Are you an enterprise leader managing complex, distributed data lakehouses? Organizations often face:
Modern compute engines frequently circumvent traditional security layers
Struggling to apply uniform security rules across various querying engines
BRAID provides secure, rule-based access to local and remote data holdings by bridging modern lakehouses with enterprise identity. Users and data processing engines access storage through an industry standard S3 API that transparently performs the authentication, authorization, and routing required for access. By capturing user context, it enforces dynamic, attribute-based access controls universally, delivering standards-based, auditable data governance through a single, secure gateway without requiring modifications to your compute clusters.
Unlike integrating directly with disparate data sources or relying on engine-specific security plugins, BRAID provides compute-agnostic security. It simplifies architecture by presenting an industry standard S3 interface to all query engines while guaranteeing full auditing, logging, secure authentication, and routing for every request. By enforcing policy at the proxy layer, Dark Wolf ensures your data remains protected by a unified access model, whether accessed by data scientists, automated pipelines, or ad-hoc analytics.
Dark Wolf has redefined enterprise storage access for the Intelligence Community by offering a flexible, decentralized solution that spans mixed-media environments, including cloud and physical on-premise nodes. This approach, including our VFS distributed data platform and BRAID, transforms traditional storage silos into a scalable, resilient framework that delivers data whenever and wherever it is required by the mission, while simultaneously ensuring open-API access, full auditing, logging, and secure authentication for authorized users.
