Gemalto advances secure communications for Financial Services industry with Symphony Platform Integration
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Gemalto SafeNet HSM delivers highest level of digital trust to secure sensitive
communications through the Symphony platform
Amsterdam - November 15, 2016 - Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653 GTO), the world
leader in digital security, today announced the integration of its industry-
leading SafeNet Hardware Security Modules (HSM) with Symphony Communication
Services' secure cloud-based communications platform. Available through
Symphony's app ecosystem, the SafeNet HSM protects the cryptographic root of
trust for secure and confidential communications for highly-regulated
organizations using the Symphony platform. Gemalto recently presented its
contribution to the platform at Symphony Innovate 2016, an invite-only industry
conference dedicated to strategizing on the future of work and how enterprises
are driving this transformation through Symphony's communications platform.
"Symphony delivers a secure compliant productivity and collaboration platform
whose entire ecosystem-from content owners, to trading platforms, to finserv
companies-depends on the best security available," says Frederic Stemmelin,
Symphony's Vice President of Business Development. "Gemalto's state-of-the-art
encryption technology meets the modern standard of security that our platform
demands."
Data security is one of the primary challenges facing the financial services
industry. According to Gemalto's latest Breach Level Index report, breaches
affecting the industry accounted for 12 percent of all breaches during the first
six months of 2016, a period during which the total number of data breaches rose
by 15 percent compared to the last six months of 2015.
The Gemalto SafeNet HSM is a dedicated crypto processor that securely manages,
processes and stores cryptographic keys inside of a hardened, tamper-resistant
device. Symphony's customers can deploy a SafeNet Network HSM in their data
center or purchase Cloud HSM in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud environment
or through Google Cloud Platform, using it to manage and secure encryption keys
and cryptographic operations in order to protect communications and maintain
compliance.
Whether it's via secure text, chat, email, voice, or video, Symphony with
Gemalto secures communications with FIPS 104-2 Level 3 assurances, ensuring
regulatory compliance and protection for data in motion and at rest. Symphony's
integration with the SafeNet HSM gives the customer the ability to manage access
to specific conversations by assigning or revoking credentials for appropriate
participants as needed.
"Working with Symphony is the logical choice for helping financial institutions
protect all sensitive data, regardless of where it's stored or how it gets
shared," said Todd Moore, Senior Vice President for Encryption Products at
Gemalto. "These organizations now have the ability to fully own the keys that
encrypt data in every environment in their infrastructure where the Symphony
platform is deployed, all while employees enjoy the convenience and productivity
capabilities of a streamlined workflow."
