Bring Your Own Advanced Encryption to Microsoft Azure

If you’re 100% Microsoft Azure-based with stringent data security controls, or if you’re running in a hybrid-, multi-cloud environment with data distributed across your on-premises private cloud, multiple cloud providers, and on Microsoft Azure, you need an advanced data encryption solution. CipherTrust Transparent Encryption protects your files and databases stored anywhere, including Microsoft Azure, without any changes to applications, databases, infrastructure or business practices.

Accelerated PCI-DSS Compliance

CipherTrust Tokenization secures and anonymize sensitive assets for simplified PCI-DSS compliance. And it’s easy to add policy-based dynamic data masking to applications. The CipherTrust Tokenization is available in the Azure Marketplace.

Azure Encryption Key Management

Organizations that cannot bring their own encryption can still follow industry best practices by managing keys externally using the CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager, which leverages cloud provider Bring Your Own Key API’s to reduce both key management complexity and reduce operational costs. You can deploy CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager on premises or instantiate it in the Azure Marketplace.

Centralized, secure key management

The CipherTrust Manager centralizes key, policy and log management for CipherTrust Transparent Encryption, available as a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 or 3 appliance or in the Azure Marketplace.
