Symmetry Systems, the industry’s first hybrid cloud data security platform, today announced its partnership with Trace3, a premier provider of IT solutions and consultation services, to expand the company’s flagship solution, DataGuard, into new markets. The partnership will enable joint customers to experience holistic data security whether they operate on-prem or within AWS, GCP, or Azure, while benefiting from cutting-edge research and insights provided by the Trace3 Innovation Research Group.

"In the data access governance space, Symmetry DataGuard differentiates itself with its ability to analyze data objects and identities previously missed by traditional solutions so security teams can accurately contextualize the risk of the data in their environment," said Katherine Walther, VP, Innovation at Trace3. “We look forward to bringing this innovative approach to our clients and organizations who still find themselves grappling to find efficient and effective ways to meet data security policies and compliance regulations.”
