SOLUTION OVERVIEW

BLOOMBASE EMC Business Partner Program for Technology Connect Partners

BIG DATA AND OUTBOUND THREATS Enterprise data is growing and expanding on multiple trajectories, according to different forms, delivery platforms, computing and storage environments. EMC's storage infrastructure harnesses this paradigm shift with its unified storage and rapid, real time processing of this data. Valuable and sensitive data is distilled from this data mass, both structured and unstructured.

While the complexity in management and execution of data security also increases dramatically, this partnership underscores the tremendous value Bloombase brings to confronting data exposure risk, efficiently and effectively, within the EMC storage infrastructure (on-premises physical and virtual data centers, big data and off-premises cloud). Bloombase displaces inadequate point-based solutions for data at-rest encryption, and addresses vulnerabilities head-on using a unified application-transparent, cross-platform, non-disruptive storage security solution that scales.

BLOOMBASE NEXT-GENERATION DATA SECURITY Bloombase stands out as an independent, versatile, security-proven, powerful and standard-based storage security solution that enables enterprises to fulfill data regulatory compliance requirements easily and cost-effectively.

Bloombase takes a unique software-appliance approach that transforms business-critical storage data into cipher-text, and effectively secures sensitive contents from cyber-attacks, data breaches and various outbound threats. Bloombase StoreSafe delivers agentless, encryption security of at-rest storage data, by operating as a storage proxy, securing a wide range of storage devices and services.

Trusted applications and authorized hosts leverage virtual storage resources provided by Bloombase StoreSafe, to trigger encryption and un-encryption of at-rest data stored at actual storage systems. When host applications write plain-text data to backend storage via Bloombase StoreSafe, the encryption engine extracts plain payloads and converts them as cipher-text in real-time, before transport to storage. Reversing the process, as trusted host applications read from backend storage through Bloombase StoreSafe, the un-encryption engine is triggered to retrieve cipher-text from storage, and converts them to virtual plain-text on-the-fly before getting recomposed as plain payloads, and presented to business applications. Storage data stays naturally encrypted and permanently locked down on physical storage media, therefore, private and safe.
