– Traveling GDPR Clinic to Demonstrate How Integrated
Identity Protection, Encryption and Key Management Can Support
Compliance –
BOSTON, May 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Vaultive, an
innovator in cloud data security, today announced its participation
in Gemalto's GDPR Clinic Tour, a nine-city bus route through the
UK, to help educate businesses working toward compliance with the
EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Vaultive joins the
tour with Gemalto, the world leader in digital security, to
demonstrate how organizations can use the companies' integrated
solution to gain increased control over sensitive data in the
cloud. GDPR experts are also onboard to provide GDPR readiness
consultations.
"Cloud encryption, key management, and strong authentication are
essential elements of a sound GDPR compliance strategy," said
Jason Hart, VP and Chief Technology
Officer, Data Protection, Gemalto. "The combined data protection
capabilities of Gemalto and Vaultive reduce the risk of exposing
personally identifiable information and give GDPR data protection
officers a wide array of new authentication and cloud usage policy
controls."
The new international data security law goes into effect
May 25, 2018, and will supersede the
OECD Principles, the CoE Convention, the EU Data Directive, the
Charter of Lisbon and the Charter
of Fundamental Rights of the EU. While international governing
bodies work to bring tougher procedures and controls to protecting
sensitive data, the rapid growth of cloud security models can
complicate data privacy and sovereignty, and cloud-based
organizations can find themselves non-compliant with evolving data
residency and privacy laws.
Vaultive encrypts SaaS application data for the entire duration
of its lifecycle in the cloud while preserving SaaS user
functionality, and Gemalto's SafeNet KeySecure offers secure and
centralized key management with total customer control of their
keys. Integrating these two solutions ensures data and
protection rights across the EU no matter where data is
processed.
"Tomorrow marks a year to the day for the GDPR implementation
deadline, yet many IT leaders are still scrambling to educate
themselves on the requirements and the effect it will have on their
organizations," said Stu Vaeth, VP,
Corporate Development and Alliances, Vaultive. "The Gemalto
GDPR Clinic Tour is a great opportunity for organizations to
advance their knowledge of the regulation and the technical
approaches that are available to help mitigate compliance
risk."
The GDPR Clinic Tour started on May 23,
2017, in York as part of a nine-city tour through the UK
