Soveren Reviews & Product Details

Sensitive data observability (DSPM). With Soveren you can fulfill your mission-critical production data observability and security goals. Soveren helps identify and protect crown jewels in Kubernetes-based environments. It automatically discovers sensitive data and assets, mapping the flows between them and immediately alerting you before risks become full-blown incidents. Our mission is to help leading organizations protect millions of consumer data records without slowing down their business. We have built our solution in partnership with the most innovative security leaders in Europe and the US. Soveren integrates natively with Kubernetes, analyzing network traffic with zero impact on application latency or performance. It uses proprietary ML algorithms to discover and classify sensitive data within data flows in near real-time with 95% detection rate out of the box. We raised $10M from the who-is-who in security and enterprise SaaS: the founders and CEOs of Datadog, Snyk, Palo Alto Networks, Slack, Tessian, MuleSoft, DeepMind, and a former CISO of Amazon. We are also backed by the amazing founders of Airbnb, Deel, N26, Algolia, as well as tier-one London-based VCs.

Product Description

Soveren (DSPM) builds and maintains an automated catalog of data, services, data stores, and API endpoints across your entire application environment and third-party integrations. It discovers and classifies sensitive data with high precision to identify sensitive data flows and top-priority assets. It then combines asset-related context (connection between services, protocols, associated data stores, etc.) and data-related context (data types, sensitivity, etc.) to detect baseline changes and security risks — such as new assets accessing sensitive data, changes in external PII sharing, public availability of PII, or PCI data outside of the PCI DSS perimeter. You can leverage out-of-the-box policies or set up custom ones to initiate workflows and real-time alerts in tools like Jira and Slack. Such alerts include security, privacy, and compliance changes, misconfigurations, and risks.

Soveren continuously monitors the security state of data stores and identifies common risks, such as disabled encryption, public availability, disabled audit trail, etc.

Soveren Demo - Audit and ensure data compliance

Soveren combines data-flow analysis with rich asset-level context. It reports on compliance and alerts in case of risks such as: - Security violations, e.g., customer data located in testing or staging environments. - Privacy violations, e.g., EU-US or other cross-border PII transmissions. -...

Soveren Demo - Minimize third-party data exposure

Soveren detects external data flows and helps monitor changes and set up policies to minimize data sharing (e.g., high re-identification potential for PII in APIs).

"Soveren gives me visibility into who my PII data flows"

5/5

What do you like best about Soveren?

With Soveren I'm much more confident in our privacy compliance.

The system shows me all the personal data that flows in, out and within my infrastructure and flags privacy risks, in a very intuitive UX/UI dashboard.

I didn't have to make any changes at the application level or change any of my existing services. Simple and fast to get up and running (took about an hour to set up).

Their technical support team was extremely responsive and knowledgeable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Soveren?

The documentation didn't include my specific setup, but I reached out to the support team and they were right on hand to help. They were very familiar with all the technicalities I need and walked me through the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Soveren:

Consider what your ideal setup would be and don't hesitate to contact their technical team for help in designing your setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Soveren solving and how is that benefiting you?

Soveren solves the problem of continuously scanning for privacy compliance violations and PII anomalies in my application and infrastructure. It also gives me visibility into my APIs in general, which proved to be a very nice side-effect.

Short release cycles and a growing team mean that data flows are constantly evolving. To stay on top of that, we would need to be in a constant mode of privacy code reviews and DPIA / data mapping. Soveren does this automatically for me, saving us a lot of time and money.

On top of that, Soveren helps us quickly and easily answer any requests from clients that are increasingly demanding on privacy compliance. It's a good way for us to show clients that at Dayzz we take privacy very seriously and have it under control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Soveren's real-time PII usage analytics and reporting is a kind of magic"

5/5

What do you like best about Soveren?

- Complete overview of PII in all endpoints

- Flagging privacy incident and high risk APIs, services and users

- Monitoring is continuous - our product and infra are constantly evolving

- It's the next level in privacy compliance

- Knowing the unknowns

- No changes in code, super easy to deploy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Soveren?

Nothing to dislike so far. Recently it became much easier to navigate to the causes of incidents Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Soveren solving and how is that benefiting you?

At the end of the day it's about staying GDPR compliant. It help us tremendously in two areas:

1. Huge time saver. Reviewing all api's and keeping our datamap up to date before Soveren was painstaking and tedious. Soveren takes care of this automatically.

2. No GDPR violations. Our clients are not supposed to handle sensitive data like credit card numbers on our network, but it was never possible to know for sure if they weren't. Soveren dectects the type of PII my clients handle (without revealing the actual data) so now I know the unknown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flag and fix privacy compliance incidents automatically and immediately"

5/5

What do you like best about Soveren?

- Soveren is a great time saver for CCPA compliance

- Automatic PII usage detection

- Identifying privacy compliance risk and where to fix it

- Very easy to use dashboard, all in one place

- Great support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Soveren?

No PII is sent to Soveren, which is great for a security. But their dashboard is so convenient, that I sometimes just want to see the actual PII right there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Soveren solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't have to become a full legal expert anymore to implement privacy laws in my infrastructure.

Soveren automatically notifies me about privacy risks / incidents and which services, APIs and users involved. I can remediate the risk and have on point discussions with legal and product management about what they should fix on their end. We used to go in circles, now I just open the dashboard and pinpoint the problems we have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
