Streamlined Tokenization

Tokenize sensitive data, vaulted or vaultless

CipherTrust Tokenization

CipherTrust Tokenization dramatically reduces the cost and effort required to comply with security policies and regulatory mandates like PCI DSS while also making it simple to protect other sensitive data including personally identifiable information (PII). While there are no tokenization standards in the industry, most tokenization solutions fall into one of two architectures: vaultless- or vaulted tokenization Both secure and anonymize sensitive assets. Tokenization software can reside in the data center, big data environments or the cloud.

CipherTrust Tokenization

If you are seeking a tokenization solutions, consider:

  • CipherTrust Vaultless Tokenization with Dynamic Data Masking or
  • CipherTrust Vaulted Tokenization
  • Both offerings are easy to use, cloud friendly, and highly secure.

Efficiently Reduce PCI DSS Compliance Scope

Tokenization can remove card holder data from PCI DSS scope with minimal cost and effort, enabling organizations to save on costs associated with compliance with the industry standard.

Conveniently Protect Personally Identifiable Information

Modern IT architectures require both use and protection of personally identifiable information (PII). With CipherTrust tokenization, PII protection is gained without encryption key management required by the software developer.

Foster Innovation Without Introducing Risk

Tokenize data and maintain control and compliance when moving data to the cloud or big data environments. Cloud providers have no access to token vaults or any of the keys associated with tokenization root of trust.

Architect for Your Requirements: Vaultless or Vaulted, and Cloud-Friendly

Both solutions leverage CipherTrust Manager as a secure encryption key source. All-software, cloud friendly, is readily available, including with FIPS 140-2 Level 3 Root of Trust.

Tokenization Choices

Vaultless Tokenization with Dynamic Data Masking offers format-preserving or random tokenization to protect sensitive data. A RESTful API in combination with centralized management and services enables tokenization with a single line of code per field. The service is provided by dedicated, distributed-cluster-capable CipherTrust Tokenization Servers, delivering full separation of duties. Tokenization management with convenient configuration workflows occurs in a graphical user interface. Simplicity results from the ability, with a few as just one line of code inserted into applications, to tokenize or detokenize with Dynamic Data Masking.

  • Dynamic data masking is provided through administrators establishing policies to return an entire field tokenized or dynamically mask parts of a field based on user or group, integrated with LDAP or AD. For example, a security team could establish policies so that a user with customer service representative credentials would only receive a credit card number with the last four digits visible, while a customer service supervisor could access the full credit card number in the clear. Looking for static data masking? Tokenization offers static data masking, but, for the broad range of static data masking use cases, consider CipherTrust Batch Data Transformation.
  • Multi-tenancy is provided with Tokenization groups, which ensure that data tokenized by one group cannot be detokenized by another and are centrally managed.
  • Centralized Tokenization Templates. At the core of the programming simplicity of Vormetric Tokenization is the tokenization template.
Vaultess Tokenization

 

Vaulted tokenization CipherTrust Vaulted Tokenization offers non-disruptive format-preserving tokenization with a wide range of existing formats and the ability to define custom tokenization formats. Data tokenization can be applied directly on application servers on which the software is installed, or API requests from application to web servers on which tokenization software is installed can be utilized for tokenization. A full range of predefined tokenization formats are provided with the distribution and customers can create additional formats.
