PEM Encryption

Encrypt Data Without Complexity or Disruption

Traditional encryption hinders productivity and demands significant administrative overhead. PK Protect Endpoint Manager (PEM) offers a modern alternative with streamlined encryption that automatically secures files while enabling seamless access. With certificate-free, policy-based encryption, PKWARE’s data encryption you can eliminate the headaches of traditional key management. Secure data quickly and ensure compliance, without compromising usability.

Simplify Encryption for Frictionless Compliance

Data Masking v1

Persistent Encryption, At Rest and In Transit

Regulations like GLBA, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and FISMA mandate encryption of data in all locations, including storage, transmission, and external environments. PK Protect supports this with persistent encryption that stays with your data, wherever it resides and moves. Secure your data throughout its entire lifecycle.

Encryption That Doesn’t Slow Down Business

Eliminate certificate reliance to secure data without impacting productivity and reduce overhead and costs. One of the largest U.S. banks uses our data encryption solution to process 20–30 million encryptions monthly. 150,000 users regularly interact with encrypted files with zero friction.

Enterprise-Grade Speed and Scalability v1

Centralized Protection Without User Dependence

Enforce encryption policies across the enterprise with minimal effort and without relying on user behavior. Start encrypting data within days, not months. Quickly reduce risk and avoid fines for non-compliance.

Compliance at Scale

FISERV, one of the world’s largest financial services companies, relies on our data encryption solution to deliver consistent, automated at-rest and in-transit encryption across 50,000 desktops and 1,200 servers. They encrypt over 1 million files daily. This supports audit readiness and compliance and prevents exposure of sensitive data, all without disrupting user workflows.

“PKWARE is the backbone of our data protection strategy. With agents across all endpoints, we seamlessly encrypt and decrypt files while managing petabytes of data. For over 5 years, PKWARE has helped us meet audit requirements with confidence and trust.”

Encryption Case Study

Streamlined Compliance and Proactive Protection

Features designed to remove manual overhead while ensuring audit-readiness.

Smartkeys

Smartkeys

Maintain strong data protection, without disrupting user experience. A Smartkey combines encryption keys with a corresponding access control list to allow authorized users easy access to encrypted files. Smartkey technology reduces operational expenses. A separate key infrastructure and issuing and tracking certificates are no longer necessary.

Audit Logs for Visibility and Auditability

Leverage comprehensive audit logs that support internal governance and external audits with verifiable proof of compliance. Eliminate the need for manual evidence gathering and enable early detection of anomalies, such as failed decryption attempts or unusually high volumes of decryption activities.

Contingency Keys to Prevent Accidental Data Lockouts

Contingency Keys to Prevent Accidental Data Lockouts

Built-in contingency keys maintain encrypted data access even if original keys or passphrases are lost. This prevents accidental data lockouts and supports operational resilience.

Crypto Agility for Evolving Your Security Strategy

Locate encrypted files across your organization and stay ahead of the quantum curve. When new encryption standards are released, PKWARE will make it easy to achieve crypto agility with automated key rotation and seamless upgrades to the latest quantum-safe algorithms.

Data Encryption FAQs

PEM delivers certificate-free, policy-based encryption without the complexity of traditional key management. With this approach, you’ll achieve fast, compliant data security. Unlike traditional encryption, which is disruptive and resource-heavy, our data encryption software simplifies protection by automatically securing files while keeping access seamless.

Disk Encryption solutions like BitLocker encrypt all data on the hard drive, while PK Protect provides data-centric, file-level encryption. Disk encryption only encrypts data at rest and there is no protection if the system is breached or as files are used or shared. In comparison, PK Protect Secures data at-rest and in-transit for persistent and comprehensive protection at rest and in transit and even if the hard drive is breached. This ensures compliance with regulations like GLBA, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and FISMA.

Yes. Our data encryption solution helps organizations meet encryption mandates for regulations such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, GLBA, FISMA, and GDPR. It provides persistent encryption at rest and in motion, ensuring sensitive data remains protected and audit ready.
Organizations can start encrypting sensitive data within days, not months, thanks to our streamlined implementation and centralized policy management.

PKWARE has simplified the complex, resource-intensive process of transitioning to quantum-safe encryption. We can help organizations ensure they remain crypto-agile.

PKWARE’s data encryption solution supports all file types, by wrapping files in an encrypted ZIP archive.

Our data encryption solution includes contingency keys to prevent accidental data lockouts, ensuring business continuity even if original keys or passphrases are lost.

PK Protect encryption leverages our own PKZIP compression technology at its core, which means in most cases the encrypted file takes up less disk space than the original file.
