Last week, Ravi Kumar, Partner Solutions Engineering at Snowflake, shared an article on how ALTR enhances Snowflake Horizon, delivering seamless, scalable security without disruption.
In today’s data-driven world, securing sensitive information while maintaining usability is a major challenge. Snowflake Horizon provides a strong foundation for data security and governance, offering encryption, access control, and auditing tools to help businesses manage their data safely. But for organizations handling highly sensitive information, ALTR supercharges Snowflake’s capabilities with advanced protection layers that go beyond the basics.
With Format-Preserving Encryption (FPE), ALTR encrypts data while preserving its original format—critical for industries like finance and healthcare where structured data is essential. Tokenization adds another layer of security, replacing sensitive data with secure tokens, while real-time monitoring and alerts help organizations detect and respond to threats instantly. Plus, ALTR’s no-code policy management and automated data classification simplify security enforcement, ensuring compliance without added complexity. By integrating ALTR with Snowflake Horizon, businesses gain a powerful security solution that protects data without disrupting operations.
