Called CloudLock    Selective Encryption, the products launch comes a few weeks    after CloudLock     announced that it had raised $16.5 million in Series C    funding led by Bessemer Venture Partners, bringing its    total funding to $28.2 million. It will make its public debut    next week at the 2014 RSA Conference in San Francisco.  <\/p>\n<p>    CloudLock Selective Encryption will protect data on the two    platforms, Salesforce.com and Google Apps, that CloudLock    currently covers, as well as new cloud service providers the    startup signs up as it expands.  <\/p>\n<p>    Cloud traffic is expected to reach a total of 7.7    zettabytes, or two-thirds of global data center traffic, by    2017. For SaaS and cloud platforms, rapid growth also presents    a significant security challenge because certain types of    information have to protected in specific ways to meet    compliance laws and regulations. This data includes personal    information; credit card data; medical records protected under    the HIPAA privacy law; and intellectual property.  <\/p>\n<p>    By making it easier for customers to provide higher levels of    security for just the data that requires it, CloudLock    Selective Encryption can help cloud service companies scale up    more efficiently while complying with security regulations.  <\/p>\n<p>    CloudLock Selective Encryption looks for sensitive data and    then automatically encrypts it to meet compliance laws without    affecting the apps performance. The product can be used for    either end-user and corporate-governed encryption, and it    protects data that is being uploaded to the cloud, as well data    that is already in storage.  <\/p>\n<p>    In a statement, CloudLock CTO and co-founder Ron Zalkind said:    Weve heard from hundreds of our customers that the    gateway-based and reverse-proxy solutions out there require    heavy deployments, are highly prone to breaking cloud apps, and    are often unavailable from mobile apps. CloudLock is    provisioned completely in the cloud, in minutes.  <\/p>\n<p>    Image by picjumbo  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>The rest is here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2014\/02\/20\/cloudlock-selective-encryption\/\" title=\"CloudLock Launches A Fully Cloud-Based Selective Encryption Product\">CloudLock Launches A Fully Cloud-Based Selective Encryption Product<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Cloud security startup CloudLock will launch new encryption product to make it easier for software-as-a-service and cloud platforms to protect sensitive data. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-encryption"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5579"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5579"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5579\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/euvolution.com\/open-source-convergence\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
