Encryption, key management & tokenization
Encryption and key management, designed and run by Sidechain.
We design, deploy, and operate encryption, key management, HSMs, and tokenization for customer, patient, and payment data. It is the work we have done the longest.
Sidechain transformed our encryption nightmare into a seamless solution. Finally, data security that just works.
Scope
What we do.
Encryption
Protection for data at rest and in transit across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments: databases, file systems, applications, and backups.
Key management
Enterprise and cloud key management, hardware security modules at FIPS 140-2 Level 3, and Bring Your Own Key or Hold Your Own Key designs where the platform supports them.
Tokenization
Implementation and integration, including batch transformation and validation of tokenization and detokenization workflows for payment and personal data.
Platforms
The platforms we operate.
Deployment, migration, and day-to-day operation on each of these.
- Thales
- CipherTrust Manager and Luna HSM. Thales Platinum Partner for eight consecutive years. Every engineer is Thales-certified.
- Entrust
- nShield HSMs and KeyControl key management.
- Utimaco · Fortanix
- General-purpose and payment HSMs; data security manager deployments.
- Cloud KMS
- AWS KMS, Azure Key Vault, and Google Cloud KMS, including BYOK and HYOK designs for data sovereignty without surrendering control of your keys.
- Managed HSM
- Hardware security module hosting and colocation in Sidechain-managed infrastructure, for organizations that need an HSM but do not want to run a data center for it.
Managed encryption
What we have seen break.
Sidechain engineers have deployed and operated encryption and key management for some of the largest companies in the world. We have seen what breaks: expiring certificates nobody tracked, key rotation that was never tested, agents that silently stopped reporting, and access policies that drifted from the design.
Clients hand us the platform because of that list. We run it as a managed service: monitoring, patching, policy review, and an engineer who knows the deployment.
- Design and deployment of new encryption and key management platforms
- Migrations between platforms and versions
- Managed operation of existing deployments
- CipherTrust health checks and remediation
Of the countless things on my team’s plate, managing encryption infrastructure isn’t a priority. I’m happy to let Sidechain handle all of that so my engineers can focus on what moves our business forward.
Sidechain brought expertise and innovation to bear in a niche area for sensitive data encryption. Their work is of exceptionally high quality.
