Bandwidth pricing is a major component of the cloud services model. And for a content-heavy service like a video or document store, egress costs can quickly spiral out of control. To mitigate this, it is important to put limits on the amount of data that can be downloaded in a given interval. However, bandwidth limiting for a multi-tenant SaaS product adds a few interesting challenges.

Data stewardship and protection of customer data is likely to become one of the largest challenges for businesses this decade, with a growing number of countries considering data privacy legislation. For example, in 2020, 30 states within the US considered data privacy bills; that number increased to 38 in 2021. This wave of legislation, kicked off by GDPR, started around 2016 when the world entered the Zettabyte era.

Nightfall’s vision is to power data protection in every app or service. Our native SaaS integrations for apps like Slack, GitHub, and Google Drive already protect organizations, ranging from small startups to the Fortune 100, against data leaks with our machine learning-powered detection engine. Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of the Nightfall Developer Platform, so you can build data discovery, classification, and protection using our powerful APIs.

Data privacy is top of mind for every organization, with individuals wanting reassurance that their data is secure at all times. With the ever increasing number of cloud applications on the market today, security teams are faced with the challenge of keeping track of compounding volumes of sensitive data that can flow internally, externally, and across systems.

The development roll up this month hints at some of the big improvements we have planned for the web application. Getting new users onto the platform doing the things they came to do quickly and easily is the central theme. LimaCharlie is working to make it easy and intuitive to create the scalable security solutions you need.
