Until Sotero, enterprise teams, SaaS companies and data platform providers had no easy way to ubiquitously protect operational databases, tackle data protection for secure cloud data transfer and access, or confidently support secure data sharing and analysis. Eliminating the need for multiple data encryption tools, including point solutions such as Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) for relational, non-tabular (NoSQL), and file databases, Sotero puts an end to data protection solution sprawl. Sotero utilizes the most sophisticated encryption for data in use, including deterministic, random, and format-preserving encryption. Sotero is also compatible with all on-prem, cloud and hybrid data stores, including Oracle, SQL Server, MySQL, Hadoop, Avalanche, Snowflake, Yellowbrick, Postgres, and MongoDB, and comes with pre-built integrations to leading identity access and key management solutions.
