Vaultize Launches Endpoint Encryption

Continuing the focus on protection of unstructured data – file sharing and endpoint backup vendor Vaultize (Anoosmar Technologies Private Limited private-held company) launched endpoint encryption – helping businesses secure their sensitive data on endpoints to comply
with regulations, maintain privacy and protect IP.

With
this new feature, enterprises will be able to enforce encryption of important
files on endpoints to protect against data leakage in case of lost or stolen
devices.

Vaultize’s endpoint encryption works in-place and is
transparent to the users and applications that use the files. Vaultize’s
current offering brings together a number of features, that businesses otherwise
have to acquire separately from multiple vendors, including file sync and
sharing, endpoint backup, endpoint encryption and Google Apps backup – all managed
from a single administrative console.

"On-disk encryption fits naturally
with file sharing and laptop backup. A well designed and fully-integrated
solution not only reduces the overheads of managing many different solutions
from multiple vendors, but also brings better protection and control of
unstructured data within the organization," said Anand Kekre, CEO and co-founder of Vaultize, while speaking at ICAI International Conference on the
topic of cloud computing.

Depending on which deployment option customer adopts, enterprise-wide endpoint
encryption can be controlled through a centralized administration console from
Vaultize public cloud (hosted in Rackspace), private cloud (hosted on-premise
or with any cloud provider of customer’s choice) or ‘Cloud-in-a-box’ appliance.

Data security has been the primary
inhibitor preventing enterprises from adopting cloud solutions. At-source
encryption together with de-duplication from Vaultize helps them eliminate
concerns about securing file sharing and endpoint backup data. Patent-pending technology secures data by encrypting it even before it leaves
endpoints for backup or sharing – completely protected while in-transit as well
as while stored in the cloud.

Last month, Vaultize also unveiled Data Privacy
Option (DPO) for enterprises – helping them comply with various data privacy,
data residency (sometimes known as data sovereignty) and data protection
regulations. DPO is a concept through which Vaultize lets its
enterprise customers retain the control over encryption keys.
