Why Contextual Data Intelligence Is Better Together: DSPM and Security Data Lakes

 Data discovery is no longer a standalone function. It’s the fuel powering a smarter, more integrated approach to enterprise security—and it’s redefining what modern DSPM looks like at scale.

Modern DSPM Demands More Than Discovery

Today’s enterprise security teams don’t just want to find sensitive data—they want to act on it in context. That means correlating discovery and classification results with other signals across their security stack to drive smarter, faster decisions.

At 1touch.io, we’re seeing this shift firsthand. One Fortune 50 enterprise is integrating our sensitive data intelligence directly into their on-prem data warehouse—enriching their broader security event data with context like data classification, location, sensitivity, age, access entitlements, and more.

This allows them to:

• Prioritize patching based on exposure of sensitive data
  
• Tailor IAM and adaptive access policies to real-time data risk
  
• Orchestrate monitoring policies based on data value
  
• Support DSARs and regulatory audits with enriched insights
  

The result? Faster time-to-decision, improved audit readiness, and stronger alignment with Zero Trust principles.

Security Data Lakes: The New Integration Frontier

Security data lakes, decentralized SIEMs, and enterprise data warehouses are becoming the default architecture for teams seeking customized, business-specific visibility. These platforms thrive when fed with granular, contextual data—and that’s where DSPM delivers.

For one government agency, integrating 1touch.io with their Hive-based big data store and PowerBI allowed them to automate compliance reporting—cutting weeks of manual effort and achieving over 99% accuracy in tracking sensitive data like Tax IDs.

With robust APIs and flexible architecture, 1touch.io plays well with existing BI tools, orchestration layers, and security platforms—whether you’re building custom reports, powering real-time dashboards, or correlating data risk signals across domains.

Beyond Discovery: Making DSPM Actionable

As the DSPM market matures, expectations are rising. Discovery and classification are table stakes—but the ability to plug into the broader security fabric and drive action is what sets true enterprise solutions apart.

We’re helping organizations shift from reactive to proactive by:

• Enabling integrations with encryption and monitoring tools
  
• Powering adaptive policy engines with real-time sensitivity insights
  
• Delivering accurate context to IRM, governance, and compliance teams
  

This “better together” story is playing out across our ecosystem—with integrations into platforms like Microsoft Purview, OneTrust, Alation, Collibra, and GDP enabling faster, richer decisions for our customers.

Context is the Catalyst

Sensitive data is only as secure as the ecosystem around it. By making our intelligence available to the tools that matter—from security data lakes to IAM engines—1touch.io turns raw discovery into real action. Because DSPM isn’t just about knowing where the data is—it’s about knowing what to do next.
