NEW YORK – September 26, 2023 – BigID, the industry leading platform for data security, privacy, compliance and governance, today has been named a strong performer in its debut in The Forrester Wave™: Data Governance Solutions, Q3 2023.

The Forrester report emphasized that since their last evaluation, "The data governance solution market has shifted from an emerging space to an established and significantly more mature one…." According to the report, "The data governance market is no longer just about regulatory compliance; today, it helps businesses realize the true potential of their data."

BigID received the highest scores possible in four criteria, including data discovery; security/privacy/ compliance features; policy development & management; and partner ecosystem.

Forrester noted that "BigID has branched out from its privacy and security vendor roots into a data discovery and governance solution via a modular framework of native apps and integrated paid partnerships. The company's vision is to enable organizations to proactively discover, manage, protect, and get value from their data in a single platform."

"As data governance use cases continue to evolve within organizations, the importance of understanding your data, along with its security and privacy implications, has grown significantly. BigID has identified the foundation to a successful data governance program lies in the capacity to discover and classify all your data sources, regardless of their format or location. Our acknowledgment by Forrester serves, in our opinion, as a testament to BigID's ongoing dedication and steadfast commitment to reshaping data governance standards," said Alan Dayley, Director of Analyst Relations at BigID.
