Secure what actually matters.
Varonis focuses on visibility. Netwrix delivers real control.
With Netwrix, you get end-to-end protection across data, identity, and endpoints—so you can prevent threats, not just monitor them.
Data security that doesn’t miss a step
Data Discovery & Access
Varonis is blind to the location of your data.
Netwrix automatically discovers where your data exists, eliminating blind spots.
Attack Surface Visibility
Varonis has limited visibility across endpoint and identity risks.
Netwrix secures the broader attack surface — data, identity, and endpoints.
Preventative Technologies
Varonis watches. Varonis alerts after the fact.
Netwrix blocks. Netwrix stops threats in real time — blocking unauthorized access, suspicious changes, and data exfiltration before damage is done.
Data Loss Prevention
Varonis promotes its DLP capabilities but lacks the ability to prevent data exfiltration.
Netwrix’s leading Endpoint DLP prevents data exfiltration across dozens of egress points (USB, web apps, printers, etc.) on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Active Directory Security
Varonis audits. Varonis Active Directory and Entra ID capabilities are largely limited to auditing, reporting and alerting.
Netwrix hardens. Netwrix goes further—detecting, blocking, and remediating risky changes in AD and Entra ID to stop attackers before they escalate privileges or exfiltrate data.
See more. Stop more. Spend less.
Varonis shows you problems. Netwrix helps you fix them — with real enforcement, broader coverage, and pricing that makes sense.
Take control of access and reduce risk
Remove unnecessary access. Spot weak links early. Stop threats before they spread.
Netwrix shifts control to data owners—so IT stops playing gatekeeper and starts saving serious time.
Stay lean with least privilege. Automate access reviews to keep permissions clean, current, and locked down.
Detect, investigate, and respond faster
Detect advanced complex attacks, including insider threats, in their early stages and automate your incident response to shut down identity and data threats immediately.
Empower your security teams with visibility into all related security events, enabling effective investigation, incident reporting, and targeted recovery efforts.
Improve your data security posture by understanding how incidents start and unfold.
Protect sensitive data across endpoints
Ensure endpoint data loss prevention across all your endpoints and all operating systems. Netwrix's real-time DLP solution actively monitors and safeguards your sensitive data, preventing breaches, unauthorized sharing and malicious exfiltration to achieve regulatory compliance.
Stay protected offline. Netwrix enables continuous monitoring and data protection even when your devices are in transit or in areas with limited connectivity.
Prevent unauthorized access and data leaks by ensuring sensitive data is only accessed, copied, or transferred with explicit authorization from an administrator.
Uncover risks and reduce your attack surface
Discover your blind spots by scanning up to tens of thousands of endpoints to uncover hidden risks—like standing admin accounts and weak configurations attackers rely on.
Remove unnecessary administrative accounts from all endpoints in a single click, ensuring just-in-time access which reduces the risk of malware installs and unauthorized system changes.
Assess your attack surface with dashboards tailored to IT professionals and executives and gain full visibility into privileged activity across your environment.
