Building a Secure Enclave in AWS
Even with the advances in public cloud computing, organizations like financial institutions have been unable to leverage these services because many analysts work in secure facilities that have no Internet access.
By integrating Software Defined Perimeter
Assessment technology, Vidder’s PrecisionAccess solution can unlock the agility and cost benefits of public clouds for organizations that must operate in secure facilities.
Vidder’s solution utilizes the Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) to create a secure application layer encrypted connection from the authorized user’s device directly to the protected application in the public cloud.
Conceptually Secure Enclaves provide a new compute model in which the “cloud is migrating inside the regulated data center” versus the existing “migrating to the cloud” design.
- The Secure Enclave ensures only users at facilities controlled by the enterprise who also have valid data center access can access protected applications.
- Vidder’s PrecisionAccess utilizes a Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) application layer connection model that blocks laterally moving malware.
- PrecisionAccess allows the strict partitioning and role based access that is a standard feature of regulated data centers to be re-created in public cloud environments.
For entities like financial and government agencies the Secure Enclave is a significant breakthrough as it allows them to benefit from the agility and cost benefits of the AWS commercial marketplace.
