VTT, the Technical Research Centre of Finland, was founded 70-years ago, and Envault Corporation would like to send our warmest greetings for achieving this respectable milestone.
VTT is also the birthplace of Envault Corporation, from where we did spin-off nearly 5-years ago.
Envault Releases version 5.0 2011-11-11.
The release contains lots of small improvements on the version 4.7, but most of all introduces Envault Suite; the integration of the Envault Email Protection, CD/DVD Protection, Disc and Removable Media Protection in to a powerful protection suite.
At the same time the Envault Email Protections was updated with new features including usability improvements, enhanced control and more features on third-party-interface.
HELSINKI 19 August 2011: Envault announces new end-to-end Email Encryption solution
Running the same zero click user experience
The Envault Email Encryption integrates seamlessly with your MS Outlook 2007/2010 client and allows sending and receiving encrypted emails without any extra clicks. It utilizes the same smart, password-free encryption technology as other solutions in the Envault lineup.
Powerful and versatile: Encrypt full message or just the attachments
Envault gives you the possibility to use the body text as an unencrypted cover letter – or if you want to, you can encrypt the body text as well. Desired security policy can be enforced in MS Active Directory, or you can let the user decide.
Works everywhere and on every device, recipient needs no software
Envault can send the email as a https link to those recipients that do not have Envault software – allowing you to access the secure message on any computer or smartphone.
Control and visibility like never before – and undo button
You can define for how long and how many times the Envault encrypted email can be accessed – and you can see when the recipient has read it – no longer guessing whether your offer or contract has been opened. What’s more – if you accidentally send your message to unintended recipients, you can cancel the message anytime.

According to Wired magazine, Dropbox, the popular online storage system, has “deceived users about the security and encryption of its services, putting it at a competitive advantage, according to an FTC complaint filed Thursday by a prominent security researcher“.
With Envault’s unique encryption technology such security breaches can be easily and effectively eliminated – Envaulted data is stored only in an encrypted and incomplete form in the cloud service, and you can decide who where and when can access the data by controlling the missing pieces of information. (Read more about Envault Cloud Security.)
The Wired article goes on: “The FTC complaint charges Dropbox (.pdf) with telling users that their files were totally encrypted and even Dropbox employees could not see the contents of the file. Ph.D. student Christopher Soghoian published data last month showing that Dropbox could indeed see the contents of files, putting users at risk of government searches, rogue Dropbox employees, and even companies trying to bring mass copyright-infringement suits.
Soghoian, who spent a year working at the FTC, charges that Dropbox “has and continues to make deceptive statements to consumers regarding the extent to which it protects and encrypts therir data,” which amounts to a deceptive trade practice that can be investigated by the FTC.”

Envault Corporation Ltd
Press release May 3, 2011
Envault Corporation Oy, a next-generation company from Vantaa, Finland, has signed a distribution agreement with Aegeus I.T. in the United States. The agreement marks a significant opening for Envault Corporation in a new market area. Aegeus I.T., located in Atlanta, Georgia, offers its clients innovative next-generation encryption technologies which enable centralized security access management with a focus on Data Loss/Leakage Prevention. The company serves clients in the United States and Canada, and has one of the most innovative digital marketing distribution networks in the United States.
As a result of lengthy development work, Envault Corporation has developed a patented encryption technology, and is now planning to expand its business operations on the basis of this technology by making use of the Aegeus I.T. distribution network. In 2010, the company grew in multiples compared to the previous year. At present, Envault has two global distributors, in the Baltic region and Costa Rica. Since establishing itself as a spin-off company from VTT (Technical Research Center of Finland) in 2007, Envault has achieved a leading market position in the data-centric encryption technology market in Finland. For example, Envault Corporation has been ranked on the Red Herring list as one of the best and most innovative companies in Europe.
”We are happy with our new, major distribution partnership, because so far our partner network has consisted of relatively small sales office partnerships. Our new partner is run by experienced sales professionals who have a track record of selling encryption and security solutions to large enterprises. We will continue to build our channel strategy. Our goal is to draw in new large-scale and middle-sized clients ranging from government institutions to healthcare and companies dealing with delicate or confidential information. In the United States, our business operations are supported by strict regulations on data security. Based on market surveys, we expect the first year to yield positive results, with substantial sales,” states Jörgen Jansson, CEO of Envault Corporation Ltd.
”We believe that the data protection solutions offered by Envault Corporation will become widely used in American companies and public administration through our distribution, and help our clients to become compliant and to protect themselves from data leakage. Our clients appreciate compliance enabling technology that is cost effective to implement while being transparent to end users. Through Envault’s solution customers can be certain that confidential information remains safe, even when exchanged between trusted partners. As a result, there is no risk of the information leaving the enterprise,” says Kathy Massey, President of Aegeus I.T.
In February 2011, the University of California in San Diego published a study that received much publicity in the media. According to the results, erasing the contents of flash-based SSD disks is problematic, and SSD disks are not recommended for business purposes due to their weak data security level, at least not without high-end encryption methods suitable for companies. The patented technology of Envault Corporation easily provides data security and efficiency and does not require erasing or sanitizing the disks in a complicated fashion as existing solutions in the market do today.
The study is available: http://www.usenix.org/events/fast11/tech/full_papers/Wei.pdf

