History

As the first NIAP Common Criteria and CSfC-certified Data in Use security company and a 2020 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer, Enveil’s award-winning, market-ready solutions are bringing nation-state level privacy-preserving protection to the global marketplace.

Founded by U.S. Intelligence Community alumni with backgrounds in mathematics, algorithmics, and machine learning, Enveil is revolutionizing data privacy and security by addressing a Data in Use challenge that people have been chasing for more than 30 years. Our groundbreaking use of homomorphic encryption, a key pillar of the Privacy Enhancing Technologies category, means data can be leveraged at scale and in-place, with processing times that ensure minimal impact on user experience.

The market for these business-enabling capabilities has never been greater: Gartner analysts predict that by 2025, 50% of large organizations will adopt privacy-enhancing computation for processing data in untrusted environments and multiparty data analytics use cases (Gartner “Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2021,” Oct. 2020). Enveil is already delivering on this promise. Customers use ZeroReveal® to securely derive insights, cross-match, and search third-party data assets without ever revealing the content of the search itself or compromising the security or ownership of the underlying data. 

By focusing on the security and privacy posture of the search or analytic, Enveil protects a customer’s interests and intent as well as the content of the operation and its corresponding results. Information can be securely shared between entities and across jurisdictional boundaries, expanding data access and utility and enabling organizations to reduce risk while making faster, better-informed decisions. Whether you're performing searches or analytics on data you own, seeking information from a third-party data provider, or driving revenue by securely monetizing your data assets, Enveil ensures nothing is ever revealed during the entire processing lifecycle. 

Enveil uniquely provides a decentralized, in-place approach to secure data collaboration, allowing participating entities to retain granular control and ownership of their sensitive assets. Since requirements to move or pool sensitive assets frequently prove to be the breaking point in collaboration efforts, Enveil removes that risk by allowing organizations to securely and privately search and share over third-party data as it is and where it is today. 

Enveil’s core technology has been implemented at scale in the most sensitive of environments, where analysts work under the assumption the system has already been compromised – a Zero Trust assumption that most organizations should operate under today. Headquartered in the Washington, D.C. metro area, Enveil applies the team’s collective experience in the high-stakes world of national security to your most critical data security challenges. Our innovative use of Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) delivers enterprise and consumer privacy and security across verticals.
