BOSTON, Mass., Sept. 26, 2018 – CSPi (NASDAQ: CSPi), a leading provider of security solutions, packet-capture products and IT managed services, today announced that its ARIA™ Software-Defined Security (SDS) solution has been named the winner of the “Enterprise Encryption Solution of the Year” award from CyberSecurity Breakthrough, an independent organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global information security market today.
The ARIA SDS solution takes a radically different approach to enterprise-wide data security with a focus on enhancing network security and application data impenetrability. For example, the ARIA microHSM application securely caches encryption keys away from the host CPU, ensuring that the encryption of critical application data or transactions involving PII/PHI data are protected in the event of a breach. Leveraging a PCIe NIC adapter, the microHSM application is powerful enough to offload the entire set of crypto-functions and encrypt and decrypt the data locally as required as it moves across the PCIe bus or across the network.
“We’re honored to be selected for the CyberSecurity Breakthrough award,” stated Gary Southwell, General Manager and vice president, Security Products, CSPi. “With ARIA, our vision was to provide a solution that works across the entire enterprise, including the public cloud, and ensures that the specified access controls, like encryption, are automatically and correctly applied to specified critical data. Using ARIA, organizations are able to easily and cost-effectively secure DevOps environments and protect critical data, including PII/PHI, no matter where that data is stored or how it is used or accessed.”
“CSPi’s ARIA solution applies a modern approach to securing DevOps and improving application performance,” said James Johnson, managing director, CyberSecurity Breakthrough. ARIA empowers organizations to secure their applications as well as their data, no matter where it is processed or stored, without interfering with application development. The ARIA solution is a standout in the encryption and orchestration categories, with strong technical capabilities for applying an organization’s appropriate contextually aware security policies, and we are thrilled to be able to recognize them in this year’s awards program. Congratulations to the entire CSPi team on their 2018 CyberSecurity Breakthrough Award.”
