SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Micro Focus
(LSE: MCRO; NYSE: MFGP) today announced the introduction and
availability of SecureData Sentry, an expansion of its Voltage
SecureData portfolio. SecureData Sentry accelerates time to value
for Hybrid IT data security and provides transparent deployment to
protect data in applications across the enterprise. Privacy
compliance can now be seamlessly enabled end-to-end for commercial
or proprietary applications that are mission-critical to the
business, including the migration to cloud workloads.
As organizations embrace the need for a digital transformation
and deploy more capabilities, the demand for efficiently handling
data across traditional IT, hybrid IT and cloud solutions becomes
critical. The explosion of application deployment results in
critical data being distributed across multiple environments,
including on-premises and cloud – making it difficult to secure.
The significant rise of data-centric workloads in the cloud demands
a secure, efficient, non-disruptive approach to compliance.
"The rapid adoption of cloud applications creates new risks, as
data is constantly flowing to and from on-premises systems and
cloud services," said John Delk,
general manager of the Security Products Group at Micro Focus.
"Strict privacy regulations such as GDPR, PCI DSS, and HIPAA, along
with limited trust in hosted environments, could expose valuable
data, anywhere it may exist. SecureData Sentry simplifies and
accelerates Voltage data-centric security deployment in cloud,
commercial, and in-house applications, without critical application
changes or integration required – helping reduce the risk of
deploying hybrid IT solutions."
Sentry simplifies data protection for a wide range of
applications without modification or integration required. In
addition, Format-Preserving Hash, the newest innovation in Voltage
data protection methods, provides non-reversible de-identification,
supporting use cases which call for data anonymization.
Voltage SecureData Sentry:
- Promotes a non-disruptive, transparent approach to privacy
compliance and the secure use of data, that maintains centralized
enterprise control over encryption keys and data in cloud
services.
- Brokers data privacy to enable new value creation and policy
compliance on protected data. It transparently protects data fields
and files flowing to or from the cloud, and in and out of
applications and databases.
- Enables interoperability of encrypted data between multiple
SaaS applications, secure outsourcing, and similar use cases,
independent of company size or geography.
- Maintains consistent data protection with on-premises
applications, as cloud workloads are increasingly deployed into
untrusted environments.
Micro Focus Data Security solutions enable advanced
format-preserving encryption, secure stateless tokenization,
stateless key management—and now, format-preserving hash (FPH)—to
protect sensitive data across enterprise applications. Voltage FPH
offers one-way transformation with the strength and use case
versatility of Voltage Format-Preserving Encryption (FPE), working
with existing database schemas and applications without change and
without disabling the use of analytics. These technologies offer
deployment flexibility across hybrid IT or cloud, payment
ecosystems, mission-critical systems, storage, Big Data/IoT
platforms, and a similar wide range of use cases.
More Information
Voltage SecureData Sentry is immediately available and will be part
of in-booth demonstrations at the upcoming Teradata Universe
EMEA in London, April 22-25, 2018. Micro Focus is a Sponsor at
the conference and can be found at the ICC Capital Hall @ ExCeL
London in the Expo at stand 13.
