A new press release reports, “TigerGraph, creator of the world’s first and only native parallel graph database platform for enterprise applications, today announced the addition of role- and view-based security to its Native Parallel Graph (NPG) platform. The new feature delivers enhanced security, enabling enterprises to create and administer access to subgraphs on a single cluster for controlled data access. Enterprises continue to adopt graph analytics for real-time business insight into their colossal amounts of data. However organizations — especially those operating with a high level of compliance — need control over which individuals and business units can access different parts of this data.”

The release goes on, “TigerGraph’s security feature makes it simple for departments to define access to specific areas of a data set. This is achieved through the creation of subgraphs representing a subset of the vertices and edges in a graph. Each subgraph has its own administrator, can overlap with other subgraphs as needed, and can be treated in the same way as one, standalone physical graph database. Benefits include less effort and cost for administrators, who are able to support controlled data access across departments — all with only one physical cluster system to manage. The security feature also helps organizations to speed up research and development efforts as business units can administer data access within their domain, via role-based access control, as well as gain value from real-time analytics delivered by TigerGraph.”
