DATA · DATA PROTECTION SOLUTION PROFILE
Plan long-lived confidentiality for email, files, databases, object storage, backups and archives.
CUSTOMER PROBLEM
Email, files, databases and archives often outlive the systems that created them. Confidentiality migration must address recipient onboarding, recovery, rekeying and long-term access.
PRODUCT-SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION FLOW
Enterprise mail, object storage, backup, databases, KMS/HSM and data-governance systems. Data-flow map, key hierarchy, recovery tests and approved retention/re-encryption plan.
Email and attachment protection profiles
S/MIME transition and recipient key management
File, object and database-field encryption
Envelope encryption with HSM/KMS
Backup/archive rekey and recovery
Retention, legal hold and access evidence
NAMED COMPONENTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
The descriptions below state concrete technical behaviour rather than generic support language.
Defines separate profiles for message body, attachments and transport metadata, including where encryption occurs and which mail systems see plaintext.
Plans S/MIME coexistence, recipient onboarding, directory lookup, external-recipient handling and enterprise recovery without shared passwords.
Applies file, object or database-field encryption at the correct application layer and preserves searchable or routing fields only when policy allows.
Uses envelope encryption with HSM/KMS-protected wrapping keys, unique content keys and recorded key version for every protected object or data set.
Rekeys backups and archives through tested restore-and-reencrypt workflows rather than assuming online key rotation changes historical copies.
Maps retention, legal hold, access review, recovery and cryptographic-erasure evidence to the data owner and regulatory obligation.
Enterprise mail, object storage, backup, databases, KMS/HSM and data-governance systems.
Client, format or application components protect data before it reaches shared infrastructure.
Gateways enforce identity and policy while key use or decryption occurs only inside the approved backend boundary.
One data class and transaction path is proven first, then expanded through compatibility and performance gates.
