Data Security

CipherTrust Platform unifies data discovery, classification, and protection and provides unprecedented granular access controls, all with centralized key management. You can rely on Thales CipherTrust Data Security Platform to discover, protect and control your organization's sensitive data, wherever it resides.

Discover: Data Discovery & Classification

The first step in protecting sensitive data is finding the data wherever it is in the organization, classifying it as sensitive, and typing it (e.g. PII, financial, IP, HHI, customer-confidential, etc.) so you can apply the most appropriate data protection techniques. It is also important to monitor and assess data regularly to ensure new data is not overlooked and your organization does not fall out of compliance. CipherTrust Data Discovery and Classification efficiently identifies structured as well as unstructured sensitive data on-premises and in the cloud.

Protect Data-at-Rest
Protect

Once an organization knows where its sensitive data is, protective measures such as encryption or tokenization can be applied. For encryption and tokenization to successfully secure sensitive data, the cryptographic keys themselves must be secured, managed and controlled by the organization.

  2. CipherTrust Data Protection Gateway (DPG)
  3. CipherTrust Transparent Encryption (CTE)
  4. CipherTrust Security Intelligence
Control

Organizations need to control access to their data and centralize key management. Every data security regulation and mandate require organizations to be able to monitor, detect, control, and report on authorized and unauthorized access to data and encryption keys. The CipherTrust Data Security (CDSP) Platform allows administrators to create a strong separation of duties between privileged administrators and data owners as well as to enforce very granular, least-privileged-user access management policies. CDSP delivers robust enterprise key management via CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager across multiple cloud service providers (CSP) and hybrid cloud environments to centrally manage encryption keys and configure security policies so organizations can control and protect sensitive data in the cloud, on-premise and across hybrid environments.

Strong Authentication and Access Management
