VPS for Homegrown Cloud Appliucations
Deploy your Enterprise Applications on the Cloud without Regulatory Compliance or Data Security Concerns
It has become clear that developing and deploying enterprise applications on cloud platforms provides substantial benefits in terms of cost, scalability and agility. Yet, many enterprises have been reluctant to make the move to cloud computing due to regulatory restrictions which prohibit them from storing sensitive data in the cloud, or due to concerns about the privacy and security of data stored in the cloud. Navajo Systems is proud to provide the missing link between cloud applications and regulatory compliance.
Eliminate SaaS Regulatory Compliance Issues
Virtual Private SaaS (VPS) completely eliminates the data regulation restrictions which may apply to corporate data stored in the cloud. VPS allows organizations to adopt the cloud for developing and deploying homegrown applications while ensuring that no regulated information or confidential customer data is stored outside the enterprise.
It does this by transparently encrypting sensitive information before it is delivered to the application's servers for storage and processing. Since no regulated information is ever stored in plain text, no thefts or leaks of readable data are possible: anyone accessing the application from outside the enterprise will see only encrypted data.
End users remain completely unaware of the background encryption/decryption processes, yet their data is completely unreadable (and therefore meaningless) when stored on the cloud application server. Database theft and identity theft become harmless, and regulatory compliance is ensured, as all sensitive data remains undecipherable when transmitted and stored outside the enterprise firewall.
Sensitive Data is Encrypted while Full Application Functionality is Retained
In a manner completely transparent to both the application and end users, VPS detects the sensitive data elements in the requests and responses traveling between the server and clients. VPS encrypts and decrypts these data fields on the fly, as required, without altering the cloud application request structure. In fact, application developers do not even need to be aware that this data encryption-decryption process is occurring!
It is important to emphasize that standard data processing functionality is not affected, even while some of the data fields within the database are stored encrypted on the server. Sorting, searching, reporting and field validation functionality remains intact.
If the application allows a user to export data to a PC (to a Word document or Excel spreadsheet, for example), VPS will decrypt the encrypted elements in the exported document, resulting in a fully-readable, clear text document on the user's computer.
Because no readable sensitive data is stored in the application's server-side databases, legal regulations pertaining to sensitive data no longer come into play.
