CipherTrust Protection for Teradata

Teradata leverages all of the data, all of the time, so you can analyze anything, deploy anywhere, and deliver analytics that matter. But the aggregation of data can also present risks. Thales enables your organization to guard against such security risks. CipherTrust Protection for Teradata makes it fast and efficient to employ robust data-at-rest security capabilities in your Teradata environments, on premises, in the cloud, or anywhere in between.

Solutions

Secure your Teradata databases and big data environments

  • Centrally manage encryption across your Teradata environments—including the Teradata database and Teradata Appliance for Hadoop
  • Enforce granular controls to enable administrators to perform operational tasks, without accessing sensitive data in the clear
  • Centrally manage encryption keys and policies
  • Boost security without compromising the value of big data analytics
  • Establish protections against cyberattacks and abuse by privileged users
  • Reduce costs and administrative overhead relative to other data protection solutions for Teradata

Strengthened security with minimized disruption and costs

CipherTrust Protection for Teradata Database simplifies the process of securing sensitive records, enabling encryption of specific fields and columns in Teradata databases. The solution also offers NIST-approved format-preserving encryption (FPE) capabilities, so you can encrypt sensitive records without altering their format or field schemas. Not only does this minimize the potential impact of encryption on associated applications and workflows, but it helps you avoid the increased storage requirements associated with conventional encryption approaches.
