Overview

The comforte Data Security Platform provides data discovery, classification, and protection capabilities to ensure compliance with data protection regulations, mitigate data breaches, and enable secure data usage for business applications and analytics.
With over 25 years of IT experience, comforte protects a significant portion of global credit card transactions, employing cutting-edge data protection strategies like tokenization. Trusted by over 500 strategic customers, including Fortune 500 companies like Visa, MasterCard, Shell, and Macy’s, comforte specializes in securing sensitive data such as personally identifiable information (PII) and payment card industry (PCI) data in key industries.

Key Capabilities
End-to-End Data Protection: Comprehensive protection of sensitive data (PII, PCI, or PHI) at-rest, in-motion, and in-use. Focuses on safeguarding the data itself rather than the systems or devices holding it.
Data Discovery & Classification: Locates known or unknown structured and unstructured sensitive data elements, regardless of whether they are at-rest or in-motion. Offers unmatched accuracy with up to 99% false positive tuning.
Deploy Anywhere: Protection nodes seamlessly integrate with applications and data stores, supporting on-premises, cloud, or hybrid IT environments. Deploys up to 10 times faster compared to traditional solutions.
Multiple Protection Methods: Employs a diverse range of data protection techniques, including data masking, format-preserving hashing, tokenization, and (FPE). Enables pseudonymization or full anonymization of data, suitable for (BYOE) strategy.
Flexible Integration Options: Seamlessly connects any data flow, business application, or data store using smart interceptors or powerful APIs supporting multiple languages and scripts.
Comforte’s Data Security Platform provides a customized approach to identify areas of risk strategically and offers tailored data protection solutions to meet compliance requirements, mitigate risks, and ensure business growth in a secure environment. With industry recognition from top analysts like Gartner and Forrester, comforte’s platform is trusted by major enterprises worldwide for its robust security and innovative data protection strategies.

Key Capabilities / Features
