Server 2012 Feature: Dynamic Access Control

At last month's CITPG meeting there was a presentation on the Dynamic Access Control feature of Server 2012 and its Microsoft first major push with a GUI as it were in the data governance space.  It's definitely worth a look if your business or client has strict regulatory compliance needs.

Dynamic Access Control: Scenario Overview: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831717.aspx

If you have not had the privilege of working with Varonis software, this Server 2012 feature will be a direct competitor and without the big ticket licensing and maintenance cost of DatAdvantage.

The scenario overview above is dated 2/2012, but I can't help chuckling a little when I read about the recent VRNS IPO announcement: http://www.forbes.com/sites/eliseackerman/2013/10/23/israeli-software-maker-varonis-systems-files-for-ipo/
