The reported US Treasury Department and US Commerce Department hacks should come as no surprise. Defending the perimeter does not work and will never work because there is too much attack surface to defend. The U.S. government cyber security spending was estimated at approximately $19 billion for 2020. Total

We currently live in the era of incessant cyber attack and eroding digital trust. According to Gallup, more Americans are worried about cybercrime than violent crime. Privacy regulation and enforcement are spreading. In 2022, IDC forecasts that security related spending will be $133.8 billion. This spending will mostly be

Today, public cloud growth rates are sky high. Gartner says the global market for public cloud services will be worth $302 billion by 2021. Will this growth continue, or will enterprise cloud adoption be derailed because of asymmetric data security and privacy risk? Cloud providers have spent billions to secure

As in payments, cloud, and other emerging platform opportunities, Craxel’s ability to securely organize information at massive scale can enable an unprecedented level of digital trust.  To drive growth of the digital economy, three things are non-negotiable; information must be 1) safe, 2) accessible, and 3) trustworthy at incredible

What if the cloud became the safest place for enterprises and consumers to store their information?  How could that be possible, given that software in the cloud has the same vulnerabilities as software deployed on-premises?  While cloud vendors may argue that the cloud is safer since they spend heavily to

We believe that our technology will ultimately power the digital economy by making it safer, easier, and more efficient for every person and enterprise to organize, find, and exchange information or value. Revolutionizing the Way Information Is Managed Craxel’s breakthrough in high performance searchable encryption will revolutionize the way

While protecting your privacy may seem hopeless given the complexity and insatiable cost to protect today's IT systems, there is a revolution in cryptography underway that will enable your information to be organized and exchanged with unprecedented security and privacy. In 2008, the Bitcoin paper was published, ushering in the

In Part 1, we showed how Craxel's Digital Trust Platform can provide the fundamental security, privacy, granularity, scalability, and low latency data services required to provide self-sovereign identity to every person on the planet. As outlined in Part 1 [https://blog.craxel.com/data-security-and-your-identity-why-we-care/], our workflow is uniquely enabled by

There is no dispute that the digital economy requires a new approach to protecting individual user data. Digital trust continues to erode as we see daily news reports of organizations failing to keep information safe. Emerging technologies like blockchain and distributed ledger are being viewed as potential solutions for securely

We are looking for entry level software engineers for our engineering team in Chantilly, Virginia. This is a rare opportunity to join a team where everyone is passionate and on a mission to make the digital world a safer place. The erosion of digital trust is on everyone's mind and

May 25, 2018, the deadline for compliance with GDPR, is getting close. Given the recent discourse in the media around control of personal data, we thought GDPR was the perfect topic to cover in a post about data security. GDPR is exactly the type of regulation that raises questions around

Today, we announced a partnership with Valkyrie Intelligence, the leader in artificial intelligence (AI) services and machine learning R&D. The purpose of this partnership is to solve the key trust and performance issues facing demanding AI use cases in areas such as IoT, smart cities, Fintech, and autonomous cars.

This week we read about newly discovered critical vulnerabilities in most modern microprocessors. These vulnerabilities impact a large number of products, including servers and cloud infrastructure. Why should we all care? This flaw means that programs can bypass the security barriers inside of microprocessors and steal information from other programs

Today's databases will become obsolete sooner than anyone realizes. They have a fatal flaw that new technology can now remedy. Databases can't protect our information because they can only index and search it while it is in a vulnerable state. Neither encryption at rest nor transport layer encryption solve this

Bitcoin's blockchain is a fascinating technology. The creator(s) wanted to create a crypto currency that is immune to government censorship.Using a very clever application of cryptography (Proof of Work) they managed to create an amazing store of value supporting "trustless and immutable transactions". The promise of trustless exchange

Craxel sets a new standard for establishing and maintaining digital trust. We deliver transformational digital trust to our customers. That sounds great, but what does that mean? Everyone knows that IT is too complex and has too much attack surface to keep information safe from a determined attacker. We can

Protecting information by compartmentalizing it and limiting access to those with a need to know has long been an important security practice. The logic behind it is sound. If one compartment is breached because a user's credentials were stolen or an insider decides to steal the information, every other compartment

Although virtual data rooms are becoming more popular, most collaboration between companies and their auditors, law firms, and other service providers is through email and email attachments. It is rather stunning how much valuable information is vulnerable inside corporate email systems. The Black Forest Digital Trust Platform can provide a

Researchers have been studying searchable encryption for years, looking for the breakthrough that would make it practical enough to be widely adopted. It is well understood that the ability to search encrypted data without decrypting it and without the keys being present would be revolutionary for data security. Unfortunately, previous

Black Forest Digital Trust Platform™ delivers the enterprise trust layer that drives digital transformation. Our breakthroughs in high performance searchable encryption safeguard your information while making it usable, valuable, and quickly accessible; relying solely on cryptography for trust. Our zero knowledge approach transforms the enterprise data layer into a powerful
