Platform (Atlas)

Secure Cursor with Varonis Atlas

Varonis Atlas now secures Cursor, the AI-native coding tool, delivering visibility, control, and protection across the agentic development lifecycle.

Direct integration into the Cursor workflow provides real-time insight into agent activity, including intent, data sensitivity, access, and token usage. Runtime policies enable teams to block, modify, or alert on risky actions in real time, stopping unsafe behavior before it impacts sensitive data. 

Detailed session logging captures prompts, tool usage, and executed actions, giving security teams a clear view of what happened so they can investigate and respond to incidents quickly.

Visibility extends to the artifacts and configurations that shape Cursor behavior across runtime environments and repositories, like GitHub and Bitbucket, as well as malicious skills that attempt to manipulate agents, exfiltrate data, or introduce unsafe actions.

Platform (Data Security)

Configurable rescan behavior for classification policies

Customers can now choose how policy edits are applied. Changes may be applied only to new and modified files or trigger a full rescan of all files. This allows policies to be updated without unexpected performance impact and reduces unnecessary rescans. 
Platform (Data Security)

Updated classification terminology

Varonis now has standardized terminology across the web interface for better clarity. Classification records are now classification hits and classification rules are now classification policies.  
Platform (Data Security)

Prioritized folder rescanning

Customers can now trigger an on-demand scan and decide which folders get scanned first. This allows organizations to prioritize specific folders, accelerating validation of policy changes and providing updated classification results in areas of importance.  
Platform (Data Security)

Exclude groups from request-based access workflows

Varonis now allows admins to exclude certain groups from being managed through request-based workflows in the DAG API. This reduces operational overhead and prevents misconfiguration.  
Platform (Data Security)

Group permission updates in near real-time

Customers now experience group-based permission changes in near real-time, reducing delay and uncertainty when managing access groups.  
Platform (Data Security)

Localized timestamps for Data Access Governance requests

Data Access Governance timestamps are now shown in customers’ local time zones, making it easier to review request creation, activation, expiration, and scheduling times. 
Platform (Data Security)

Access request shortcut in Windows Explorer

Varonis now enables users to request access directly from Windows Explorer via a simple right-click action. Users don’t need to copy paths, open access ports manually, or contact IT for help, reducing friction for IT teams.  
Platform (Data Security)

Review and enforce automatic governance rules

Customers can now use the DAG API to gain full visibility into automatic rules configured on governed groups and turn those rules on and off on demand.  
Platform (Data Security)

Centralized MDDR escalation management

The MDDR dashboard in the Varonis Web Interface now includes a direct referral link to Varonis Community for escalation contact management, centralizing contact management. Customers benefit from one click access from the MDDR dashboard while reducing the risk of outdated or inconsistent escalation information. 
Platform (Data Security)

NFS support for Hitachi NAS

Varonis now supports NFS monitoring for Hitachi NAS data sources, enabling file and folder activity auditing, permissions and ownership-change tracking, and data classification and labeling.  
Platform (Data Security)

Clear Windows and Unix data source types

Data source types in the Varonis Web Interface have been renamed to Windows Server and Unix Server, clarifying the distinction from future Windows Desktop support.
