Protegrity announced that it has extended its partnership with Exasol. This includes certification and integration with Protegrity's Application Protector REST API, a data security solution. The new integration will offer customers a level of data interoperability, flexibility, and enhanced data protection capabilities which is unrivalled in the market.

Protegrity's REST API enables Exasol to take advantage of the constantly evolving API economy, allowing organizations to use APIs flexibly as they connect between platforms and applications, supporting true data interoperability. Protegrity's Rest API architecture also allows organizations to connect to legacy applications, and its interoperability assists in managing cross-border data flows. Anyone using an API can now deliver a cross-border data flow in a compliant, scalable, secure, and auditable manner.

Protegrity's rest API separates protection of the data processing, which can be undertaken either on-premises or in a cloud environment. By leveraging the power of REST API, Exasol users can benefit from a secure and standardised approach to protect their data assets with comprehensive data protection capabilities, including data masking, encryption, tokenisation, and fine-grained access controls. The successful partnership between the two organizations spans more than five years and has enabled customers to confidently run analytics against sensitive and private data securely and at scale.

Organizations rely on data-driven decision making, but many are hampered by concerns over managing data security and compliance requirements in their analytics workflow. The Protegrity and Exasol partnership has enabled customers to remove those concerns and run analytics securely, enabling quick deployment, minimising disruption without impacting query response times or data processing capabilities. Now with modern technology constantly evolving, Exasol can support whatever use cases or systems its customers are deploying, offering a seamless and robust solution for safeguarding sensitive data within its database environment.

Likewise, Protegrity can support any vendor deployed in the Cloud looking to utilise its REST API. The Exasol-Protegrity integration with Application Protector REST API is available with the release of Exasol 7.1.21 and Exasol v8. Additionally, as Exasol deploys both existing and newer versions, these are automatically upgraded and updated via the REST API service, regardless of the version.
