Yeah the &quot;without manual classification&quot; part is the real ask, because tagging data by hand doesn&#39;t scale and always leaves gaps. Varonis is the standout for this, its whole model is automatically discovering and classifying sensitive data across your environment, then enforcing least-privilege access and flagging risky exposure, so you&#39;re not relying on humans to label everything. Virtru automates encryption based on rules and data patterns, so protection applies without a manual sorting step. Imperva also brings automated discovery and classification on the database side. To be real, no auto-classification is perfect, so I&#39;d run each against a sample of your actual data and check the false-positive and miss rate before trusting it to drive access control. What&#39;s your environment mostly, cloud file stores, on-prem, databases? That determines which one classifies most accurately for you.
