Tokenization and Encryption

StrongKey’s Tokenization and Encryption module is designed to protect sensitive application-level data such as personal account numbers (PANs), personally identifiable information (PII), and payment credentials. It uses advanced cryptographic techniques to ensure data privacy and regulatory compliance, making network breaches irrelevant by securing data before it enters the system 

Features

• Tokenization: Converts sensitive data into random, non-sensitive tokens that are useless if stolen.
• Application-Level Encryption: Encrypts data before it reaches the database, ensuring no unencrypted data is stored.
• Cryptographic Key Management: Includes ANSI DUKPT and Base Derivation Key (BDK) support.
• Strong Authentication: Integrates FIDO2 for passwordless access.
• PKI Management: Offers secure key and certificate handling with onboard root CA and HSM.

Capabilities

• Complies with GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS standards.
• Supports symmetric and asymmetric key management.
• Enables end-to-end encryption for “card-present” transactions.
• Integrates with databases, payment gateways, and POS terminals.
• Offers hardware-based cryptoprocessors (TPM or HSM) for secure key storage.

Benefits

• Regulatory Compliance: Accelerates PCI DSS compliance (e.g., rendering PAN unreadable, protecting keys).
• Security Assurance: Prevents insider and outsider threats by never storing cleartext data.
• Scalability: Suitable for startups to central banks.
• Cost Efficiency: Flat-fee pricing with no per-user or transaction costs.
• Flexibility: Available for on-premises, cloud, or hybrid environments.
