About The Customer
Cloudera is a modern platform for machine learning and analytics optimized for the cloud. The company transforms vast amounts of complex data into clear and actionable insights to help some of the world’s largest healthcare, financial services, insurance, public sector, and other enterprises solve their most challenging business problems. The company is headquartered in Palo Alto, CA and has 1,600 users. The main objective of the company is to secure its users, apps, and very sensitive data in cloud applications.
The Challenge
As Cloudera grew, the time-intensive access controls it relied on to help safeguard its data secured in Cloud-based applications struggled to scale. To secure its users, apps, and very sensitive data in cloud applications, Cloudera added a cloud access security broker (CASB) solution to track and monitor all cloud activity and gained unparalleled visibility to speed remediation and mitigate risk. Protecting that data—much of it highly sensitive, personally identifiable, and subject to regulation—is Cloudera CISO Eddie Garcia’s top priority.
The Solution
Cloudera added a cloud access security broker (CASB) solution, Cisco Cloudlock, to track and monitor all cloud activity. This solution expedited any needed remediation by automatically pinpointing and notifying the team of any confidential or restricted file sharing in violation of Cloudera's policies. Cloudlock has also delivered insight across Cloudera's cloud platforms, enabling the company to focus investments on mitigating risk. The new visibility provided by Cloudlock has strengthened protections in Salesforce, Google, and Box.
Operational Impact
  • Secures users and data in Salesforce, Google, Okta and Box
  • Increased visibility with cloud tracking and monitoring capabilities
  • Ensured integrity and accuracy of massive datasets
  • Cloudlock insights have enabled Cloudera to build KPIs, metrics, and dashboards to help their leadership and management team understand how they’re reducing risk
  • Cloudlock is helping Cloudera identify and organize their assets better while defining and enforcing policies for content, collaboration, and remote application access
