Data compliance and security are more important than ever. Especially for sensitive data in non-production environments. But ensuring compliance and security is easier said than done.
Compliance requires satisfying data privacy regulations. Yet those regulations evolve, and new regulations emerge. Security requires securing data copies in every non-production environment. Yet multiple non-production environments exist for every production environment. And to top it off, what if ensuring data compliance and security in non-production comes at the cost of development speed or software quality?
We’ve heard concerns like this from countless enterprises for years. But the research data around those concerns didn’t exist. Until now.

- Does your organization allow data compliance exceptions in non-production?
The results are unique data and insights that you can’t find anywhere else.
Surprising Insights Revealed in Non-Production Environments
The results of the survey — detailed in this report — surprised us.
54% of organizations have already experienced a data breach or theft involving sensitive data in non-production environments. This could be the result of 86% allowing some data compliance exceptions for non-production. And this is all happening even though 91% are concerned about the expanded exposure footprint in non-production.
To top it off, there are also unique concerns about data privacy in AI environments. 68% perceive a lack of solutions to tackle data privacy in AI environments.
