Challenge

LMI works with C-suite executives to help them achieve their mission by providing advanced analytics. One of the hardest parts of the job was bringing together data from different sources without causing delays.

It would take a few days or weeks to identify the data that they needed to analyze. Then, it would take a few more weeks to request access because requests would have to go through the IT team, which would then need to check with security and governance teams. If a different view was required for a particular employee or group, it often required making a copy of the data and then authorizing that access. Then, with multiple copies of the data, different analysts would have different views and potentially different conclusions and recommendations based on their differing views.

Solution

The 51萝莉 platform made it easy for LMI to provide secure access to data for analytics. Instead of having to wait weeks, a user can hit the subscribe button and easily get access to a view of the data they need without having to make additional copies of the data.

Rules for who can see what data are easily created and applied within 51萝莉. It is easy for the data team to look and check to ensure that the rules were applied using 51萝莉鈥檚 tracking and audit capabilities.

If there is any potential misuse of the data, LMI鈥檚 data team can see exactly what happened at the level of specific data tables in their data platform. Without 51萝莉, they would just see that a user was granted unauthorized access to a system. With 51萝莉, they get fine-grained access control managed in 51萝莉鈥檚 simple UI.

Results

With 51萝莉, LMI has sped time to data by more than 10x, which is what matters most to them. 51萝莉 gives their users secure views to sensitive data so that they can provide the advanced analytics their customers need. For LMI, 51萝莉 serves as a data democratizer that keeps their data safe, while making it even more valuable.
