Detect with Discover: Onboarding Guide

Requirement:

  • Snowflake Enterprise Edition or higher

  • SDD and classification frameworks enabled in Immuta. If you do not know if they are enabled, collaborate with your Immuta representative to turn on SDD and classification frameworks in your Immuta tenant.

Prerequisites

Sensitivity shown for Snowflake only

Currently, Detect only supports filtering by tag and showing sensitivity of audit records for Snowflake.

Overview

This onboarding process is recommended for organizations that have not tagged any sensitive data yet. Immuta will identify, classify, and tag your data. After you are fully onboarded, you will see Detect dashboards with information on your organization's data use and data sensitivity, and the Discover data inventory dashboard will show details about the data that was scanned.

Configuration steps

  1. Enable sensitive data discovery (SDD): SDD will sample and tag your data based on the sensitive data detected. These tags are necessary for the classification framework tags in step 2 to be applied.

  2. Adjust or accept entity and classification tags: After SDD and classification frameworks have been enabled and run, it may be necessary to adjust the output tags based on your organization's data, security, and compliance needs.

  3. View Immuta Detect: Once all tags are correctly applied, the Detect dashboards will reflect accurate audit information. Navigate through Immuta Detect and explore the dashboards that visualize the sensitive data in your data environment.

Next steps

After you are happy with the Detect dashboards on the select data sources you enabled, you can integrate Detect with more of your data environment.
