Key Benefits

Role-based access management for sensitive and business-critical data

Flexibly decide which user groups are allowed to access which kinds of data.

Persistent encryption protects data externally and internally

Protects Data at Rest and Data in Motion. Network management is strictly separated from key management to avoid unlimited data access for network administrators.

Convenient data access from all platforms and devices

All files are encrypted and decrypted directly at the users’ endpoint regardless of the storage location.

u.trust Data File – the software-based data encryption solution

u.trust Data File adds the extra-layer of security to your data. With its role-based access rights management it enables you to avoid external access (e. g. by attackers or external consultants with administrative rights) as well as unauthorized internal access (e. g. by network administrators) within your organization. Given that, it is the ideal solution to ensure compliant data management.

The cryptographic keys used to encrypt your data are solely stored in a central data base or in the key ring at the users’ local machine so you are 100% independent from the (cloud) providers you may use.

On top, u.trust Data File follows a strict role split approach: The network administrator can access and manage files and the security officer manages keys and security policies. This ensures a complete separation of network administration and security management.
