PARIS LA D FENSE - Thales today announced its CipherTrust Tokenization, which is the first SAP-certified tokenization solution available to SAP customers. The tokenization solution, available via SAP Data Custodian, provides more granular levels of data protection and user access controls, dramatically accelerating time to compliance for organizations that are moving more applications and workload to the cloud.

The availability of Thales's CipherTrust Tokenization in the SAP Data Custodian builds on a successful long-term relationship between the two companies for encryption, tokenization and key management solutions. The tokenization solution in the SAP Data Custodian was developed by both organisations through SAP's Co-innovation Lab to ensure the security of sensitive data at the most fundamental levels of the application. Customers of SAP can now secure their private data in a database, in use, and even during development.

The release of the SAP Data Custodian Tokenization solution powered by Thales'CipherTrust Tokenization service further advances our commitment to secure customers private data as they migrate to the public cloud, said Dr Wasif Gilani at SAP. The partnership partners built a reliable, comprehensive solution for our customers as they operate their applications using sensitive data. The decision of the Schrems II mandates that all European companies conduct individual assessments of each data transfer to a non-EU country to ensure the privacy and security of sensitive data, including personally identifiable information PII and payment card information PCI. The new partnership between Thales and SAP allows customers to define security on a per-field basis in the application, according to templates in the Data Custodian user interface. Field-level security protects private data before it is written to databases, simplifies database access controls and ensures compliance with PII and PCI regulations.

Todd Moore, vice president of encryption products at Thales, said modern enterprises recognize the importance of a comprehensive cybersecurity solution that protects sensitive data throughout its lifecycle, including the earliest moments of data creation. The new CipherTrust Tokenization solution, co-developed with our partners at SAP, will give users the confidence that their data will be secure at all times, even at the most granular field level. We will work with companies like SAP to develop highly integrated solutions that ensure data security for all cloud users.
