(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Microsoft Azure Customers Can Now Maintain Compliance and Control of Sensitive
Data with SafeNet ProtectV
Amsterdam, Sept 16, 2015 - Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653 GTO), the world leader
in digital security, today announced the availability of its SafeNet ProtectV
solution on the Azure Marketplace, the online store that provides customers with
choice, flexibility, and access to highly optimized and integrated applications
and services ready to deploy in Microsoft Azure. Gemalto's SafeNet cloud-based
encryption solution allows Azure customers to encrypt and protect their most
sensitive data and applications in the cloud while maintaining compliance
requirements and achieving high levels of data protection.
According to Gartner, the market for cloud system infrastructure services (IaaS)
worldwide is expected to grow to $42.7 billion by 2019(1). Businesses are
increasingly turning to elastic cloud services like Azure to run business-
critical applications, but security and compliance remain top concerns SafeNet
ProtectV solves this challenge by delivering a simple and easy way to protect
even the most sensitive and highly-regulated data in the cloud. By encrypting
entire virtual machine instances and attached storage volumes, SafeNet ProtectV
allows customers to separate security administration duties, enforce granular
controls and establish clear accountability with audit trails and detailed
compliance reporting.
"The ability to easily implement strong data protection and security in the
cloud is a major factor for companies that are considering moving their
sensitive workloads," said Todd Moore, Vice President of data encryption product
management at Gemalto. "By working with Microsoft and a number of other cloud
providers, we are making it simple for customers to deploy a robust encryption
framework, allowing them to move to the cloud with confidence and providing
enhanced security without compromising convenience. ProtectV provides the audit
controls and visibility to secure that confidence."
"With the Azure Marketplace, Microsoft provides customers with choice,
flexibility and access to highly optimized and integrated applications and
services ready to deploy in the cloud," said Nicole Herskowitz, Senior Director
of Product Marketing, Microsoft Azure. "By adding companies like Gemalto and its
cloud-based data encryption solution, customers can benefit from a reliable
technology that allows them to deliver new and innovative services to their end
users."
Through its acquisition of SafeNet, Gemalto offers one of the most complete
portfolios of enterprise security solutions in the world, enabling its customers
to enjoy protection of data, digital identities, payments, and transactions -
from the edge to the core. Gemalto's complete portfolio of SafeNet Identity and
