Officials look to enhance information security statewide

Indianapolis, In. — Safe-T®, a leading provider of software-defined access solutions for the hybrid cloud, announced today that Indiana’s Office of Technology (IOT) has implemented Safe-T’s Software-Defined Access™ solution to securely store and share information across more than ninety state agencies.

Safe-T’s Secure File Access protects government information both in transit and at rest while enforcing advanced authentication policies for the entire network. It provides a unified security solution for all of IOT’s agencies, which is more robust and less costly than having each agency protect their data independently.

IOT successfully utilizes Safe-T’s Software-Defined Access for multiple use cases, such as person-to-person file transfers, secure vault encrypted storage and connectors to Data Loss Protection (DLP) and Anti-Virus Scanners. IOT was able to easily integrate the Safe-T solution with existing platforms to further protect networks without hindering their streamlined security process.

“IOT searched high and low for a security solution that offered a high level of protection while maintaining a user-friendly interface, and Safe-T’s solution addressed all our needs,” said Craig Boyer and Kiszka Ward, at IOT. “By consolidating our data access and exchange solutions, we can reduce our points of failure while improving our cost and labor efficiency.”

“Government agencies are faced with huge challenges as they are becoming targets for high profile cyber-attacks,” said John Parmley, CEO of Safe-T USA. “We are proud to deliver the comprehensive protection IOT needs to protect their citizens’ privacy in the most cost-effective way possible.”
