In order to ensure data governance at scale, Secoda can be used to tag personally identifiable information (PII) that resides in BigQuery. BigQuery, a serverless and fully managed enterprise data warehouse offered by Google Cloud, provides a secure and reliable environment for storing and analyzing data. With its support for all data types and ability to work across multiple clouds, BigQuery offers the flexibility and scalability required for managing large datasets. Additionally, BigQuery's built-in machine learning and business intelligence capabilities enable advanced analytics and insights. By leveraging Secoda's tagging capabilities, organizations can effectively manage and protect sensitive data within BigQuery, ensuring compliance with data governance policies.
BigQuery offers robust capabilities for handling personally identifiable information (PII), such as dynamic data masking, which enables administrators to define rules for obscuring sensitive data at query time. This approach allows varying access levels based on user roles and data types, with options like nullification, SHA256 hashing, and default values for different data types. These features are crucial for compliance with data privacy regulations and for creating secure data environments, enhancing BigQuery's already comprehensive access control and encryption functionalities​.
Secoda's integration with BigQuery allows data teams to streamline their workflows and enhance data governance. By leveraging custom workflows, users can easily tag personally identifiable information (PII) residing in BigQuery, saving time and reducing manual errors. The automation feature in Secoda consists of triggers and actions. Triggers enable users to schedule workflow activations, providing a structured framework for subsequent actions. Actions encompass various operations, such as filtering and updating metadata, allowing users to create detailed and tailored workflows to meet their team's specific requirements. Additionally, Secoda empowers users to perform bulk updates to metadata in BigQuery, further enhancing data management capabilities.
