HyTrust, was founded by veterans in the enterprise infrastructure and security space who recognised early on not only that virtualisation and the cloud were going to dramatically transform the data center, but also that security would be a critical inhibitor to cloud adoption.

HyTrust’s mission is to mitigate the risk of catastrophic data center failure and data breaches — especially considering the concentration of risk that occurs within virtualised and cloud environments. Organisations can now confidently expand virtualisation to mission critical applications and take full advantage of the cloud.

HyTrust technology has been widely deployed by Global 2000 companies and top government agencies, with strong market presence in financial services, healthcare, and government verticals.

HyTrust is a world-class team of company builders and innovators, that partners with some of the biggest players in the next-generation datacenter: VMware, IBM, Cisco, Intel, Google, Amazon, and In-Q-Tel. With its close location and ties to the Silicon Valley tech community, the HyTrust team values honesty, transparency, diligence, and most of all, delivering quality for our customers.

In January 2021, HyTrust was acquired by Entrust, a global leader in trusted identity, payments, and data protection. The two organisations have come together as a single source for high-assurance data protection, identity and compliance solutions that allow enterprises to encrypt data and enforce security policy across virtualized, public and hybrid cloud environments.

HyTrust is a strategic partner, bringing a unique offering to CoCre8s’ Cloud and Security Solutions.CoCre8 has an extensive set of solutions, from the Edge to the Core to Cloud, and HyTrust is the latest addition which strengthens CoCre8’s overall value proposition.   CoCre8 is very excited about the partnership and recognises the importance of security solutions in today’s world.

Product / Solutions Highlights

Multi-Cloud Workload Security – Powerful Encryption, Policy and Access Control for Virtual and Public, Private and Hybrid Cloud Environments

Ultimate Power – With the coming of products like VMware ESXi, NSX and vSphere, power is concentrated in the hypervisor.

HyTrust CloudControl – Whether you are running VMs in a private cloud powered by vSphere or a public cloud, like IBM Cloud, Microsoft Azure, vCloud Air or AWS, HyTrust DataControl provides strong encryption for virtual machines in any  cloud, along with easy to deploy key management YOU control.

HyTrust DataControl – Delivers complete workload lifecycle, from inception to retirement. It reduces the complexity of protecting workloads across multiple cloud platforms and ensures protection of sensitive data and critical underpinning of cryptographic keys. It further enforces separation of duties across different user personas and facilitates compliance with data privacy.
