The regulations on the management of sensitive data are pushing more and more companies to adopt advanced security solutions, able not only to secure sensitive data, as required by regulations such as the GDPR or the California CCPA, but also of automatically identify them on the various company systems : in fact, companies do not always have the data organized in a adequate, and also finding out where they are stored and how they are protected is a long and complicated job without the help of some software. One of the solutions capable of identifying and protecting information, regardless of where it is located, is the CipherTrust Data Security Platform from Thales .

CipherTrust Data Security Platform: automatic data classification

Finding out where sensitive data is saved is just one of the steps to comply with the regulations on their management. Another fundamental aspect is to catalog them according to their degree of confidentiality and identify the potential risks , to then take the necessary actions to secure them. The Thales platform integrates both functions, and also allows you to automatically correct any problems. This is thanks to a series of preconfigured templates and connectors with the different services, which allow you to automate these processes by speeding up their execution.

The CipherTrust Data Security Platform is able to automatically recognize health, financial and personal data and categorize them correctly, simplifying the operations necessary to ensure regulatory compliance thanks to detailed reports.

One panel for all operations

The CipherTrust Data Security Platform follows the current trend of offering a single dashboard through which to access all tools , making it easier to use and streamlining workflows since analysts won’t have to use separate tools to get the information they need. From this console it will be possible to configure syslog / SNMP policies and alerts which can then be integrated with existing workflows and SIEM , event management systems and security information.

The platform supports the main public clouds as well as private hypervisors, and allows you to easily move sensitive data to on-premise environments, so as to have greater guarantees on their control. The information that remains in the cloud will in any case be adequately protected from a BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) perspective through the CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager .
