Thales – Data Protection Gateway

Transparently protect PII and sensitive data so that random people cannot see the data in the chain. CipherTrust Data Protection Gateway (DPG) protects the data at the earliest possible point, allowing the data to travel securely through the solution to its destination. Every single prying eye sees only the encrypted data. Only authorized people or applications can access the clear text.

For many new and evolving applications, the DevOps team may face a challenge: protect data for web services-based applications without having access to the application and database or data store. Deployment architectures such as containers and cloud-scalability solutions (e.g., Kubernetes, Helm) demand data protection solutions that integrate seamlessly and easily.

To meet these challenges, DPG offers transparent data protection to any RESTful web service or microservice leveraging REST APIs.

DPG is deployed inline between the client and web service and transparently protects sensitive data inline without modifying legacy or cloud native applications. DPG interprets RESTful data and performs protection operations based on policies defined centrally in the Thales CipherTrust Manager, operating seamlessly with other pod-supporting services.
