Advanced data protection for AWS S3 with Vormetric Transparent Encryption (VTE) - Solution Brief

Amazon Web Services (AWS) Simple Storage Service (S3), one of the leading cloud storage solutions, is used by companies all over the world to power their IT operations for a variety of usecases. AWS S3 buckets have become one of the most commonly used cloud storage repositories for everything from server logs to customer data. However, poorly configured S3 buckets have been the cause of a large number of data breaches. AWS does provide a range of security services and features that its customers can use to secure their assets, but ultimately the cloud service provider places responsibility for protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data in the cloud, and for meeting specific business requirements for information protection, in the hands of its customers.
