Fileshare Proxy Plugin by Portal26 secures unstructured data from ransomware, data breaches, and insider attacks. It integrates with multiple filesharing solutions such as SMB or S3 based File Servers and Cloud Filesharing platforms. Portal26 Data Protection deploys across clouds, on-premise, and hybrid environments. It utilizes NIST FIPS 140-2 validated encryption for both file content encryption as well as file and folder names. Access is logged and monitored, and in the event of an incident, Portal26 can provide audit logs to show data retention encryption. Files written to the fileshare are intercepted by Portal26 and encrypted. It offers BYOK (bring your own key), HYOK (hold your own key), and key control functionality, allowing data owners to keep their data segmented and private, even on the same file server. Portal26 encryption meets stringent data protection standards in major regulations and frameworks. It releases data in nine privacy preserving formats for configuration with downstream systems. Compared to traditional tokenization solutions, Portal26 secures more data while retaining usability. The plugin can be operational within half a day, while the Proxy takes a few days. In attack scenarios, Portal26 provides visibility into any data that was observed, accessed, or exfiltrated.
