Contrast was founded over 8 years ago to help organizations achieve exceptional app/API security outcomes. Contrast’s key innovation is analyzing apps/APIs from “inside-out” rather than traditional “outside-in” approaches. Our runtime security solution solves the speed, accuracy, scalability, and ease-of-use challenges associated with traditional application security technologies. We invented, patented, and pioneered the use of runtime security for both appsec testing and protection.With “runtime security,” Contrast provides extremely high fidelity security findings in real time at a dramatically accelerated pace to empower developers. We’ve been able to help organizations focus on the vulnerabilities that matter, achieving dramatic reductions in backlog, mean time to remediate (MTTR), and new vulnerability rate (NVR). Customers that have leveraged our runtime security approach have seen developer productivity improve 13%, AppSec teams efficiency gain by 30% and a 258% return on their investment (source: IDC ROI Floor and Decor).

Solution description:
To summarize, our company has created an unrivaled solution for detecting various types of privacy data across numerous unstructured data sources, such as Email, FileShares, Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint, and more, whether on-premise or cloud-based. The second phase involves a sophisticated policy engine that facilitates the efficient removal of privacy data from all these sources. This engine allows for the distribution of reports to individual users, detailing the privacy data set to be cleared. Users can review their data and indicate if any should be retained. In addition to inboxes etc. we have also build an advanced data custodian solution, to make it easy for organisations to assign and manage data custodians for data that has no natural owner. e.g. data in old fileshares, SharePoint etc. Moreover, we've implemented an automated system for cleaning up privacy data, along with a data subject analysis tool specifically designed for handling data leaks or breaches. In the event of a data breach, our system can rapidly identify the affected individuals and the specific types of data compromised. This capability enables organizations to promptly inform all affected parties. Our solution is versatile, supporting all major European languages, enhancing its applicability across diverse geographical regions.
