IBM Cloud: Virtual Machine Encryption and Thales Key Management

Thales ProtectV virtual disk encryption offers security for virtual machines, storage volumes, and encryption keys residing in the IBM SoftLayer cloud. By encrypting the entire virtual machine instance and attached storage volumes, Thales ProtectV completely isolates data to allow for well-tailored separation of duties amongst IT administrators. Thales ProtectV’s StartGuard pre-boot authentication prevents any secured virtual machine instance from launching without proper authorization. Thales ProtectV encryption, and the data control it offers, allows organizations to migrate their sensitive workloads to the IBM SoftLayer cloud—no matter what level of security is needed. Thales ProtectV is available for sale on the IBM Cloud Marketplace.

Thales Virtual KeySecure centralizes key management for Thales ProtectV-secured virtual instances, as well as other applications and devices in a hardened software appliance that runs in the IBM SoftLayer cloud. Thales Virtual KeySecure and the encryption it manages enables organizations to prove ownership of their sensitive data in IBM SoftLayer Cloud environments, increasing security and compliance. Thales Virtual KeySecure allows organizations to quickly deploy centralized key management in high-availability, clustered configurations. Additionally, Thales Virtual KeySecure ensures that organizations maintain ownership of their encryption keys at all times by hardening the appliance OS and encrypting the entire virtual appliance.
IBM DB2 for IBM i for Power Systems: Database and File Encryption with Thales ProtectApp and Thales KeySecure

IBM DB2 for IBM i for Power Systems: Database and File Encryption with Thales ProtectApp and Thales KeySecure
DB2 for IBM i is an advanced relational database management system (RDBMS) that is pre-installed on the IBM i operating system. It supports applications and development environments running on the IBM i platform and uses several IBM Power System features, such as Dynamic Logical Partitioning, cost-based query optimizer, Capacity Upgrade on Demand, and PowerVM virtualization. The new FIELDPROC exit point in DB2 for IBM i allows users to secure sensitive application data with transparent encryption using third-party encryption APIs.

Thales ProtectApp is an application encryption solution that integrates with DB2 for IBM i to encrypt data at the field and column level without requiring changes to the database or the format of the fields it secures. With Thales KeySecure, Thales ProtectApp also centralizes application encryption policy and key management to increase the level of control that administrators have over their data. Thales ProtectApp uses a comprehensive set of encryption and decryption APIs to secure data from applications written in COBOL, RPG, and Java, among other languages. Because encryption and decryption is transparent, end-users will not see any change to their experience and the data is secured in the database. In addition to the encryption solution for DB2 for IBM i, Thales ProtectApp offers APIs for digital signing and verification, secure hash algorithms (SHA), and hash-based message authentication code (HMAC), making it a versatile and important component of any organization’s security infrastructure.
