PKWARE Introduces Three Powerful Solutions to Eliminate Security Breaches: Data-centric Security Would Have Prevented Recently Announced Personal Information Losses

Milwaukee, WI (April 21, 2011) - PKWARE, Inc., announced the introduction of three new security solutions that eliminate the type of security breaches dominating the news. The PKWARE Virtualization, Cloud, and Data Center Solutions are based on data-centric encryption, rendering data useless if it is compromised in any way.

Security experts note that the best way to keep sensitive information secure over the Internet and into the cloud is to protect the data using data-centric, file-level encryption. With PKWARE solutions, the data remains completely protected, regardless of whether it is in motion or at rest. PKWARE has the only total solutions for reducing and securing data, so the data can be securely moved or stored anywhere, across any computing environment --- inside or outside of the enterprise, and in private, hybrid or public clouds.

“Properly implemented data-centric encryption provides critical protection for sensitive information. If a company suffers a data breach, and can prove that the stolen data was encrypted and the encryption keys were not compromised, and the data was not otherwise accessible to the attacker, then the company can state that the breach did not expose any confidential information,” stated Diana Kelley, co-founder and principal analyst of SecurityCurve.

“More than 30,000 global corporations, 200 government agencies, and thousands of educational institutions currently use PKWARE solutions and I am certain that these new security breaches will increase that number exponentially,” said Miller Newton, CEO, of PKWARE. “If data isn’t properly protected, loss and exposure can happen anywhere from the desktop to the data center; from the mobile device to the cloud. PKWARE offers the only solutions to protect the data across all computing platforms and operating systems and works within a public, private or hybrid cloud computing environment.”

The PKWARE Solutions for Virtualization, the Cloud and the Data Center provide unique benefits to each computing environment. The PKWARE Virtualization Solution protects the data, plugging known security gaps in virtual machine (VM) architecture, as well as measurably reducing the amount of data intrinsic with VM sprawl. The Cloud Solution not only secures data transfers and storage throughout the cloud, but it also reduces the cost of transferring and storing the data. The PKWARE Data Center Solution allows data protection and the ability to meet Service Level Agreements by reducing the elapsed time in transporting and processing large volumes of data. In the context of these latest security breaches, all of the PKWARE Solutions ensure that confidential and personal information is safe, and the significant costs and potential damage to a company’s reputation as a result of data breaches are eliminated.
