Simple Data Separation for Government
Strengthening Data Security and Compliance for Government Agencies
Overview
Public sector organizations and government agencies manage a significant amount of sensitive data, from citizen information to classified records. Built on the ServiceNow platform, Yansa Labs’ Simple Data Separation app addresses these agencies' critical needs for secure, efficient, and compliant data management, streamlining access control and enhancing security across departments, locations, and access levels.
Challenges Facing Government Agencies in Data Management
Regulatory Compliance and Auditability Government agencies are subject to stringent compliance regulations, including federal, state, and local laws that mandate secure handling and limited access to sensitive data. Ensuring compliance can be challenging, requiring continuous, precise control and documentation of data access and security protocols.
Access Control Across Complex Hierarchies Agencies often manage data access across varied groups, departments, and geographical regions, each with unique security needs. Without the right tools, enforcing attribute-based access restrictions can be labor-intensive and prone to human error, increasing the risk of unauthorized access.
Resource Constraints and Operational Efficiency Managing data access controls manually is resource-intensive, diverting IT personnel from mission-critical tasks and creating operational bottlenecks. Government agencies require an efficient, automated solution that can minimize the burden on IT staff while scaling with the agency's needs.
Solution: Simple Data Separation on ServiceNow
Simple Data Separation offers government agencies a powerful, easy-to-use solution for managing data security, access control, and compliance on the ServiceNow platform. Key features include:
Automated Data Segmentation by Group, Department, and Location Simple Data Separation’s rule-based data separation capabilities allow agencies to enforce data access restrictions by specific groups, regions, and departments. This automation ensures secure access without requiring extensive manual configuration, reducing the potential for errors and providing a more efficient alternative to traditional Domain Separation.
Compliance-Ready Access Management Simple Data Separation is designed to support the compliance requirements of government agencies, providing structured and secure separation rules that make it easier to align with various regulatory standards. By enforcing policies consistently, agencies can reduce the effort needed to maintain audit readiness and improve overall data security.
Low Maintenance, Seamless Integration on ServiceNow Simple Data Separation integrates easily into existing ServiceNow implementation. Its low-maintenance design minimizes the need for ongoing oversight, while its scalable configuration ensures the app can grow with an agency’s evolving data management needs.
