Blog post from Starburst
The integration of Starburst and Immuta facilitates rapid and controlled access to data while maintaining privacy and compliance with regulations like CCPA, GDPR, and HIPAA. This collaboration enables data managers and engineers to address the dual challenge of providing swift data access and ensuring the protection of sensitive information. Immuta enhances the capabilities of Starburst by offering Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), which refines traditional Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) with more granular specifications based on user attributes, and Purpose-Based Access Controls that tie data access to specific business purposes. These features allow organizations to implement detailed access policies that align with corporate and regulatory requirements without delaying data delivery. Immuta also simplifies the process of tagging sensitive data fields through automatic detection, making it easier to apply protective measures. By routing all data access through Immuta, Starburst ensures that users can efficiently query federated data across multiple sources while adhering to customized privacy and access policies tailored to their business roles.
