Securing IBM Storage FlashSystems

Enterprise Key Management with Thales CipherTrust Manager

In the era of Big Data, organizations collect more data than ever before. Often, organizations store data because of regulatory concerns or because they hope to mine it in a way that is useful to business operations. To complicate the matter, as data breaches become more common, customers and regulators demand that this data stay secure at all times. Organizations build large-scale, complex storage deployments (in many cases, a combination of onpremises, virtualized, and remote data centers) to meet their needs, but the complexity can make adequate security difficult. Who should access the data? How do you protect against security breaches? How do you manage the encryption and decryption of data on an ongoing basis? Thales and IBM offer a solution to address these challenges.
