Case Study: a fraud detection company achieves BYOK data protection with Baffle

Fraud Detection Solution Empowers Financial Services Customers With Byok Data Protection

The customer, a fraud detection company, is a leading provider of solutions for financial institutions. Their large banking clients demanded a "Bring Your Own Key" (BYOK) solution to meet strict privacy requirements and maintain control over their own encrypted data. The challenge was to implement this BYOK capability without making arduous changes to their applications and systems.

Baffle provided a no-code data encryption solution for the company's AWS-hosted databases. Baffle's service encrypts sensitive data on-the-fly as it enters the database, using format-preserving encryption and supporting BYOK through AWS KMS. This allowed the fraud detection company to offer their clients control over their encryption keys, which was a key factor in landing some of the largest financial services institutions as customers. The solution also significantly reduced the attack surface for data breaches and ensured compliance with global privacy regulations.
