Data and analytics are very versatile skillsets that can be combined with other skillsets to create a unique career profession


M7: Lately, many companies have faced difficulty in keeping pace with GDPR compliance. What are the toughest challenges to international privacy compliance, in your opinion?
PT:
There are many challenges that I observe. First, companies have too many complex data sources and data types that contain personal information. It makes it difficult to identify where they keep PI/PII data and they lack the proper technology to tie the sensitive data to a person or entity. Secondly, companies have disjointed processes to catalog and report on GDPR compliance. This leads to a break in the information that they need to find and subsequently create a Data Subject Access Request (DSAR). They also cannot complete an end-to-end Privacy Impact Analysis because they do not have the trusted information in a single system. Lastly, this definition and scope of private and sensitive data varies across different protection and privacy regulations. Companies must take a flexible multi-prong approach to accurately and comprehensively discover and tag personal data for the variety of regulations that they must comply with. It is not a simple “tag once and it's done” approach given the complexity of data and the different regulations


M7: You have had an exemplary professional journey of over 18 years. Seeing the rapid change in technology and digitalization what future do you predict for the Data intelligence landscape?
PT:
Over the course of my professional career, the scope and complexity of the data management role has changed tremendously. It is no longer a simple data management job. Nowadays, there are additional responsibilities around analytics, data engineering, data literacy and AI/ML. The role must also work closely with the Chief Privacy Officer and Chief Security Officer to comply and secure the company’s most critical data. I do not expect this to decrease in the future, rather grow more in intensity and speed. Therefore, it is imperative for data professionals to rely on AI/ML predictive analytics and insights to help manage and govern their data faster and more efficiently. They need to take a proactive approach to data quality issues and remediation. From a talent pipeline perspective, I also predict that data professionals become increasingly broader in their knowledge and skillset in order to become successful in their role.

M7: Corinium Global Intelligence recently named you in their 2022 Global Top 100 Innovators in Data & Analytics Report. What do you believe is your driving force behind your proven track records and achievements?
PT:
I am very fortunate to have received this nomination and to be able to share my insights with the Corinium Global Intelligence audience. I had the absolute pleasure and unique opportunity in the last two years to explore, research, discuss and interrogate with my data & analytics peers. My driving force behind my dedication to data has been my fundamental belief that all data & analytics trends start from strong data governance. Advances in AI and Machine Learning are not scalable without proper data governance program in place. I believe in tying back the fundamentals with the new innovations.


M7: This is the last question but it is an important one for our readers. What is your advice for young women considering a career in data analytics?
PT:
I highly recommend young women to consider a career in data analytics and data governance. There are many different roles and careers in this field that require diverse thinking so it is important to have a place in this industry. Also, I would say this is a high growth and exciting area that transcends all industries. Data and analytics are very versatile skillsets that can be combined with other skillsets to create a unique career profession. I recommend doing your research in this field and then network with other professionals to learn as much as possible throughout your career!

Radiant Logic Announces RadiantOne AI, with New Generative AI Data Assistant “AIDA”

Radiant Logic | January 11, 2024

Radiant Logic, the Identity Data Fabric company, today unveiled RadiantOne AI, its data lake powered Artificial Intelligence engine, and AIDA, its Generative AI Data Assistant. RadiantOne AI is designed to complement your existing tech stack and governance products by correlating data across multiple sources and providing contextual information to drive better decision making. The result is a radical reduction in the time and resources needed to gather the data required to effectively meet audit demands—meaning fewer security gaps and increased compliance with organizational policies. The first capability to be unveiled on RadiantOne AI is a truly automated user access review (UAR) process, expertly guided by AIDA. Many business leaders are familiar with the tedious UAR process – it’s crucial for demonstrating compliance and improving organizational security posture. But laborious processes can often end in a “bulk approval” to save time and check an audit box instead of accurately reviewing access rights to ensure the right business outcomes. RadiantOne’s AI-driven approach will be a paradigm shift in the way people work, forever transforming and streamlining the usually time-consuming UAR process down to days and minutes instead of months. “Historically, user access reviews are a highly manual process–a ‘necessary evil’ within security practices. This approach not only creates fatigue for the team but also introduces a considerable amount of risk,” says Dr. John Pritchard, Chief Product Officer at Radiant Logic. “While this may work in the short term to satisfy auditor requirements, the company’s assets are never truly protected. There is also still the risk that something may be overlooked, or someone within the business has retained access to something they shouldn’t. With RadiantOne AI and AIDA, existing IAM and IGA processes can be automated and simplified for overworked teams trying to comb through mountains of user access data to make the right decisions to protect their organizations.” With RadiantOne AI, conducting a user access review becomes as easy as following AIDA’s guidance. Using the power of large language models to drive advanced data correlation, contextualization and analysis, combined with an intuitive data visualization dashboard, AIDA will reinvent the user access review ritual. Based on an organization's proprietary data, the fully guided UAR experience will allow reviewers to interact and pose questions to AIDA using natural human language, like “where does this access come from?” or “show me who else has these access rights?” AIDA will highlight any potential user access risks, offer expert insight, and suggest remediations or access modifications based on an organization’s policies. Any changes, such as low risk bulk access approvals or revoking atypical access rights, are completed via a click of a button, so there’s less training required to complete the reviews and less risk of human error during the process. RadiantOne AI’s AIDA-guided user access review capability works to provide enterprise organizations with: Automated workflows: Leverage vast data sets and contextual insights to make intelligent and confident decisions about access rights. Simplified compliance: Easily detect over-privileged accounts or atypical access rights with intuitive data visualization techniques. Greater visibility into user actions: Get beyond roles quickly to see who has access to what and how they received that access so insights and remediations are easily actionable. Click-button remediation: Based on the insights and recommendations from AIDA, reviewers can approve or revoke access or atypical rights individually or take bulk approval/rejection actions with the click of a button. Data into the hands of business owners: Put relevant, risk-based identity data insights into the hands of business users in the language they understand to make it a breeze to adhere to compliance policies. “User access reviews with AIDA are just the beginning,” comments Joe Sander, Radiant Logic’s CEO. “Using RadiantOne’s AI engine, we see potential to revolutionize identity data management, governance, risk, compliance and cybersecurity processes by removing complexity as a roadblock. This frees up critical IT and security resources to focus on other business-critical tasks and expands the role of identity to truly be a business enabler.” RadiantOne AI comes on the heels of the completion of the integration of Brainwave Identity Analytics into the RadiantOne Identity Data Platform. AIDA will initially be available as a complement to the RadiantOne Identity Analytics solution. About Radiant Logic Radiant Logic, the identity data experts, helps organizations turn identity data into a strategic asset that drives automated governance, enhanced security, and operational efficiency. Our RadiantOne Identity Data Platform removes complexity as a roadblock to identity-first strategies by creating an authoritative data source for real-time, context-aware controls. We provide visibility and actionable insights to intelligently detect and remediate risk using AI/ML-powered identity analytics. With RadiantOne, organizations are able to tap into the wealth of information across the infrastructure, combining context and analytics to deploy governance that works for the most advanced use cases.
