Retail Industry Data Security

Data at Risk

Reportable data breaches can not only have a negative effect on sales and reputation and generate credit monitoring costs and fines, but they are also are alleged to have cost senior executives and even CEOs their jobs.

PCI DSS Compliance Requirements

Data not compliant with PCI DSS standards increases credit card costs on every transaction and may put your organization at risk for fines.

Encryption with Integrated Key Management

Make your data unreadable to others through strong, centrally managed, file, volume and application encryption combined with simple, centralized key management that is transparent to processes, applications and users

Access Policies and Privileged User Controls

Restrict access to encrypted data through access policies and user controls that permit data to be decrypted only for authorized users and applications, while allowing privileged users to perform IT operationswithout the ability to see protected information.

Security Intelligence

Logs that capture access attempts to protected data provide high value security intelligence information that can be used with a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution and for compliance reporting.

Vormetric Tokenization with Dynamic Masking

In addition, Vormetric Tokenization with Dynamic Masking lets administrators establish policies to return an entire field tokenized or dynamically mask parts of a field. With the solution’s format-preserving tokenization capabilities, managers can restrict access to sensitive assets, yet at the same time, format the protected data in a way that enables many users to do their jobs.
