Aunalytics Selected for Inc. Magazine’s 5000 List of the Nation’s Fastest-growing Private Companies for Two Years in a Row
Leading Cloud Data Management & Analytics Company Demonstrates Continued Momentum With its Focus on Helping Mid-market Businesses Accelerate Their Digital Transformation
South Bend, IN (August 18, 2022) - Aunalytics, a leading data management and analytics company delivering Insights-as-a-Service for mid-market businesses, has been named by Inc. magazine as one of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies included in its annual Inc. 5000 list. This marks the second consecutive year that Aunalytics earned a spot on the prestigious ranking, representing a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent businesses. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” said Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”
The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have not only been successful, but have also demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, and the ongoing impact of Covid-19. Among the top 500, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 percent. Together, those companies added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three years.
Aunalytics offers a robust, cloud-native platform built to deliver enterprise data management, powerful analytics, and AI-driven answers. From the onset, Aunalytics has been dedicated to empowering enterprise and mid-sized businesses located in secondary and tertiary markets, with advanced data management and analytics tools. Typically in these markets, the technical talent needed to use, maintain, and achieve value from the solution is scarce. Aunalytics provides its technology as a managed service paired with the expert talent needed to achieve ROI.
The analytics portion of the platform represents Aunalytics’ unique ability to unify all the elements necessary to process data and deliver AI end-to-end, from cloud infrastructure to data acquisition, organization, and machine learning models – all managed and run by Aunalytics as a secure managed service. Aunalytics continues to gain traction in industries such as financial services, healthcare, and manufacturing where companies are challenged with undertaking the digital transformation required to succeed in the modern world.
“We’re thrilled to be selected for the Inc. 5000 two years in a row – this truly demonstrates the accelerated growth Aunalytics has experienced as a result of providing advanced talent and tools that are typically not affordable for mid-market businesses,” said Rich Carlton, President of Aunalytics. “Our goal from the very beginning has been to address the midsize business sector and we remain committed to serving the best interests of our customers in this category because it is so critical for both innovation and the economy.”

Failure to follow Data Privacy Compliance requirements can be costly. How can you prepare your business?
GDPR, CCPA and the newly coming CPRA (which goes into effect 1/1/2023) require intense data management, or the cost of non-compliance can rise to $1000 per record. These data privacy laws pertain broadly to personal information of consumers including:
- Account and login information
- GPS and other location data
- Social security numbers
- Health information
- Drivers license and passport information
- Genetic and biometric data
- Mail, email, and text message content
- Personal communications
- Financial account information
- Browsing history, search history, or online behavior
- Information about race, ethnicity, religion, union membership, sex life, or sexual orientation
CPRA requires businesses to inform consumers how long they will retain data (for each category of data) and the criteria used to determine that time period of what is “reasonably necessary.” Basically, you have to be prepared to justify the data collection, processing, and retention and tie it directly to a legitimate business purpose.
Now prohibited is “sharing” data (beyond buying and selling it), which is defined as: sharing, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic of other means, a consumer’s personal information by the business to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration, including transactions between a business and a third party for the benefit of a business in which no money is exchanged. Arguably, this covers a business working with a marketing firm and sharing data with the agency about leads or prospects to employ cross-content behavioral advertising in a campaign.
Companies now need to be able to inform the consumer what type of data they have about customers, what business purposes it is used for, and retention periods. This information allows them to meet the expanded consumer rights given by the CPRA, including deleting data, limiting types of use for certain types of data, correcting data errors across the organization in every location where it lives, automating and executing data retention policies, and to be ready for auditing. While it is an ethical ruleset that has now been put in place, with Data Privacy Compliance active, companies now have to consider possible non-compliance costs in addition to operational and opportunity costs as well.
As a result of these requirements, companies are now in need of a data management system with built-in data governance to stay in compliance. These data management platforms must be capable of identifying, on a data field-by-data-field basis, where the data originates, each and every change made to the data, and each downstream user of the data (databases, apps, analytics, queries, extracts, dashboards). Without automated data management and governance, it will be humanly impossible to manually find this information by the deadlines required. You need to be able to automatically replicate changes made to the data to all locations where the data resides throughout your organization to make consumer directed corrections and deletions within the time limits prescribed.
Cybersecurity Drives Insurance Crack Down
Cybersecurity Drives Insurance Crack Down: Be Prepared to Document Your Security Posture
A common question for cyber insurance brokers in the last few years has been “If I implement this cyber security control, will I get a discount on my insurance premium?” The answer has been typically “no.” But these days, the answer has changed to “no, you won’t get a premium discount. And if you don’t implement that security control, you might not even get insurance.”
