New cloud framework addresses data privacy concerns

cloud security

Data privacy is a growing concern and a number of countries including Germany, France and Russia have recently adopted new data protection regulations to protect their citizens' information.

Add in regulations like HIPAA and FINRA in the US and it's clear that businesses need to have an infrastructure to meet the various requirements or face possible legal consequences.

Data protection and governance specialist Druva is launching a set of new capabilities that offer a comprehensive data privacy framework to enable businesses to meet growing global privacy demands.

Built on the company's existing cloud security offerings it addresses concerns about corporate and employee data misuse and emerging legal data requirements. Druva centralizes and controls business data residing on employees' desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones via integrated endpoint backup, data loss prevention, IT-managed file sharing, and data governance controls. It then continually mirrors end-user data, which enables rapid data recovery for lost or stolen devices, allows remote user access to any file or folder from any device, and supports eDiscovery, compliance and forensics needs when required.

Using a single cloud solution it has support for 11 different global admin regions. So for example companies with operations in Germany can comply with the country's tough employee data legislation. But whilst meeting local requirements enterprises can maintain a single global record of activity.

"Securing data is important, but addressing security without enacting appropriate privacy measures leaves data -- and companies -- vulnerable. Today, more than ever, global organizations must comply with regional data regulations. Privacy concerns are being forced into IT’s top priorities. Focusing exclusively on security can compromise privacy, exposing organizations to negative publicity as well as possible legal and regulatory action," says Jaspreet Singh, CEO of Druva. "With 70 percent of new inSync customers now choosing our cloud deployment option, we have developed a rigorous privacy framework to reduce those risks and support their global needs".
