"We're taking an unprecedented approach to ensuring enterprise encryption without compromise.  PreVeil protects enterprise data through a combination of end-to-end encryption, strong cryptographic keys in place of passwords, and recently patented Approval GroupsTM, which distribute trust among administrators," said Sanjeev Verma, co-founder and Charman, PreVeil. "The four new product features we're launching at Black Hat - e-Discovery, device management, encrypted logs, and an overarching admin console - were developed to protect businesses from the massive breaches that occur all too frequently, while making encryption exceptionally easy to use for employees."



e-Discovery
PreVeil provides end-to-end encryption for employees' emails and files. Yet, at times, due to the demands of litigation or investigations, admins need to access this very data.  Traditional approaches either centralize access privileges with a set of vulnerable administrators, or encrypt end-to-end thus preventing administrators from accessing corporate data. PreVeil cuts through this challenge with its E-Discovery capabilities. In combination with PreVeil's patented Approval Groups™, PreVeil's e-Discovery module enables this level of investigation without creating a single point of failure from privileged admin accounts. This solution requires a pre-defined number of individuals to cryptographically consent before e-Discovery can take place.

Device Management
In a world of BYOD, admins need to have the ability to lock down email accounts and limit access to files on devices that have been lost or stolen. With device management, in the event a device or account is lost or compromised, admins can cryptographically revoke access to specific devices and/or accounts and make them inaccessible by intruders. At the same time, users' emails and files remain intact and are never deleted.


Encrypted Logs
Within PreVeil, every activity is cryptographically logged and digitally signed. This provides organizations with full visibility into user activity, file modifications and related access, key transfers and alike. Logs are fully auditable, encrypted and tamper proof.

Admin Console
The PreVeil Admin Console enables administrators to access the features above in addition. Activities like provisioning and managing user accounts, accessing corporate data when required, and monitoring logs are all seamless. Optional integration with Active Directory will also be available to Enterprises.
