The PerspecSys Cloud Protection Gateway allows organizations to protect their sensitive business data when using popular cloud applications such as Oracle CRM On Demand, Salesforce.com, Xactly Incent, Cornerstone on Demand, Oracle Fusion, and others. Any information that leaves a business’ environment and enters the cloud can be tokenized or encrypted, ensuring that data remains undecipherable when it is being processed or stored in the cloud.
PerspecSys’ solution integrates easily into an enterprise SaaS implementation. Installed inside of an organization or its IaaS provider (such as Amazon AWS), the PerspecSys PRS Server resides transparently between the application and its users, intercepting critical data before it is passed to the application in the cloud, and replacing it with a random token or encrypted value that is meaningless outside the PRS Server.
PerspecSys provides regulatory and legally compliant data control while preserving the functionality of an enterprise’s applications, assuring a seamless experience for users and simple deployment and management for IT organizations. PerspecSys provides full data protection for information that is both “in flight” (being processed) and “at rest” (being stored).
The PerspecSys Cloud Data Protection Gateway can be deployed in a wide range of configurations with optional server components. The core system in the PerspecSys Cloud Data Protection Gateway is the PRS Server, acting as a forward proxy. PRS Server Application Adapters can be deployed for each SaaS application that needs to communicate with the PRS Server. The adapters interpret the information flow between the end user and the cloud and play a critical role in preserving application functionality. Optional components include the Mail Transfer Agent Server (used to enable e-mail functionality, if applicable, in SaaS applications) and the Reverse Proxy Server, which provides flexibility in deployment options. Organizations typically use the Reverse Proxy to avoid configuration changes to an existing corporate proxy chain. It can also be deployed in an enterprise’s DMZ in order to provide secure access to the PRS Server for remote users (without requiring them to VPN into the organization).
The PerspecSys Cloud Data Protection solution allows for data protection policies (encryption and tokenization definitions) to be defined and centralized in the core PRS Server, while the SaaS adapters extend these policies to the cloud application while preserving functionality. A management console permits authorized users to maintain data protection, administrative and security policies (such as permissions and access control) across cloud applications.
