Case Study: Global Technology Company achieves better data security and performance with ShardSecure

Global Technology Company Offloads Data Security to ShardSecure, Reducing Overhead and Improving Performance

Global Technology Company needed to secure a large global surveillance management system spanning thousands of application servers and tens of thousands of CCTV cameras, but encrypting all of that streaming video and IoT data would have created unacceptable latency and significant infrastructure costs. To protect sensitive video, IP, and personal information without hurting performance, the company turned to ShardSecure and its Microshard™ technology.

ShardSecure implemented a three-step process of shredding, mixing, and distributing data across segmented storage repositories, making the data unintelligible and unusable to unauthorized users. The result was strong protection with seamless performance, no need to manage encryption keys, and substantial cost savings—estimated in the high six figures—by avoiding hundreds of additional virtual machines, software licensing, and added operational overhead.
