Singapore – Cohesity, an AI-powered data security firm, has recently announced the latest enhancement to its AI-powered search assistant Cohesity Gaia which was introduced earlier this year.
In this initiative, the firm launched a patent-pending visual data exploration capability to Cohesity Gaia, providing customers with a visual categorization of the themes across documents and files within a data set. This visual data explorer offers new context to the data and suggests queries that help users gain insights faster.
With the latest update, Gaia automatically provides a visual representation of the data, sorted by themes, giving users a clear starting point. The new visual explorer further leverages advanced AI techniques with natural language processing called topic modelling, to instantly identify hidden thematic structures across documents and files.
Said comprehensive insight and context into the nature of the data brings a framework for better understanding, empowering users to ask more informed and targeted questions as they search.
Furthermore, the data explorer streamlines this process, allowing users to click through each theme, ask conversational questions, and interact with intelligent, context-aware prompts to find the most relevant information quickly.
This approach complements Cohesity’s responsible AI commitment, with Gaia providing customers insight into their data while also keeping it secure and compliant with regulatory requirements.
Chirag Mehta, principal cybersecurity analyst at Constellation Research, said, “By addressing the challenge of managing and extracting insights from unstructured data across disparate systems, Cohesity Gaia and its new visual data explorer have the potential to revolutionise data accessibility for enterprises.”
“This innovation not only could enhance data security and compliance but could also empower business users of enterprise customers with deeper, more contextual insights, significantly benefiting the decision-making process and operational efficiency,” Mehta further remarked.
Craig Martell, CTO at Cohesity, also remarked, “We developed Cohesity Gaia because we believe that companies should be able to unlock valuable insights from the data they’re spending so much time and so many resources to protect.”
“It should be easy for business users to ask a question of their data and get an accurate, useful result, even if the data resides in disparate locations and different systems or how far back in history it goes. That is the promise of what Cohesity Gaia will deliver,” added Martell.
