| Covata provides an extensible platform for data-centric security that enables businesses, government agencies, vendor partners, and services providers to integrate data-centric security into applications, products, and services. Covata reduces the risk of data compromise from doing business over untrusted networks and devices. Covata givesorganizations the confidence to share data beyond the domain via ad hoc relationships with customers or partners, or realize the business benefits of technology like the cloud and mobility. At Covata we call this “own your data” - securing data at the point of origination so it is protected wherever it resides. The Covata Platform enables organizations to protect sensitive data through encryption, to control that data through granular, persistent data rights management, and to view all access activity for the protected data. Vendors who appreciate the business value of data-centric security are faced with the classic buy-versus-build strategic question: develop their own encryption platform or incorporate an existing set of capabilities. Covata ends the debate with a solution built from the ground up to be an extensible, services-based platform that is readily integrated into user workflows. The flexible Covata platform easily adapts to varying operating environments and implementation scenarios, freeing critical development resources to focus on delivering the application or service rather than designing, developing and deploying security functions. | $6.9M / Post-IPO Equity / Nov 23, 2015 |
