We had an icident but not big enough to destroy all our properties and it took us 3-4 days to recover (bavkup was available)

With sufficient back-ups in place, plus available infrastructure, we had systems back online within two days and paid no ransom.

Does someone have advice on how they have balanced the risk/reward as it relates to introducing Open-Source Software to organization? My org is dipping its toe into the OSS world and the architecture and risk governance teams are looking to get ahead of these requests by coming up with policies and standards for OSS technology being brought into our environment. To clarify, this is not for software development and CI/CD pipelines, SDLC etc. This is for installing solutions that already exist out there (Zabbix, GreyLog, Prometheus etc.) into the organization's environment. We are looking to provide a balance on the obvious risk with the ability to move fast (like everyone else now).

Which vendor solutions are being considered to "read, identify and redact information" in unstructured data sets? I'm specifically looking at solutions that can mask / redact or hide content within documents, that allow documents to be consumed but certain piece of information to be hidden.

We are considering a scanning solution for detecting Personal Information (PI) in our data assets, mainly AWS S3, DynamoDB, Salesforce, etc. We need the solution to detect PI, identify the type (e.g., infotype), and optionally map it to our own PI categories. We are currently considering BigID. Do you have experience with this tool or any other tools that can help us scan across different data platforms and technologies?
