, /PRNewswire/ – Symmetry Systems, the Data+AI security company, today announced expanded support for enterprise on-premise environments with new connectors for IBM AS/400, IBM DB2, and Nutanix infrastructure. Combined with existing on-premise capabilities including RDS, Hadoop data lakes, and file shares (Isilon, Nasuni, SMB, NFS), Symmetry now delivers the industry’s only comprehensive Data+AI security platform that provides unified visibility, classification, and protection across cloud, SaaS, hybrid, and legacy on-premise systems-including airgapped environments.
While cloud adoption accelerates, the reality for large enterprises is that critical data still resides in on-premise and legacy systems. Financial institutions process billions in transactions on mainframes daily. Healthcare organizations maintain decades of patient records in legacy databases. Government agencies operate secure, airgapped networks. Manufacturing companies store operational intelligence in diverse on-premise systems. For these organizations, the promise of modern Data+AI security has been incomplete-until now.
The "Get Everywhere" Philosophy: Meeting Customers Where Their Data Lives
Symmetry’s expanded on-premise support reflects the company’s core "get everywhere" philosophy-the commitment to build connectors for any data system customers need to secure, regardless of age or architecture. Unlike point solutions that force organizations to choose between cloud-native and legacy security, Symmetry’s platform architecture is purpose-built to continuously expand coverage based on real customer requirements.
"Our ‘get everywhere’ philosophy means we don’t tell customers which systems we can secure-we ask them where their data lives and build the connectors they need," said Dr. Mohit Tiwari, CEO of Symmetry Systems. "Legacy on-premise systems often contain the most sensitive historical data-decades of patient records, financial transactions, intellectual property, and operational intelligence. Our vision has always been comprehensive Data+AI security everywhere data lives, not just in the cloud. With these new capabilities, including support for airgapped environments, we’re delivering on that promise for enterprises managing hybrid estates and organizations in highly regulated industries where air-gapped deployments (where No customer data, meta data not even the UI is ever outside the customers’ environment) are non-negotiable."
The expanded connectors delivers critical capabilities that enable security teams to:
- Discover a classify, and label sensitive data across IBM AS/400, DB2, Nutanix, RDS, Hadoop data lakes, and file shares (Isilon, Nasuni, SMB, NFS)-with the flexibility to add connectors for any additional systems customers require.
- Secure airgapped environments with on-premise deployment options for government agencies and highly regulated industries
- Gain unified visibility across structured and unstructured data in cloud, SaaS, and on-premise systems from a single platform
- Manage identity and operations insights on top of data classification, correlating cloud identities with on-premise access patterns across hybrid environments
- Accelerate cloud migration by understanding data sensitivity and dependencies in legacy systems before migration
- Enable compliance reporting across the entire data estate for GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and emerging AI governance requirements
- Reduce AI risks by discovering and classifying sensitive data in legacy systems being used to train AI models
The expanded on-premise capabilities are available now to Symmetry Systems customers. Organizations can learn more and request a demo at https://www.symmetry-systems.com/get-started.
