SafeNet’s encryption and key management solutions further enable AWS customers to move their most sensitive data and applications into the cloud while maintaining high levels of data protection. Combining the flexibility of the AWS cloud and strength of SafeNet’s encryption offerings creates a convenient solution for customers to optimise the level of security required for even the most critical workloads.
“Security is top of mind for organisations migrating sensitive data to the cloud,” said Wendy Nather, research director, Enterprise Security Practice, 451 Research. “Part of the problem is orchestrating security policies and key management across different environments. However, as companies like SafeNet make their offerings available both on premise and for cloud platforms such as AWS, enterprises can feel more confident that they are creating the same level of security across the board.”
SafeNet’s cloud-based encryption and key management solutions are now available on the AWS Marketplace and include the following:
· Encryption - ProtectV is a high-availability encryption solution with pre-boot authentication for protecting entire virtual machine instances and storage volumes.
· Key Management - Virtual KeySecure is a hardened virtual security appliance that manages and securely stores the encryption keys for ProtectV.
“We are excited to work with SafeNet to make ProtectV and Virtual KeySecure available to customers in the AWS Marketplace,” said Terry Wise, Director, Worldwide Partner Ecosystem, AWS. “The combination of SafeNet’s enterprise encryption and key management, along with AWS’ highly scalable, secure and flexible platform, is a compelling offering for customers deploying sensitive workloads in AWS. Making these solutions available on the AWS Marketplace provides customers with a simple, trusted, and secure way to quickly leverage SafeNet security offerings on demand.”
“SafeNet ProtectV is a complete, well-designed solution that runs in AWS environments,” said Marcus Fritsche, chief technology officer, Informa Group IT. “ProtectV gives us a robust, well-defined process for protecting data so we can effectively retain the control we need over our sensitive information, harnessing the business benefits of AWS cloud offerings securely.”
