Data security isn't binary. Between "do nothing" and "delete everything" is a full range of actions, each appropriate for a different exposure, data type, or context.
Teleskope determines that action based on your policies, making automated remediation possible.
Most organizations have data governance policies: retention schedules, data classification frameworks, privacy guidelines. These often saved in documents that security tools never touch.
Teleskope ingests those documents. It reads your existing policies in natural language and translates them into enforceable workflows, without requiring security engineering to manually recode every rule.
When existing policies need to be extended or new workflows need to be created, the Workflow Builder makes it fast and seamless to create automation for any user, beyond engineers.
Create policies by adding triggers, filters, alerts, actions, and outcomes into a visual flow that mirrors how you want issues handled. Workflows branch based on responses and triggers. Everything is visible, configurable, and reviewable before it runs.
Before a policy goes live, Policy Simulation shows exactly how many resources it would touch — so you can validate intent before enforcement begins.
This matters most when expanding automation into new territory. A policy that looks right on paper can have unintended scope. Simulation makes that visible at the review stage, not after an action has already run.
Not every exposure calls for the same response. With Teleskope you can notify the user, redact, quarantine, revoke, relocate, delete, or loop in security teams when their judgment is required.
Teleskope determines the appropriate action by combining what it knows about the data, the context around it, and the organization's business profile, policies, and configured risk appetite.
"Teleskope helps you understand what's wrong with your data access governance and tells you what to do about it."
"As a customer, we've seen Teleskope cut through alert fatigue and actually fix issues — auto-detecting sensitive data, adding the right context, and triggering smart remediation across different stacks. This is what modern data security should feel like."
Enforce them. Teleskope ingests your existing policies — retention schedules, data classification frameworks, regulatory requirements — and translates them into enforceable workflows. The policies your legal and compliance teams developed stay authoritative. Teleskope makes them operational. If your policies need to evolve, the Policy Workflow Builder makes updating them accessible to non-engineers.
Traditional policy engines require security engineers to translate business intent into technical rules — a process that's slow, brittle, and inaccessible to the compliance and legal teams who actually own the policies. The Policy Workflow Builder uses a visual, node-based interface that mirrors how humans think about workflows. Compliance teams can build and adjust policies directly. The output is a structured, enforceable workflow — not a rule someone hand-coded.
It routes the case to human review with full context: what was found, how it was classified, what options are available, and what the system recommends. The goal is to surface only what genuinely requires human judgment — not to create a new alert queue. In practice, the vast majority of high-confidence, well-understood exposures are handled automatically. Edge cases and ambiguous situations reach the team with everything they need to make a fast, informed decision.
Yes. Risk appetite is configurable at multiple levels — by organization, by environment, by data type, by user group. A production database and a development environment can have different rules. A highly regulated business unit can have stricter enforcement than a general operations team. Teleskope applies the right policy in the right context — not a single rule across every finding.
Legal hold is a specific policy workflow — when a hold is triggered (by litigation, regulatory inquiry, or internal investigation), Teleskope can apply it immediately across all connected environments. Data subject to the hold is preserved, protected from deletion, and flagged for legal review. The response is as fast as the trigger — not dependent on a manual process that takes days to reach every system.
Policy Simulation lets teams preview exactly how many resources a policy would affect before it runs — showing the blast radius of any enforcement action before it becomes real. It closes the gap between "we wrote this policy" and "we're confident deploying this policy." It's coming soon.
