Organizations today have significant pressures to safeguard their customers most sensitive data - the dangers of identity theft, regulations such as PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) or the new Identity Theft Red Flags regulation, and development environments or outsourced environments where customer identity data may be exposed.

Voltage SecureData™ enables companies to simply and rapidly protect the data itself, without the need for major changes to their applications, databases or business processes. Based on a revolutionary technology called Format-Preserving Encryption™ (FPE), Voltage SecureData encrypts data in databases and applications while retaining the format of the original structured information.

Standard encryption methods alter the original format of data, producing a different output. For example – a 16 digit credit card number encrypted with AES produces a long alphanumeric string, with FPE - you get a encrypted credit card number that looks and feels the same as a regular credit card. By maintaining the format of the data being encrypted, database schema changes are minimized as are application changes. This means that whole systems can be rapidly protected at significantly reduced cost.

Using Format-Preserving Encryption (FPE), Voltage SecureData maintains data format and eliminates business process changes.

Protect your customers from Identity Theft
By encrypting identity information such as credit card numbers, bank account numbers, social security numbers with FPE, criminals will be unable to compromise customer identities in the event of a data breach

Fast compliance with PCI, Identity Theft Red Flag and other regulations
By using the FPE approach with Voltage SecureData, it is possible to rapidly enable compliance - in fact on average 5 times faster than traditional techniques

Reduce risks with outsourced environments
By safeguarding your data with FPE and Voltage SecureData, the risks of unintentional exposure of sensitive data is dramatically reduced

Enable developer access to production data
By masking or de-identifying your production data for use by developers in test and QA environments, you ca continue to get the best results from your developers without compromising the safety of sensitive information

Voltage SecureData leverages FPE to deliver a comprehensive solution for data protection that offers data de-identification, data masking, and data redaction services that does not require costly and time-consuming data schema and data format changes in existing systems. Voltage SecureData enables enterprises to ensure sensitive data is protected as it is collected, used, stored, and distributed to less controlled environments (e.g. test and development) regardless of infrastructure or application format requirements.
