Dropbox Welcomes CipherCloud as Premier Partner

PRESS RELEASE — SAN JOSE, CA–(Marketwired – Jan 12, 2017) – CipherCloud, a leader in cloud security and governance, today announced it has been named a Premier Partner in the Dropbox Technology Partner Program. CipherCloud’s industry-leading Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) will provide security and privacy for critical enterprise data that is shared and stored in Dropbox.

As enterprises continue to adopt a wide range of cloud storage and collaboration applications such as Dropbox, they face a new set of challenges meeting compliance, data privacy and data residency requirements. CipherCloud supports the collaboration and communication benefits of Dropbox by ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive and regulated data such as credit card numbers, healthcare information, or intellectual property. In addition, CipherCloud seamlessly integrates with Dropbox to prevent leaks of sensitive information with cloud data loss prevention (DLP), cloud malware detection, and comprehensive reporting.

The CipherCloud CASB platform delivers a consistent layer of visibility, data loss prevention, sharing controls and end-to-end encryption, across a wide range of enterprise clouds. CipherCloud’s unique Active Encryption provides selective, policy-based protection for sensitive files, maintaining customer-controlled protection to the endpoint. Authorized users can access encrypted files through the CipherCloud app, while access can be remotely revoked if a device is compromised.{ad}
