Issue 3 2020 17 Jan20002 Data Defenders As the world moves towards even greater levels of digitalisation, it is no longer enough for companies to simply upgrade their services and systems to match the growing needs of clients everywhere. For even as companies grow more digital, so too do those whose intentions are more malicious. Helping companies secure and protect their network data is California’s Most Outstanding Cloud Security Startup to Watch in 2020, Nubeva Technologies. In order to learn more about the vital work the firm does in protecting data, we profiled it. Nubeva helps enterprise organizations maximize their cloud presence and accelerate their cloud transformation journey by providing IT teams with a solution needed to fully embrace modern encryption protocols. As if this weren’t enough, the solutions also enable clients to maintain visibility into the data packets in their public and private cloud environments for monitoring and threat hunting. Most data travelling on networks and in the cloud today is encrypted, but IT organizations have decrypted encryption packets in their data centers for years. However, following new protocols and the adoption of cloud computing, it has become increasingly complex and costly to decrypt incoming traffic that is encrypted. The result is many organizations now choosing to fly blindly into potential security issues without the means to see and protect network traffic from anomalies, threats, or anything else of a malicious nature. This is where Nubeva comes in. The firm’s solutions solve the dilemma of decrypting traffic in both public and private cloud environments. Technically brilliant, the team at Nubeva created the industry’s first, patent- pending, cloud-native universal TLS decryption solution for real-time, historical, or on-demand decryption needs. Nubeva TLS Decrypt, the firm’s solution, is an out-of-band solution that performs decryption at scale whilst supporting new TLS 1.2 and 1.3 security protocols, legacy protocols, and ciphers. The Symmetric Key Intercept Architecture enables users to decrypt and inspect the details of each packet coming in and out of critical workloads, or from storage without bottlenecks, and without placing data at risk by sending decrypted packets over the wire. Put simply, Nubeva restores visibility, and enables end-to-end security. Serving a wide range of clients, the firm caters primarily to large and medium businesses who have migrated resources from traditional data centers to public and private cloud environments. Many Nubeva clients including those in the healthcare and financial industries also face compliance and regulatory security demands. Whilst there are a variety of advantages for IT teams to move apps and resources to the cloud, including cost-effectiveness and scalability, the one key disadvantage is that cloud users have to be responsible for their own data security. With the help of Nubeva, security teams can now more easily determine how to ensure their resources in the cloud remain secure and protected from threats, malware, hacking attempts, and other bad actors. The advantages of Nubeva’s platform are clear. Firstly, there is no man-in-the-middle setup, which reduces cost and improves performance. Secondly, decryption happens at the tools security analyst already use, know and trust – enabling those tools to see clear text of the selected packets. This means compliance is easier and network architectures remain flexible. By using session keys for each packet, Nubeva TLS Decrypt preserves original end-to-end encryption within the user’s environment. Security in the public cloud should be available everywhere, and for everyone. That is what Nubeva offers, ensuring that every company can experience the benefits of moving resources to public clouds without sacrifice to encryption and visibility. Cloud technology is cost-effective and collaborative, leading to more efficient and cost-effective operations. Having visibility to this network traffic is vital for every company, and Nubeva makes it possible. IT and security teams can now have access, visibility, and control over their data whenever and wherever they need it. Many IT organizations hesitate to fully leverage the benefits of the cloud because of concerns around security and visibility. Nubeva and the Nubeva TLS Decrypt solution restores visibility of data will maximizing modern encryption protocols. By working with Nubeva and taking full advantage of the TLS decryption solution it has created, organizations can maximize their cloud presence as the world continues its digital shift. Through sustained innovation and exceptional solutions from Nubeva, the benefits of public and private cloud will continue to be realized by organizations around the globe.
