Capital One Software, the enterprise B2B software business of Capital One, has announced new innovations for Capital One Databolt designed to bridge the gap between sensitive unstructured data and secure AI adoption. The upcoming capabilities will help enterprises protect and leverage previously underutilized data across their environments.
Unstructured data, such as documents and multimedia files, accounts for 70% to 90% of organizational data according to Gartner, yet remains difficult to protect at scale without destroying the semantic context required by AI models. Traditional security tools often fall short in scanning or securing this data while preserving its usability for analytics and AI.
“Our goal is to unlock the value of sensitive data by making security seamless across the data lifecycle,” said Prashant Prahlad, SVP and Head of Product, Capital One Software. “With these new innovations, Databolt will help organizations move past the security bottlenecks that act as a barrier to innovation. We are intent on establishing secure-by-default as the standard, giving enterprises the confidence to forge ahead with their AI initiatives without compromising their sensitive data.”
Capital One Databolt will inspect unstructured data formats through automated workflows to identify personally identifiable information (PII). By applying data protection methods like tokenization that preserve semantic structure, the platform transforms previously dark data into safe, usable assets for analytics and AI workflows.
Capital One Software continues to build Databolt into a comprehensive data security platform that protects sensitive data at rest, in motion, and in use. New and upcoming features include:
For regulated businesses with strict data guidelines, Databolt now offers a 100% self-hosted deployment option, providing full internal control over data and processing.
Streamlined information architecture, granular access controls, and clear separation of responsibilities simplify management of complex access controls at enterprise scale.
A centralized token analytics dashboard delivers high-level visibility into system health, throughput, and error rates for both technical and non-technical users.
The new Domains capability allows logical segmentation of configurations and access management through clear isolation boundaries within a single tenant, enabling teams to mirror business units or SDLC environments while enforcing granular role-based access control (RBAC).
Upcoming enhancements will scale the collection of rich, contextual metadata to accelerate integration across complex data stacks.
“Cync Software is committed to strengthening data security in an era where breaches are rising across the industry,” said Prasad Alapati, CEO and President, Cync Software. “With Databolt, we are reinforcing a data-centric security approach by embedding security directly into our data layer, reducing risk exposure across our lending and financial platforms. We’re able to protect our environment and enable secure data use without disrupting critical business operations.”
Capital One Software’s Databolt innovations address the growing complexity of enterprise data security by making protection seamless and enabling organizations to confidently unlock the value of unstructured data for AI initiatives.
