Protect sensitive data, everywhere it lives

Encryption and controls for modern data environments

Data Protection Services (DPS) delivers enterprise-grade data protection and encryption solutions designed to safeguard sensitive information across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments. We help organisations reduce risk, protect customer data, and meet regulatory obligations by applying strong cryptographic controls consistently across the data lifecycle.

Why data protection and encryption matter

Sensitive data remains a primary target for cyber attacks and a key focus for regulators. When data is unencrypted or poorly controlled, breaches can result in significant financial loss, reputational damage, and regulatory consequences.

DATA-AT-REST ENCRYPTION

Protect stored data with strong
enforceable encryption.

Data-at-rest encryption ensures sensitive data remains protected wherever it is stored, across databases, applications, file systems, and cloud storage. DPS delivers enterprise-grade encryption and tokenisation solutions that reduce breach impact, support compliance, and protect data even if systems are compromised.

Our capabilities include:
Database and storage encryption
Transparent encryption with minimal application change
Tokenisation and format-preserving encryption
Encryption for cloud and containerised environments
APPLICATION DATA PROTECTION

Secure sensitive data inside applications, and business processes.

Application-level data protection applies encryption and controls directly where sensitive data is created, processed, and used. DPS helps organisations protect high-risk data fields and business logic without relying solely on perimeter or storage-level controls.

Our capabilities include:
Field-level and application-integrated encryption
Role-based access enforcement
Protection for customer, financial, and regulated data
Support for custom and commercial applications
DATA PROTECTION GATEWAYS

Apply encryption and access controls without re-engineering applications.

Data protection gateways allow organisations to enforce encryption and policy controls centrally, reducing development effort and operational complexity. DPS uses gateway-based approaches to extend strong data protection across legacy and modern environments consistently.

Our capabilities include:
Centralised policy-driven encryption
Reduced application code changes
Support for legacy systems and modern platforms
Consistent access and key usage controls
CLOUD, HYBRID & MULTI-CLOUD SUPPORT

Consistent data protection across modern architectures.

Modern environments span multiple platforms and providers. DPS ensures encryption, key management, and access controls remain consistent and enforceable across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments.

Our capabilities include:
Public and private cloud encryption
Hybrid and multi-cloud architectures
Container and Kubernetes support
Integration with third-party platforms and services
