Aurva — Runtime Data Security, Access Monitoring & AI Security

Aurva is a modern, runtime-first data security platform designed to provide real-time visibility and control over sensitive data access, usage, and AI interactions across cloud, SaaS, and hybrid environments.Aurva addresses the limitations of traditional security tools that rely on static scans, delayed logs, or permission-only views by delivering identity-centric, runtime insights.

Runtime Data Security Posture Management (DSPM)

Aurva’s DSPM solution helps organizations understand and reduce sensitive data risk by combining data discovery, identity context, and runtime exposure insights.

Aurva DSPM enables organizations to clearly answer:

What sensitive data exists
Where that data is located
Who (human and non-human identities) can access it
How exposed or risky the data is in real usage

Aurva continuously discovers and classifies sensitive data such as personally identifiable information (PII), financial data, and regulated data across databases, data warehouses, object storage, and SaaS platforms. Classification is enriched with contextual metadata and natural language processing for higher accuracy.

Unlike traditional DSPM tools that focus only on static data locations, Aurva links sensitive data to actual access paths and identities. This identity-aware approach helps security teams identify over-privileged access, misconfigurations, and exposure risks that truly matter.

Aurva also prioritizes data risks using real posture signals such as sensitivity, exposure level, access sprawl, and external sharing. This allows teams to focus remediation efforts on high-impact data assets rather than low-risk findings.

Runtime Database Activity Monitoring (DAM)

Aurva provides real-time Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) to track actual data access at runtime.

Aurva monitors database activity as it happens, capturing queries and access events across modern data platforms. Every access event is correlated with the responsible identity, including users, service accounts, applications, and automated processes.

This runtime visibility allows organizations to detect suspicious or unexpected behavior such as abnormal query patterns, large data extractions, or access outside normal usage contexts. Because monitoring occurs at runtime, security teams gain immediate insight rather than relying on delayed audit logs.

Aurva DAM helps organizations understand not just who can access data, but who is actually accessing it and how that access occurs.

Aurva extends its runtime security model to AI and machine-learning workloads, addressing risks that emerge during live AI usage rather than static configurations.
Aurva’s AI security capabilities provide runtime visibility into:
• AI model access and usage
• Prompt interactions
• Vector database queries
• Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows

Aurva correlates AI activity with identities to ensure that AI interactions are accountable and traceable. This helps organizations identify misuse, sensitive data exposure, or abnormal AI behavior as it occurs.
By monitoring AI usage at runtime, Aurva enables organizations to secure emerging AI attack surfaces that traditional tools often miss.

Runtime AI Security

Core Platform Principles

Aurva is built on three core principles:

Runtime-First Visibility
Aurva captures security-relevant events as they occur, providing near real-time awareness of sensitive data access and AI usage.

Identity-Centric Context
Every data access and AI interaction is mapped to a human or non-human identity, enabling meaningful risk assessment and investigation.

Actionable Risk Prioritization
Aurva focuses on surfacing high-impact risks with clear context, reducing noise and improving response efficiency.

Why Aurva

Aurva helps organizations:
• Gain continuous visibility into sensitive data access
• Understand real data exposure beyond static permissions
• Reduce over-privileged and risky access
• Secure AI usage during live operations
• Strengthen data security posture with runtime intelligence
