Master Databricks access governance and data security

 Databricks' dual permission system of Unity Catalog and workspace ACLs makes it nearly impossible to right-size permissions, causing overexposure of sensitive data and higher risk of a data breach. Varonis provides complete visibility and control of your Databricks environment.

Gain complete visibility into complex access hierarchies

Varonis delivers comprehensive visualization of Databricks' intricate role hierarchies and inheritance chains. Our bi-directional mapping shows the complete path across users, roles, and data access, making it easy to understand who has access to what and how they got it.

Discover and classify sensitive data

Varonis combines AI-powered and rule-based classification to accurately identify sensitive data across your Databricks environment at scale. Varonis pinpoints sensitive data down to specific tables and columns, highlighting exposure risks and automatically applying dynamic data masks to protect critical information.

Detect threats with behavior-based analytics

Varonis creates a unified audit trail with logs and advanced behavioral analytics. The Platform learns normal usage patterns and identifies anomalies that could indicate threats—from users dropping tables and exfiltrating data to granting privileged permissions to public roles – and even unusual AI access patterns.
