Automate Data Security, Governance and Compliance
Control unstructured data risk. Classify, protect and govern file data across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
Align Unstructured Data to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework
Security leaders are under pressure to demonstrate measurable controls aligned to international security standards such as ISO 27001; national standards such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF); while also meeting privacy regulations such as GDPR, and CCPA/CPRA; industry-specific regulations including HIPAA and PCI DSS; and emerging AI governance mandates.

How Komprise Supports It
Enterprise-wide data governance with policy-based automation; role-based access controls; audit-ready reporting; risk visibility across unstructured data to align storage, security and compliance with business objectives.
Global metadata indexing across file and object storage; detect sensitive and regulated data; map data lineage.
Policy-driven retention, deletion and confinement; tier cold data to immutable object storage and reduce ransomware attack surface.
Continuous Smart Data Workflows monitor new and changed data, surface policy violations automatically.
Centralized discovery and reporting for regulators, audits and incident response teams.
Logically isolated, immutable object copies reduce ransomware blast radius and accelerate recovery; bulk recalls automate recovery of entire project data.
Since the NIST CSF is designed to complement and be compatible with numerous global standards, it is ideal for unifying cybersecurity efforts. Komprise can strengthen your posture across all six NIST functions, by providing metadata-driven visibility, data classification and policy automation across NAS and cloud storage.
Detect and Classify Sensitive Data
Continuously discover and tag regulated data across NAS and cloud storage.
- Identify PII, personal data,and sensitive data using built-in scanners, keyword and regex search.
- Tag data for compliance to privacy and security regulations and internal policies.
- Segment and confine regulated data stored in the wrong location.
Reduce Ransomware Risk and Shrink the Attack Surface
Move inactive data off primary NAS to secure, immutable object storage.
- Tier cold data transparently without disrupting user access.
- Reduce exposed primary storage footprint by 80%+.
- Maintain a logically isolated recovery copy while shrinking backup costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Komprise support unstructured data security and compliance?
Automate unstructured data discovery, classification, tagging, and zero-move ingestion to AI pipelines, fueling better insights, lower costs, and faster outcomes. What makes Komprise unique is that you have a global view and orchestration of all your data across silos, even as data moves or infrastructure changes.
How does Komprise help reduce ransomware risk and costs?
Komprise identifies inactive (cold) data and transparently tiers it to low-cost, immutable object storage. This reduces the amount of data exposed on primary NAS systems, shrinks the ransomware blast radius and creates a logically isolated recovery copy for faster, more resilient recovery.
At the same time, moving cold data off expensive primary storage significantly lowers infrastructure costs, defers storage refresh cycles and reduces cloud spend, strengthening both your security posture and your storage economics.
Does Komprise replace existing security or IAM tools?
No. Komprise complements existing storage, identity and security investments. Komprise enhances visibility and lifecycle governance across unstructured data, helping security teams enforce least-privilege access and defensible data minimization strategies without disrupting applications.
How does Komprise support AI governance and prevent improper AI ingestion?
Komprise detects and tags sensitive or regulated datasets before they are used in AI workflows. By enabling policy-based controls and metadata-driven classification, organizations can prevent the ingestion of restricted data into AI models and support compliance with regulations such as the EU AI Act.
What types of environments does Komprise secure?
Komprise supports heterogeneous NAS, object storage and multi-cloud environments, providing unified metadata visibility and governance across hybrid infrastructures without vendor lock-in.
