Our Story.
In 2016, a simple but powerful idea sparked a quiet revolution: What if companies could manage privacy, security, and governance – starting with the data itself: not the network, not the endpoints, not the checklists… but the data?
Back then, data was exploding. Regulations were shifting. AI was on the rise. And enterprises were flying blind — unable to truly see their data, let alone understand or control it.
BigID changed that.
We pioneered a new, data-first approach. One rooted in deep intelligence — to know what data is, who it belongs to, how it’s used, and why it matters. That innovation earned BigID the top spot at the RSA Innovation Sandbox — as the first platform to connect the dots contextually across data for privacy, security, and governance alike.
And we didn’t stop there.
- We built the first identity-aware discovery.
- The first actionable DSPM.
- The first complete Data Security Platform.
- The first to deliver controls for all data — everywhere: cloud, SaaS, unstructured, pipelines, and AI.
Backed by patented tech and real research — not buzzwords — BigID delivers intelligence you can trust: from zero-config classification to smart pattern matching to AI-aware data mapping.
