The company said that the solution helps retail, banking, and other financial institution customers achieve PCI compliance by allowing them to encrypt and decrypt critical data in z/OS environments as well as manage bulk encryptions and decryptions within flat files with the SafeNet Transform Utility.
Rana Gupta, business head, INDIA and SAARC, SafeNet India, said, "We now offer a mainframe solution to quickly and easily encrypt all sensitive data within a z/OS environment while maintaining the mainframe's manageability and the availability of critical customer data such as credit card numbers and customer records."
The solution consists of SafeNet z/OS Application Connector – users access DataSecure via an API from CICS, TSO, or Batch environments to request any type of data to be encrypted or decrypted – and SafeNet DataSecure Appliance, which resides outside of the z/OS mainframe where it manages encryption keys and securely encrypts and decrypts data based on requests sent from the mainframe. |
