CipherTrust Transparent Encryption is one of the widely deployed data protection products within the CipherTrust Data Security Platform. It provides application whitelisting, fine-grained access control and data-at-rest encryption, enabling organizations to prevent ransomware attacks at the back door. It protects both structured and unstructured data with policy-based access controls to files, volumes, databases, containers, big-data wherever it resides on-premises and in hybrid cloud environments. For an even stronger defense, combine CipherTrust Transparent Encryption (CTE) with CTE Ransomware Protection (CTE-RWP).
Thales has also published Data Threat Report and Cloud Security Study for 2023, its annual researches on the latest data and cloud security threats, trends and emerging topics based on surveys of nearly 3,000 IT and security professionals in 18 countries. This year’s reports found an increase in ransomware attacks, and increased risks to sensitive data in the cloud; and discussed the opportunities and challenges of digital sovereignty and points to consider for the future.
To address the evolving threats, Thales has innovated two new solutions including CipherTrust Secrets Management and Ransomware Protection, as part of CipherTrust Data Security Platform which unifies the discovery, classification, protection, and control of sensitive data across cloud, on-premises and hybrid environments.
Ransomware is not only vicious, it’s complicated to defend. This is why it’s necessary to have a multifaceted approach to your defense. Many enterprises use an XDR (Extended Detection & Response application) which is a significant player in the fight, but not the only component necessary to securely shield your data from attacks. CipherTrust Transparent Encryption of data, user access policies, key management, and MFA are all part of data fortification. Additionally, CipherTrust Transparent Encryption Ransomware Protection (CTE-RWP) is a specific protection that monitors for ransomware type activities to stop the malicious processes.
CipherTrust Transparent Encryption Ransomware Protection (CTE- RWP) monitors behaviours, watching for suspicious activities and blocks processes when ransomware indicators are detected. Using behaviour monitoring and data analytics rather than malware signature databases, CTE-RWP protects systems from zero-day attacks even when disconnected from a network. Exceptionally easy to deploy and manage.
‘Within weeks of implementing CipherTrust Platform, we have been able to discover and protect over 50% of our data estate and achieve 100% centralization of key management thereby already reducting the impact of a breach”, Head of Enterprise Key Management & Cryptography, Financial Services company in United States.
