FREDERICK, MARYLAND – Fornetix, LLC and D360 Technologies jointly announced today that they formed a partnership to bring Fornetix VaultCore™ to the Japan market. Fornetix VaultCore is an advanced encryption key management solution that automates the full key lifecycle across the entire enterprise from infrastructure to end-point, allowing organizations to easily manage encryption keys and secure critical data assets.

The COVID-19 crisis has created a significant need for  telework and the distributed networks to support it. This has enabled an increase in the attack surface area for bad actors uncovering major vulnerabilities throughout the enterprise. According to a recent Gartner report, only 18% of IT leaders believe their businesses are highly prepared for the impact of coronavirus. It is clear that this requires the immediate establishment of an encryption security solution that protects data seamlessly wherever it resides, and enforces consistent security policies throughout the data life cycle.
 
“We are excited to bring Fornetix VaultCore to the Japan market and help companies protect themselves from the increase of vulnerabilities due to the current pandemic. Implementing VaultCore is a smart decision for any IT administrator who is looking for a security solution to protect critical data, now and for the future.”  – Mark Gilroy, CEO, Fornetix, Inc.

VaultCore provides simple scale encryption management for public, private, on-premise, virtual, and cloud environments. VaultCore's detailed policy tools, user access controls, and robust automation make it easy to manage the entire encryption key lifecycle across the enterprise. VaultCore is the only encryption management solution capable of providing, processing and supporting hundreds of millions of keys for large distributed environments with minimal performance impact. Easy integration with KMIP and non-KMIP using Fornetix’s Orchestration Gateway™ allows companies to leverage their existing technology investments. The Fornetix VaultCore appliance is a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated solution (with NIST Certification pending) that employs an HSM for a FIPS 140-2 Level 3 root of trust.
 

The latest best practices in enterprise data security include utilizing KMIP AND an encryption key management solution. While most security conscious companies are mindful of the latest advancements in storage encryption, there is a lack of attention to the requirements necessary to managing the thousands of keys generated from multiple data centers, storage devices, and software — specifically, enterprise level encryption key management systems have been overlooked, leaving companies vulnerable.

Partnership delivers impenetrable security foundation throughout the enterprise and out to the edge

In a digital world, everything is a 1 or a 0. Those 1’s and 0’s can range from the lifeblood of an organization down to a simple message from one person to another. In most cases, those 1’s and 0’s can be jostled around: enter encryption. Tight encryption standards can make even the most significant, sensitive data appear to be indecipherable to the naked eye. Multiple firewalls, strong antivirus software, enterprise-wide encryption… these are all techniques utilized to strengthen our security posture to prevent bad actors from accessing sensitive data. Bolstering a strong perimeter security defense, coupled with constantly rotating encryption keys inside and outside of the perimeter, and always having the latest antivirus definitions will lead to a stronger aggregate security posture.
