Anonos Named in 2023 Gartner® Market Guide for AI TRiSM

Anonos recognized as a Representative Privacy Vendor in the AI TRiSM Market for its Data Embassy software with Variant Twins and synthetic data capabilities

Anonos, a global innovator in data privacy, security and enablement, has been recognized in the 2023 Gartner “Market Guide for Artificial Intelligence (AI) Trust, Risk and Security Management (TRiSM).” The company is listed as a Representative Privacy Vendor in the AI TRiSM market for the Variant Twins and synthetic data capabilities of its Data Embassy software. Anonos’ Variant Twins technology addresses privacy risks while enabling AI requirements for flexibility, modularity and use-case-specific processing.

Organizations are embracing AI for the efficiencies it creates, from the ability to deliver personalized customer experiences to the role it plays in accelerating the analysis of large volumes of data for insights to support strategic decision-making. This Gartner Market Guide indicates that “by 2026, organizations that operationalize AI transparency, trust and security will see their AI models achieve a 50% improvement in terms of adoption, business goals and user acceptance.”

But “AI projects that appear feasible often falter at the first step when access to data — especially personal data — is prohibited or discouraged in either training and/or production because of privacy risk and potential compliance concerns,” according to this Market Guide. In fact, Gartner’s 2021 AI in Organizations Survey revealed that “two in five organizations had an AI privacy breach or security incident, and the broadening legislative landscape seeks to ensure such breaches are minimized,” the Market Guide notes. Indeed, “regulatory authorities are starting to publish guidance when personal data is used for AI, but they also point out the need to minimize identifiable data.”

Anonos’ Data Embassy uses a combination of state-of-the-art privacy-enhancing computation (PEC) techniques to transform source data into Variant Twins, new assets with built-in controls that limit the amount of identifying data to only what is required for each specific use case but with the same analytical value as the original data. The level of data protection is centrally customized and controlled, with collaboration among legal/privacy teams and data users, and it can be adjusted according to project requirements and applicable regulations, so Variant Twins can safely travel across departments or international borders. Data Embassy also can be used to generate privacy-preserving synthetic data, which is ideal to train AI and machine learning models.

Anonos was previously named by Gartner as a Cool Vendor in Privacy Management and recognized for Data Security as a Service in the 2022 “Gartner Hype Cycle™ for Data Security.” Statice GmbH, which Anonos acquired in Q4 2022, was named in the Gartner 2022 “Emerging Tech: Top Use Cases for Tabular Synthetic Data” and recognized in two 2022 Gartner Hype Cycle reports: Artificial Intelligence and Data Science and Machine Learning (ML).

“We’re excited to appear in additional Gartner market research and guidance, and we believe we are recognized for our full-spectrum accuracy and utility preserving data protection capabilities that include synthetic data for machine learning and AI model development, together with PEC techniques, like Statutory Pseudonymization, including controlled relinking, for data privacy and security in production,” said Mark Little, Chief Data Strategist for Anonos. “AI adoption is only accelerating in enterprise digital transformation efforts, and we provide state-of-the-art technical controls that significantly reduce reidentification risks across AI and other common use cases for creating more value with data assets.”

This Market Guide covers technologies specifically tailored to address privacy risk in AI usage. The Market Guide does not cover vendors that offer similar PETs in breadth but do not focus on AI use cases or the specialized requirements of AI TRiSM.
