Immuta Announces Support for AWS Lake Formation December 4, 2024 New support extends cross-platform data discovery, access control, data provisioning and visibility to Amazon Athena, Apache Spark on Amazon EMR, and Amazon Redshift Spectrum to ensure secure, compliant, and accelerated data insights Immuta, a data security company, announced today its support for Amazon Web Services (AWS) Lake Formation, a managed service that makes it easier to centrally govern, secure, and globally share data for analytics and machine learning. By supporting AWS Lake Formation, joint customers can seamlessly manage and enforce complex data access policies at scale across various AWS services, ensuring consistent governance, enhanced security, and compliance while reducing administrative overhead and accelerating time-to-insights. Organizations face significant challenges in putting their data to work for the business, as they must navigate complex environments where data is often siloed, dispersed across various platforms, and subject to diverse compliance requirements. Balancing the need for fast data access with stringent security and governance standards adds further complexity, as companies must protect sensitive information while ensuring that data can be effectively leveraged and accessed for insights. This support offers a comprehensive solution for data access and provisioning that complements the capabilities of AWS Lake Formation, extending consistent policies to Amazon Athena, Apache Spark on Amazon EMR, and Amazon Redshift Spectrum. Customers can now provision access to data with a single security model that spans AWS data services and other data platforms, such asSnowflake, Databricks, Starburst, and more. “Support for AWS Lake Formation underscores our commitment to driving innovation through collaboration,” said Matthew Carroll, Co-founder & CEO, Immuta. “With support for AWS Lake Formation, we are enhancing security, governance, and efficiency for our customers, empowering them to extract maximum value from their data while maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance.