About Envault Corporation:
Envault Corporation helps enterprises and government agencies to protect their confidential data against leaks. The company was founded in 2007 and is based in Helsinki-Vantaa, Finland. Envault is owned by private persons and VTT, the Technical Research Centre of Finland. Our customers are high-end expert organizations ranging from military and healthcare to large enterprises handling highly sensitive and/or confidential information. The more users and the more sites your organization has, the more value Envault’s unique approach brings to your organization in daily use. www.envaultcorp.com
About Envault Technology:
The innovative Envault encryption technology represents the next generation of data protection, as the access control is based on centralized key management instead of end-user passwords. The data protection itself is also fully automatic, which means that end-users do not need to decide whether a document should be protected or not. This way the technology is able to minimize or completely eliminate the possibility of human error. The protection is always in use and data cannot leak to outsiders by accident. Envault also gives the organization the possibility to remotely manage its data: Envaulted documents can be uniquely suspended or deleted, without any connection to the storage device the document resides on. All accesses to organization’s data – who has read or written a file – can also be tracked from audit logs and reports.
About Aegeus I.T.
Aegeus I.T. is a cloud-based company devoted to providing innovative and intelligent encryption technologies that deliver strong security without overhead and intrusion on its users and with the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) ever offered in the Data Lost Prevention market segment. www.aegeusit.com

Lehdistötiedote 3.5.2011
Vantaalainen salauspalveluja tarjoava kasvuyritys Envault Corporation Oy on solminut Yhdysvalloissa jälleenmyyntisopimuksen Aegus I.T.:n kanssa. Sopimus merkitsee Envault Corporationille merkittävää päänavausta uudelle markkina-alueelle. Atlantassa, Georgian osavaltiossa sijaitseva Aegus I.T. tarjoaa asiakkailleen innovatiivisia pilvipohjaisia salauspalveluja, jotka mahdollistavat keskitetyn pääsynhallinnan. Sillä on asiakaskuntaa Yhdysvalloissa ja Kanadassa, ja se on yksi innovatiivisimmista digitaalisen markkinoinnin taitavista jälleenmyyntiyrityksistä Yhdysvalloissa.
Pitkän kehitystyön tuloksena Envault Corporation on kehittänyt patentoidun salausteknologian, johon perustuvia liiketoimintoja se aikoo kasvattaa nyt hyödyntämällä jälleenmyyntiverkostoa. Vuonna 2010 sen liikevaihto kasvoi yli 3 000 prosenttia verrattuna edellisvuoteen. Sillä on tällä hetkellä kaksi jälleenmyyjä maailmanlaajuisesti: Baltiassa ja Costa Ricassa. Se irtaantui spin-off-yrityksenä VTT:stä vuonna 2007 ja on saavuttanut johtavan markkina-aseman alansa tietokeskeisillä salaustekniikkamarkkinoilla Suomessa. Envault Corporation on rankattu mm. Red Herringin listauksessa Euroopan parhaiden ja innovatiivisimpien yritysten joukkoon.
”Olemme tyytyväisiä uudesta, suuren luokan jälleenmyyntikumppanuudesta, koska tähän asti kumppaniverkostomme on koostunut suhteellisen pienistä myyntitoimistokumppanuuksista. Nyt saimme kumppaniksemme alan tunnettujen henkilöiden vetämän suuren yhtiön. Jatkamme edelleen kanavastrategian rakentamista. Tavoitteemme on saada uusia suuria ja keskisuuria asiakkaita valtionhallinnosta terveydenhuoltoon ja yrityksiin, jotka käsittelevät arkaluontoista tai luottamuksellista tietoa. Liiketoimintaamme tukevat Yhdysvalloissa tiukat säädökset tiedon turvaamisesta. Markkinakartoitusten perusteella odotamme heti ensimmäiseltä vuodelta positiivista tulosta ja myynnin ylittävän miljoonan dollarin rajan”, sanoo Envault Corporation Oy:n toimitusjohtaja Jörgen Jansson.
“Uskomme, että Envaul Corporationin salausratkaisut leviävät jälleenmyyntimme kautta yhdysvaltalaisyritysten ja julkishallinnon käyttöön sekä auttavat asiakkaitamme suojautumaan tietovuodoilta maailman kehittyneimmän, salasanattoman ja keskitetysti hallitun salaustekniikan avulla. Asiakkaamme arvostavat Envaultin nopeasti käyttöön otettavaa salausteknologiaa, koska se ei tuo loppukäyttäjälle uusia salasanoja. Asiakkaat voivat varmistaa, että luottamukselliset tiedot pysyvät salausratkaisujen avulla turvassa myös, kun niitä vaihdetaan luotettujen kumppanien kesken, eikä synny riskiä, että tiedot ajautuisivat ulkopuolisille”, sanoo Aegus I.T.:n toimitusjohtaja Kathy Massey.
Helmikuussa 2011 San Diegossa sijaitseva Kalifornian yliopisto julkaisi laajaa mediajulkisuutta saaneen tutkimuksen (22.1.2011), jonka tulokset osoittavat, että Envault Corporationin holvaus- eli salausmenetelmällä on kysyntää Pohjois-Amerikan markkinoilla. Tulosten mukaan flash-muistia käyttävien SSD-kiintolevyjen sisällön tuhoaminen on ongelmallista, ja SSD-levyjä ei siis voi suositella yrityskäyttöön sen heikon tietoturvallisuustason takia, ainakaan ilman yritystasoista salauskäytäntöä. Envault Corporationin patentoitu teknologia poistaa tämän kiintolevyn tyhjennys- eli sanitointitarpeen helposti, tietoturvallisesti ja tehokkaasti.
