Big Data Protector for Hortonworks Optimized, seamlessly integrated data-centric security for HDP Hortonworks is empowering organizations to analyze large quantities of data from a variety of streams for insight with the Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP). However, as more data is collected, it is increasingly imperative to protect sensitive data from inside and outside threats and comply with privacy laws, internal governance, and other regulations. Protegrity Big Data Protector for Hortonworks helps resolve these challenges by transparently protecting data within HDP with coarse- and fine-grained enterprise-grade protection, utilizing encryption and Protegrity Vaultless Tokenization (PVT). As part of the Protegrity Data Security Platform, it also includes centralized policy/key management, auditing, and reporting.

Data Security At Rest, In Transit, and In Use Protegrity Big Data Protector for Hortonworks secures any sensitive data in HDP – at rest in the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS); in use during MapReduce, Hive, and Pig processing; and in transit to and from enterprise data systems, with advanced tokenization and encryption. This protection assures data is secure throughout its lifecycle no matter where it goes or how it’s used. The actual sensitive data is transparently protected with policybased controls, while non-sensitive data can remain in the clear. This ensures maximum usability for users and business processes to continue to mine the data for transformative decision-making insights.

Coarse-Grained Data Security Protegrity Big Data Protector for Hortonworks provides both volume/disk encryption and highly transparent, on-node AES 256 file encryption, leveraging and extending native Hadoop infrastructure to enable the most efficient, effective security available for HDFS. With Protegrity’s consistent policy and key management, and centralized administration, data remains secure and available for authorized users in any protected environment.

Fine-Grained Data Security Protegrity provides additional field-level protection, utilizing Protegrity Vaultless Tokenization (PVT), masking, strong or format-preserving encryption. Each of these technologies provide various benefits for particular use cases. With the highest performance protection available, PVT is ideal for Big Data environments. It protects sensitive data while permitting applications, such as business intelligence platforms, to perform analysis without the need to re-identify the data, minimizing performance impact.

Security & Monitoring Across HDP and Beyond Protegrity Big Data Protector for Hortonworks provides protection throughout the lifecycle of data in Hadoop. As data is ingested from a variety of sources – e.g. files, databases, applications, cloud – Protegrity Big Data Protector tokenizes or encrypts sensitive data files or fields according to the data security policy and places them into secure storage within HDP. Protegrity enhances MapReduce, Hive, or Pig tasks with policy-driven data security functions to support the use of data according to roles. This allows sensitive data to remain secure during analysis, while retaining the visibility critical to the deep business insights promised by Big Data.

As data enters or leaves HDP to the enterprise, or for secondary use, the same policy-level protection, file encryption, and data tokenization is applied. It can be centrally managed, monitored, and administered across HDP, the enterprise, and cloud platforms protected by Protegrity. This continuous protection ensures security throughout HDP and beyond.

Protegrity provides the only unified data security platform that protects diverse sensitive data across the enterprise - in applications, data warehouses, mainframes, big data and cloud environments. We help organizations manage risk, achieve compliance, and safeguard data using encryption and tokenization technologies that integrate seamlessly into the business.
