## Govern Access. Stay Compliant.

See how Commvault Data Access Governance is designed to replace standing privileges with just-in-time access, automated approvals, and centralized audit evidence for every data request.

- Simplify asset requests so users can find the right data and request access directly
- Automate access approvals with policy-driven workflows
- Avoid standing privilege with time-bound, least-privilege access and data masking
- Centralize audit visibility across sessions, queries, approvals, and credentials

## Frequently Asked Questions

What is Data Access Governance?

Data Access Governance is Commvault’s capability for managing guarded, policy-driven access to production and AI data. It combines self-service requests, centralized approval processes, dynamic data masking, and detailed audit logging to help reduce exposure without slowing innovation.

What is just-in-time access?

Just-in-time access issues time-bound credentials based on approval policies instead of persistent permissions, helping reduce the risk of overprivileged access while dynamically masking sensitive data based on user context.

How does Commvault help automate data access approvals?

Commvault routes access requests through a unified portal with policy-driven workflows. This enables just-in-time temporary access to be reviewed and granted without manual ticketing workflows. Approvals can also be automated based on policies for low-risk scenarios, so engineers aren’t blocked by manual provisioning.

Can Commvault show who accessed what data and when?

Yes. Commvault is designed to centrally log requests, access session, query, approval, and credential event, creating a reviewable audit trail that supports compliance reviews, investigations, and reporting.
