Inside-Out Data Security for the Next Era of Cyber Resilience
With data volumes expanding exponentially and regulatory scrutiny intensifying, organizations need a real-time approach to managing unstructured data.
- Reduce attack surface
- Uncover exposure risks
- Strengthen compliance posture
- Cut cloud on on-prem storage costs
- Accelerate AI programs
The fastest-growing trend in information security isn't perimeter defense, it's reducing the size of the target.

A detailed view of your unstructured data - in 24 hours.
A comprehensive and timely view of the current state of your unstructured data is just a scan away. Quickly identify ROT, find PII, and/or the location of confidential or critical intellectual property in conjunction with risk or governance assessments. See what data was last modified or accessed. Lightning IQ reports include:
- Dark Data: Files that haven’t been opened in 5/ 10/ 15 years.
- Sensitive Data: Location of records with PII, IP or other sensitive data.
- Storage Redundancies: Size and amount of ROT, duplicates and ownerless data.
Enterprise data risk has moved inside. Lightning IQ reveals what you store, where it sits, and what needs to go.

Built for the CISO and Data Officer Agenda
Corporations now manage between 2 to 50+ petabytes of storage. Traditional security has focused on keeping attackers out. But in 2025, the most effective risk strategy begins from within. Designed for CISOs, Data, Privacy and Legal Officers, Lightning IQ enables organizations to scan, classify, reduce, and control petabytes of data with precision and speed.
“Lightning IQ exists to answer one simple question: what’s really in your data?"
Daniel Pidutti, CEO, One Discovery

Provide Real Time Reports to the C-Suite with Weekly Monitoring Scans
Scan your client's entire global storage network weekly to provide near real-time monitoring of newly created PII and sensitive data. C-Suite reports include:
- ROT and/or "dark data" reports for the CIO.
- Storage efficiency reports for the CTO.
- Compliance reports - including locations of PII - for the Chief Privacy Officer.
- Sensitive Data Maps for the Chief Risk or Security Officer.
- Risk and Remediation Reports for the Chief Legal Officer.

Bring Data Quality to AI
AI initiatives consume massive amounts of data - and the higher quality the data, the better the results. With billions of dollars being invested in AI projects data quality is quickly becoming a real challenge. Armed with Lightning you can rapidly transform petabytes of unstructured data into high-quality AI data sets for your mission critical AI investments.
Data quality will determine the success of your AI initiatives. Process, refine and monitor your data sets with Lightning IQ.
