Perspecsys' AppProtex Platform supports organizations and enterprises in sectors including banking, manufacturing, healthcare, government and more, which need to retain control over sensitive information while using cloud applications. With AppProtex, sensitive data is replaced with a token or an encrypted value while still inside the organization's firewall, prior to going to a cloud environment for processing and storage. Because the clear-text data never leaves the organization, and is protected in-transit, at-rest and in ue within the cloud, issues associated with data privacy, security and residency compliance are completely addressed. In addition to securing the data, the AppProtex Cloud Data Protection Platform ensures that the users of cloud applications can still use the application's features - like searching, sorting and reporting - even on data that has been strongly encrypted or tokenized.

"Info Security Products Guide's recognition of the AppProtex Cloud Data Protection Platform further validates our product as best-in-class by helping businesses across the globe protect and maintain control of sensitive cloud data while enjoying the full benefits and functionality of the public cloud," said David Canellos, CEO of Perspecsys.

This achievement demonstrates that the AppProtex Cloud Data Protection Platform is ahead of the curve when it comes to the best of the best products that can provide the highest level of cloud security and control."
