Eclypses launches Secure MTE data protection on AWS Marketplace

Wed, 17th Jul 2024

Eclypses has announced that its Secure MTE (MicroToken Exchange) data protection technology is now available in the AWS Marketplace.

The AWS Marketplace is a digital catalogue comprising numerous software listings from independent vendors, facilitating the discovery, testing, purchase, and deployment of software on Amazon Web Services (AWS). This integration allows AWS customers to enhance their data security with Eclypses Secure MTE, now validated under Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-3.

David Gomes, CEO of Eclypses, underscored the importance of robust data security in an evolving risk environment. "Securing your data is at the core of keeping a business' promise to its customers. In an evolving risk landscape with new threat vectors daily – especially amidst widespread adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI – organisations must go beyond traditional key-based security algorithms to proactively prevent incidents from becoming breaches," he said.

"Now available in AWS Marketplace, customers can implement the Secure MTE solution natively as a next-generation encryption to safeguard their most valuable asset: data."

The Secure MTE solution aims to innovate data protection by converting data into uniquely keyed and encrypted packets. According to Eclypses, even if these packets are hacked, they cannot be decoded. The technology is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing IT environments without the need for extensive training or development.

The excitement extends to Eclypses' partners. Doris Schwartz, CEO of WILLPORT Holdings, expressed her confidence in the collaboration, stating, "By partnering with Eclypses, we align ourselves with a company that shares our commitment to protecting customer data. Eclypses' innovative technology secures our cornerstone products, like WILLPORTtrust and the WILLPORT Multigenerational Super App, enabling us to navigate complex security and regulatory landscapes efficiently."

Secure MTE is constructed not merely as a stand-alone product but as an encompassing data security solution. The integration with AWS Marketplace provides companies a hassle-free adoption of MTE without significant changes to their operational framework.

Joel Martin, Executive Research Leader at HFS Research, commented, "Eclypses brings next generation, cutting-edge encryption technology and expertise to the table. Eclypses MTE will become a strategic asset for businesses aiming to drive innovation and growth in their industries while needing to manage data across applications, mobile devices, and a virtualised workforce and global customer base."

The Eclypses MTE Relay Server adds another layer of network security, offering enhanced protection for backend applications, APIs, and services by delivering full HTTP protection. Customers can achieve seamless integration with their existing systems without alterations to their code, allowing modern IT enterprises to bring diverse workloads to AWS more rapidly and securely.

Benefits cited for customers leveraging the Eclypses solution include a fast implementation process, sometimes under an hour, minimal client-side code changes, and no server-side alterations. This streamlined approach is designed to transcend traditional security measures such as TLS and SSL by encrypting application data directly at the source.
