Thales CipherTrust Encryption enterprise encryption software delivers data-at-rest encryption with centralized key management, privileged user access control and detailed data access audit logging. This protects data wherever it resides, on-premises, across multiple clouds and within big data, and container environments. The encryption solution works in conjunction with the FIPS 140-2 up to Level 3 validated Data Security Manager, which centralizes encryption key and policy management for the CipherTrust. The joint solution is based on a Hardware Security Module (HSM) that serves as the fireproof vaulting location for both the master key files and the master and native Vault administrator passwords. Using the CipherTrust, organizations are able to provide a highly secured, enterprise level master key files and master user password management mechanism with the same amount of simplicity as defining a basic set of firewall policies.
