SAN JOSE, Calif., April 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Vormetric, a leader in enterprise data security for physical, virtual and cloud environments, today announced participation in Security Software Free Trials promotion through AWS Marketplace.  The promotion includes Vormetric Transparent Encryption on Amazon Web Services (AWS) for up to 5 AWS Amazon EC2 instances. AWS customers who run the Vormetric Transparent Encryption Software Free Trial through AWS Marketplace will receive $175 of AWS Promotional Credit when they run at least 120 hours between April 12, 2014 and June 14, 2014.  Vormetric Transparent Encryption on AWS can help protect both structured and unstructured data, helping organizations add an additional layer of security to their workloads on the AWS cloud and help ensure they meet compliance requirements for data protection and safeguarding intellectual property. The solution provides:

• Encryption and Key Management – strong, centrally managed, file and volume encryption combined with simple, centralized key management that enables compliance and is transparent to processes, applications and users.
• Access Policies and Privileged User Controls – that restrict access to encrypted data – permitting data to be decrypted only for authorized users and applications, while allowing privileged users to perform IT operations without ability to see protected information.
• Security Intelligence – logs that capture access attempts to protected data, providing high value security intelligence information that can be used with a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution.

"With this Security Software Free Trials promotion, we're highlighting security solutions that complement existing AWS security features and employ data security practices to help safeguard customers' AWS deployments," said Terry Hanold, Vice President, Cloud Commerce, Amazon Web Services, Inc.  "Vormetric's participation in this promotion and availability on AWS Marketplace provides another great tool to help our customers find the right security solutions for their business needs."

"Our goal is to offer organizations the most innovative data security technology whenever and wherever required," said C.J. Radford, VP of Cloud for Vormetric. "This promotion brings together market leading offerings from Vormetric and AWS, making it easier for customers to protect their high-value data with Vormetric Transparent Encryption within AWS."
