MIAMI and SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: VRNS) today announced a new partnership with Pure Storage (NYSE: PSTG), a leading provider of advanced data storage technology and services. As the first data security company to natively integrate with Pure Storage, Varonis enables customers to proactively secure their sensitive data, detect threats, and comply with evolving data and AI privacy rules.

By partnering, Varonis’ AI-powered platform enables Pure Storage customers to automatically:

- Reduce data exposure. Varonis maps complex permissions, such as nested groups and inheritance, right-sizes access, and automatically fixes excessive permissions, like removing over-privileged access.
- Detect and stop threats. Varonis uses AI and machine learning to analyze user behavior to detect threats, suspicious activity, and malicious insiders. With Varonis Managed Data Detection and Response (MDDR), Pure Storage customers can extend their teams with a 24x7x365 incident response SLA.

Customers love Pure Storage, and we are thrilled to partner to ensure that they can innovate with AI securely.”

By combining Pure Storage's layered resilience approach and indelible snapshots with Varonis' intelligent data security, customers can confidently protect their unstructured data, mitigate risk, and maintain uninterrupted operations.”
