Cloud / Platform
Migration
Uphold the Shared Security Model
The cloud provides a secure infrastructure, but what the users do with their data inside the Cloud is their own responsibility. This means that data within the Cloud left unprotected risks being stolen or misused by an unauthorized actor. Legal guidelines also dictate exactly what data can and cannot be moved from an organization’s on-premises environment to the Cloud.
Every migration includes regulatory indicators to sort through, whether it’s ensuring that sensitive data isn’t stored openly on the Cloud, or protecting data in data centers located in different geographies. PKWARE’s data security and privacy platform, PK Protect, plays a vital role in cloud strategy by automatically scanning and acting on all your migrations to keep your data safe.
Pre-Migration
Scans
Know what you have before you move it to ensure that only the data you intend in the format you intend it is moved.
Post-Migration
Guarantee
Once data has been moved, a second scan can tell you exactly where everything is in the new environment for added audit protection.
Scale to
the Data
Scan multiple terabytes of data, structured and unstructured, both on-premises and in the Cloud during the migration process.
Data Modernization
Capabilities
PKWARE solutions also support on-premises moves from one repository to another as part of data modernization for infrastructure needs.
Speed and
Accuracy
Maintain an ongoing scan for data migration to the Cloud or another database with the ability to scan and move files either on-demand or as part of a constant pipeline.
Extensive
Connection
PK Protect scans data on Oracle, Redshift, file shares, S3, AWS, and more, including laptops and other endpoints where data may be stored.
Gain Optics
into Data Sensitivity
Scan through all legacy data sources and create actionable insights to calculate the risk of migration, then enforce controls and remediation that will mitigate the risk prior to moving the data.
Protect
for the Move
With clear insights into the sensitivity of the data, PKWARE solutions automatically remediate sensitive data per established policies. Irreversible data masking is available to provision data for dev/test or analytics, while element-level encryption protects data prior to the migration and only allows certain roles to decrypt the information.
Flexible
Design and
Deployment
Mitigate the security, privacy, and compliance resistance without any overhead with flexibility built into the design and deployment of PKWARE solutions. Options include a fully hosted deployment, embedded library approach, or hosted API gateway for serverless architecture.
