Earlier this month, WinMagic announced the general availability of the new security software solution that provides full enterprise controlled key management and encryption for virtual works load running in public and private IaaS environments, SecureDoc CloudVM. The new offering is a natural extension of WinMagic’s flagship solution, SecureDoc End Point Protection Suite. In an effort to address the growing requests from our customers’ base, particularly now as it relates to security challenges associated with securely storing data in virtual environments, WinMagic makes it easy to encrypt data. Doing so since 1997, the Company has kept a close eye on the rapidly-changing security requirements of enterprises.

One of these enterprise needs relates to the increasing number of organizations migrating to public, private and/or hybrid cloud environments.

These numbers alone have strengthened the case for enterprise customers needing a solution that will secure data stored in public, private and hybrid cloud environments.

Its application aware intelligent key management capability alleviates the problems associated with encryption in the cloud by providing key and policy management for virtualized workloads.
