS-based data isolation allows businesses to confidently meet the challenges of modern data management in an increasingly complex and regulated landscape.

Availability and Future Outlook

Veritas Data Insight is now available through Veritas’ cloud services, offering a modern approach to addressing complex data challenges. As data continues to grow exponentially, Veritas’ innovations empower businesses to maintain control over their data, ensuring security, compliance, and efficiency without adding unnecessary complexity.
