Enveil Honored at 2018 SC Awards

Trust Award: Best Cloud Computing Security Solution

Winner: Enveil

There are three states of data: data in motion, data at rest, and data in use. Each has its own security challenges. But from a cloud computing point of view, data in use has been especially difficult to secure, historically forcing users to employ inefficient workarounds, obfuscate their intentions, implement perimeter defenses or isolate their computing environments.

Convinced there's a better way, Enveil helps cloud users protect their sensitive information by using homomorphic encryption to ensure data in the cloud always remains encrypted even when it's being actively used to perform operations such as searches and analyses.

Consequently, authorized employees can actively utilize their data without having to worry about the content or results of their inquiries being revealed in the cloud, on-premise or anywhere in between.

Without this “Never Decrypt” approach, a search could create points of exposure, allowing unauthorized parties to view bits of data that collectively reveal valuable or damaging intelligence about a company. For example, searches pertaining to a rival company might suggest that a business is looking to complete a merger or acquisition.

Developed by mathematics experts from the U.S. intel community, Enveil's GDPR-friendly technology opens up new opportunities for previously reluctant businesses to leverage the cloud and monetize their data without fearing privacy, liability or compliance repercussions.
