Announcing the general availability of attribute-based access controls (ABAC) in Gravity

Starburst has announced the general availability of attribute-based access controls (ABAC) in its Gravity platform, a system that allows data administrators to manage permissions based on user and data context factors, enhancing scalability and data governance. This release includes AI-powered data classification, which reduces manual tagging by suggesting relevant tags through an AI language model, thereby minimizing human error and improving data security. The ABAC framework allows tagging at various data levels, enabling the creation of policies with specified scopes, matching expressions, privileges, and optional expiration times. Additional features include real-time column masks and row filters that provide cell-level security by obfuscating or reducing data visibility based on user roles. The AI data classification currently supports around 22 PII and location-based classifiers, with plans to expand these offerings and allow for custom classifier definitions in the future.
