Security
Protect information, AI workloads, and access with integrated security controls. Teradata brings security closer to the data with native controls that classify, mask, and protect sensitive information at query time, regardless of who or what is accessing it.
Safeguard your environment with confidence
Integrated platform protection
Teradata provides layered security across identity, data, and network. Policies are consistently applied to users, applications, analytics workloads, and AI agents, with protection enforced directly at the data layer.
Identity protection
Ensure only authorized users, applications, and AI agents can access sensitive information through identity-driven controls aligned with a zero trust model.
- Global identity and dynamic ABAC
Enforce access policies based on identity, role, and attributes through Teradata's integration with Immuta. - AI-aware access control
Apply consistent policies across users, applications, analytics workloads, and AI agents. - Flexible authentication
Support federated identity, SSO, MFA, external identity providers, Kerberos, LDAP, and RBAC.
Data security
Protect sensitive information from classification through access and use.
- Classification and tagging
Apply sensitivity labels to drive protection and governance policies. - Dynamic masking and row-level security
Restrict access to sensitive information based on role and context at query time. - Column-level encryption
Protect sensitive values while enabling authorized access. - Encryption and key control
Secure information in transit and at rest with TLS 1.3 and customer-managed key options. - Privacy protection
Built-in Anonomatic capabilities help protect PII and reduce identity exposure while preserving data value for analytics and AI.
Network protection
Protect communications and operations with layered controls across network, infrastructure, and application boundaries.
- Perimeter and traffic controls
Use firewalls, network policies, access controls, filtering, and Private Link connectivity to limit exposure.
Integrated data security and privacy
Secure by design
Built on a secure, reliable foundation, Teradata’s platform complies with industry standards through a comprehensive, secure-by-design approach.
Secure development
Teradata follows a secure software development lifecycle that builds security and risk assessment into design, development, testing, and release, with formal change and configuration management.
Secure operations
Access follows job responsibilities and formal approval. Employees complete background checks, agreements, and training. Remote access uses FIPS 140-2 encryption and required multifactor authentication (MFA).
Secure measures
Teradata monitors continuously, analyzes security events in near real time with a security information and event monitoring (SIEM) system, and scans for vulnerabilities. Independent firms conduct external penetration tests. A defined incident response process investigates, contains, and restores.
