Data Encryption
Data encryption is critical for the distributed enterprise
Corporate databases, once buried deep within the security perimeter, are increasingly accessible to a growing number of users, customers and partners. As more data is stored within these frequently accessed databases, the risk of unauthorized access grows greater and organizations are turning data encryption to secure these assets. But while many data encryption solutions are available, choosing the right products to support an encryption deployment is critical to its success. For data encryption support solutions used by leading enterprises, consider the technology from nCipher.

nCipher key management software supports superior data encryption
nCipher is a leading provider of products for many of the world's most security-focused enterprises and offers software and hardware that help optimize and manage data encryption solutions. One aspect of data encryption that is to an effective deployment is key management. Cryptographic keys are used to encrypt and decrypt data their security is paramount and must be diligently protected in order to ensure the highest levels of security. But managing keys involves a large number of tasks that can easily overwhelm the security operations of a distributed enterprise. Keys must constantly be generated, distributed, stored, retrieved and archived on a 24x7 basis, in order to facilitate the performance of a wide number of applications. nCipher's keyAuthority provides a centralized and automated key management system that simplifies and streamlines these tasks. With keyAuthority, organizations can easily provide keys and digital certificates to hundreds of applications and thousands of end users, servers and networked devices, helping the organization to achieve greater security.
Innovative hardware for the encryption of critical data
nCipher also provides industry-leading hardware that enables more efficient data encryption. nCipher offers a variety of Hardware Security Modules designed to provide physical protection of cryptographic keys. These devices are validated for FIPS 140-2 level 2 and 3, are available in both dedicated and shareable versions and are provide a variety of performance options. nCipher also offers hardware for SSL acceleration, time stamping and document signing.
nCipher's cryptography and data security products also include solutions for Elliptic curve cryptography, digital signature software, enterprise PKI, key management server technology, and more.
