Introducing Context Previews - Instantly view the context around data classifications

A credit card number has been identified in one of your S3 buckets. But how did it get there? And is it a sign of a bigger issue? Teleskope’s newest feature makes it easy to instantly answer those questions, without having to go to the original data source. 

Teleskope streamlines data protection, discovering and classifying sensitive data at scale. Now with Context Previews, when you view a data classification you won’t just see the data entity type identified – you can also preview the surrounding context directly within that source.

This enables Teleskope users to:

• Explore their data and get full context on classifications
• Investigate policy violations in real-time, without having to go to the source

‍

Explore your data and view context within the Data Catalog

Instantly validate classifications and understand how they occurred. With Context Previews, you can view the full context of a classification without leaving the Data Catalog. For example, if PII is identified within text data, you can view the surrounding text and evaluate exactly what that PII is, how it ended up in that location, and whether it presents genuine risk.

Investigate policy violations in real-time

When sensitive or personal data is classified, you need more context to determine the risk. Now, Teleskope provides that context without having to go to the data source. Context Previews enable your team to effectively triage potential violations and quickly determine which are high-risk and which are harmless.

Preview context for structured and unstructured data

With Context Previews, you can preview context for classifications of both structured and unstructured data. 

• For columnar data, you can view the content of up to 50 rows in the classified column. 
• For unstructured data, you can view the content surrounding the classified element. 

Context Previews are available for connectors supported by Teleskope spanning columnar data, unstructured or text data, code files, images, messaging, and more. Only admins in the platform can view Context Previews, and you can determine whether admins view the original data or a redacted version.

Context Previews are now available for all Teleskope customers. Schedule a demo to see it in action.
