Overall Satisfaction with Voltage SecureData

With the advent of POPIA Compliance requirements within South Africa, this tool, Voltage SecureData was able to assist in encryption capabilities, beyond this, it allowed a certain level of access of data not to be passed onto the wrong or user that might not be to "see" customer/user data. Due to the power of FPE (Format Preserving Encryption) it allowed encryption to not be bloated and could be run as a batch job runs. The capability extends across mainframe systems, which technically allows downstream applications to almost consume encrypted data for "free" This has allowed many departments to carry out housekeeping functions on their data, almost to upgrade their data hygiene. With many companies opting to have workloads moved into the cloud, this tool has allowed encrypted data to travel into the cloud and there is also a gateway functionality where it sits at the edge to search for certain keys words with would be encrypted on leaving the on-prem environment. This further allowed archived data to be moved onto slowed storage whilst once again in the event of a data breach, the data almost looks real due to the power of FPE. It is with this functionality that is really powerful.
