The Perimeter Is Dead:
Findings from the 2026 State of Data Protection in Legal Report
Data Solution of the Year for Legal
Confidencial, a data-centric security solution, today announced it has been named the winner of the “Data Solution of the Year for Legal” award in the 2026 Data Breakthrough Awards. The program, conducted by Tech Breakthrough, is a premier recognition platform that rigorously evaluates the global big data and analytics markets.
Confidencial was selected for its patented technology that addresses the "visibility gap" in legal workflows - a vulnerability that occurs when sensitive client data leaves secure repositories to fuel modern AI applications.
Originally developed under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and incubated at SRI, Confidencial’s platform ensures that data protection is embedded within the file itself, regardless of where it is stored or processed.
