Adaptive is a platform for data security that prevents sensitive data from being exposed to all entities, human and nonhuman. It features an agentless architecture with zero network reconfiguration, and can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud. The platform allows organizations to share privileged data access without sharing credentials, improving security posture. It allows for just-in time access to a variety of data sources including databases, cloud infrastructure, data warehouses and web services. Adaptive facilitates non-human access to data by connecting third-party ETL pipelines or tools through a central interface, without exposing credentials for data sources. The platform offers data masking and tokenization for nonprivileged users, without changing access workflows. The platform provides a comprehensive audibility by integrating identity-based audit trails into all resources.
