Leading, High Performance Data Security Solution Supports SAP Environments
SAN JOSE, Calif. – June 21, 2011 – Vormetric, Inc., the leader in enterprise systems encryption and key management, today announced Vormetric Data Security for SAP, a comprehensive solution that protects data in SAP environments with transparent, high‐performance encryption. SAP modules typically contain sensitive data that is under the jurisdiction of internal governance mandates or external regulations, and demand advanced protection from insider abuse and increasing external breaches. Vormetric Data Security for SAP provides strong encryption for complex environments without the need to modify application modules or underlying systems.
Vormetric provides strong data security while maintaining data availability for the crown jewels of corporate information ‐‐ human resources, finance, and supply chain data. Enterprises can benefit from a fully tested solution that has been deployed by Fortune 100 companies to secure data across complex SAP implementations. Vormetric’s transparent solution requires no changes to SAP and protects information both inside and outside of databases without hindering performance. The solution is unique in its ability to protect both structured and unstructured data – including SAP reports, archives and database extracts.

This solution also provides centralized, secure key management and strong separation of duties. Vormetric supports all leading databases, including IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Informix, and others.

“Typical SAP implementations are large, complex, and involve both structured data from databases and unstructured data such as reports, log files, database extracts and archives.
