SPYRUS NcryptNshare(TM) Product Suite Merges FIPS 140-2 Level 3 Validated Hardware, Software, and Management System With Microsoft's Surface Pro for Premier Secure Mobility Solution

SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 23, 2016) - SPYRUS, Inc., a global leader in certified hardware-based security and encryption solutions for enterprise and government markets, today announced the integration of the Rosetta® microSDHC™ PKI and TrustedFlash™, the NcryptNshare product line, and the Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) Surface Pro™ family of mobile computing platforms to encrypt, seal and share enterprise and personal data in enterprise and cloud-based systems. Possessing unprecedented cryptographic robustness and ease of use in Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 environments, NcryptNshare was originally developed to protect classified government data. The Rosetta microSDHC and TrustedFlash secure storage devices in sizes up to 32 GB with 64GB by year end incorporated with an internal FIPS 140-2 Level 3 rated Rosetta Micro Hardware Security Module (HSM) provides a hardware Root of Trust coupled with AES-256 bit secure storage. This unprecedented combination of portability and security is a natural for globally distributed enterprises in defense, homeland security, electronic healthcare, Internet of Things control and critical infrastructure protection and control.

"The challenge facing many enterprise and government organizations is that current mobility software solutions do not adequately protect stored, shared, or transmitted data from being exfiltrated, corrupted by malware or compromised by sophisticated cyberattacks," said Tom Dickens, COO, SPYRUS. "In fact, in cloud environments, critical security functions such as key management and revocation of user privileges are never actually in the hands of the data owner, effectively weakening reliance on trusting the true identity of the owner or the confidentiality of the data. Use of the SPYRUS NcryptNshare applications in conjunction with Microsoft mobility solutions delivers IT organizations a cost-effective way to securely manage critical data in a globally distributed environment, protecting sensitive data from present and future cyber threats while meeting regulatory compliance requirements across all verticals."

The SPYRUS NcryptNshare suite of applications secured by the EAL5+ and FIPS 140-2 Level 3 tamper resistant SPYCOS hardware Root of Trust within the Rosetta microSDHC offers comprehensive security for end-to-end confidentiality, digital signature-based integrity and identity and secure collaboration among dynamically configurable Communities of Interest (COI). NcryptNshare applications supported in this family include RES4Office, RES Pro, and RES Disk with additional solutions for other operating environments in development. RES4Office is an Office 2010, 2013, 2016, and Office 365 desktop application add-on that enables easy to use, encrypt and share WORD, EXCEL, POWERPOINT, VISIO, and PROJECT applications. The owner's digital identity and the confidentiality and integrity of all data stored in are now completely controlled by the data owner and not the enterprise or publicly available cloud service provider. This end-to-end encryption approach allows a customer and their collaboration partners to use one or more shared service providers such as SharePoint or Microsoft, Google, AWS, Box, or DropBox cloud services regardless of the cloud provider's underlying IT infrastructure.
