NextLabs announced the release of new additions to its Data Access Enforcer (DAE) product line, along with the certification of more applications for no-code, out-of-the-box integrations, now totaling over 100. This update brings the dynamic enforcement of NextLabs Zero Trust Data-Centric security policies to an expanded range of enterprise and cloud applications. DAE prevents wrongful disclosure and protects data through attribute-based access control (ABAC) policies that are dynamically enforced at runtime, ensuring proper security controls are applied seamlessly and transparently regardless of the method of access.
New additions to the DAE product line include:
- DAE for SAP Manufacturing Execution
- DAE for SAP Analytics Cloud
- DAE for SAP Solution Manager
- DAE for Atlassian Confluence
- DAE for Atlassian Jira
- DAE for Atlassian Bitbucket
- DAE for Atlassian Bamboo
DAE functionality has also now been certified to work out-of-the-box with the following database and reporting tools:
- SAP Crystal Reports
- SAP HANA Cockpit
- Toad
- DBeaver
- Tableau

DAE addresses the challenge of protecting data without breaking existing integrations and configurations with the applications by evaluating and enforcing policies at the data access layer. Key functionalities in DAE include:
- Real-time enforcement of attribute-based access policies
- Field-level data masking
- Record-level data segregation and filtering
- Granular enforcement of DML actions
- Centrally managed policies
- Centralized monitoring and auditing
- Out-of-the-box integrations with almost any enterprise application
When combined with DAE’s centrally managed policies that determine who, what, when, where, and how, to mask field(s) and filter record(s) based on attributes in real-time, organizations can prevent unauthorized access, protect data, and address compliance requirements all with a single solution. DAE’s container-based architecture and out–of–the–box (OOTB) support for cloud & enterprise applications and databases enable it to be implemented with minimal impact to existing systems and business operations, transparent to the end user, hence providing fast time to value.
Advantages of NextLabs DAE include:
- Support for field-level dynamic data masking and encryption, record-level filtering and segregation, and attribute-based access control of database operations all within a single product.
- Centrally managed attribute-based access control (ABAC) policies allow for data-centric security policies to be consistently applied across the entire enterprise.
- No-code integrations with business applications means rapid deployments and fast time to value (TTV).
- Built on Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) and powered by an industry-leading dynamic authorization Policy Engine that enforces policies in real-time without custom code
- Significantly lower cost of management and rapid time-to-value, offering enterprises ability to keep up with the rapidly evolving data security needs.
- Policy enforcement independent of App, UI, API, microservice, batch job, ad-hoc query, and report.
- Simplify compliance management by tracking and storing data access activity across applications in a central audit server, providing analytics for user behavior and access patterns via dashboards, reports, and automated monitoring facilities.
“Our goal is to allow our customers to enforce Zero Trust Data Security policies out of the box on any enterprise application and any data store,” said Keng Lim, CEO and Founder of NextLabs. “With the release of these new DAE products and integrations, we move closer to our mission of providing zero-code data protection anywhere and everywhere, by providing our customers with a Zero Trust Data-Centric Security solution with the best user experience and the flexible deployment options to fit their enterprise environment.”
