SaaS Providers
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) often saves time and money and offers rapid response to dynamic business demands. But SaaS users require comprehensive security, often based on compliance mandates, for sensitive data stored in SaaS clouds. Thales enterprise data security solutions enable SaaS providers to fulfill customer requirements with data security that doesn't sacrifice business agility.

Cloud Security Responsibilities
If you hold anyone's sensitive data, you're partially responsible for it. You face compliance mandates for data protection such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR and state data breach notification laws.
Your Customers Or Prospects Have The Questions
You're likely to be handed the Cloud Security Alliance Consensus Assessment Initiative Questionnaire, or CAIQ, which includes queries such as:
- Do you have platform and data appropriate encryption that uses open/validated formats and standard algorithms?
- Are your encryption keys maintained by the cloud consumer or a trusted key management provider?
- Do you support secure deletion (e.g., degaussing/cryptographic wiping) of archived and backed-up data as determined by the tenant?
