BigID, a leader in data security, privacy, compliance, and governance, has announced BigID Next, the industry’s first cloud-native, AI-powered Data Security Platform designed to help enterprises discover, manage, and protect data at scale. Featuring a modular, AI-assisted architecture, BigID Next enables organizations to take full control of their data while adapting to evolving risk and compliance challenges in the age of AI.
The Next Phase of Data Security & Governance
BigID, originally founded to address data visibility challenges, has led data discovery and classification efforts to help enterprises comply with regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and PCI DSS. As cloud adoption accelerates and AI reshapes enterprise operations, the need for risk-aware, AI-driven data security has become paramount. BigID Next marks a significant evolution—delivering a future-proof, AI-first approach to securing and governing data across hybrid, multi-cloud, SaaS, and on-prem environments.
“Since BigID started, requirements for data visibility and control have expanded in response to security concerns, the proliferation of privacy and other data regulations like ITAR and PCI, an accelerated shift to cloud, and, of course, new demands around AI,” said Nimrod Vax, co-founder and Head of Product at BigID. “Building a future-proof data platform that can cover all of the control needs around AI risk security, compliance, and privacy requires a rethink. BigID Next is that solution – it’s a next-gen approach to giving organizations unmatched visibility and control over their data.”
