Data sources for Protect

Protect supports the following data sources:

Protect periodically synchronizes with an aggregation of all data protection standards and data access rules. These standards and rules form a data source-agnostic representation containing all databases, schemas, tables, and columns, as well as their protections and accesses. The synchronization process then triggers the Edge capabilities, such as Collibra Protect for Snowflake. These Edge capabilities are responsible for translating the representation to actions toward the data source provider using their technology. This process might involve JDBC and REST calls to perform low-level operations to guarantee that the protections and accesses are applied.
