DefiniSec Responds To China Government Breach with Early Adopter Program

EL CERRITO, Calif., June 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Definitive Data Security, Inc., a host application data security startup, on Friday announced accelerated public availability of its Early Adopter Program. This allows organizations to deploy an early preview of the Simple Security: Protect distributed cryptosystem specifically designed to stop nation-state information theft of host application data.

This program is for anyone who has a compelling need for and interest in protections that stop pervasive threats jeopardizing intellectual property data and sensitive confidential information. "We developed our technologies in response to specific nation-state attack dynamics," said John Poffenbarger, Founder and CEO. "In light of recent U.S. Government breach information, we feel it's imperative to make our solution immediately available."

Nation-state sponsored hackers and electronic crime groups have been targeting corporate information and government data for years. They use a wide variety of techniques to bypass network security controls and gain access to critical data. Whether encrypting content and holding keys for ransom or stealing secrets for competitive and geopolitical advantage, it is estimated that the global annual impact of cybercrime is fast approaching the half trillion dollar (US$500 billion) mark.

SSProtect is a comprehensive data protection solution based on the patent-pending KODiAC Architecture, a distributed cryptosystem that manages host application data without impacting user workflows. By applying access control and encryption together with cloud cryptographic offloading, the software and services provide sensitive data exposure risk reduction that inhibits advanced intrusion threats. With components managing data files and email messages along with integrated backup and restore, SSProtect is the most complete host application data protection system available and the first specifically crafted in response to APT Impersonation dynamics.

According to Poffenbarger, "DefiniSec was created to address critical gaps in coverage against targeted attacks. Our goal is to provide solutions with measurable and certain results which are simple to use and easy to administer. This allows organizations of any size to regain control of their most sensitive assets and focus on what they do best."
