Encryption comes to the cloud…
Trend Micro is blazing a new trail with a service called SecureCloud intended to give enterprises a way to encrypt data in cloud-computing environments.
SecureCloud allows you to maintain control over the encryption key used to secure data stored in the Amazon EC2, Eucalyptus or VMware vCloud cloud infrastructures.
Other cloud-computing variants could be added in the future.
“IT operations may be firing up [a remote virtual machine] image but we have security validating the integrity, and it’s encrypted until it hits the cloud, and it’s encrypting data at rest,” according to Todd Thiemann, senior director of data center security and marketing at Trend Micro.
