CipherTrust Manager - Essentials Lab

Thales CipherTrust Manager is a central management point for the CipherTrust Data Security Platform. It provides a unified management console that makes it easy to discover and classify data, and to protect sensitive data wherever it resides using a comprehensive set of CipherTrust Data Protection Connectors from Thales.

CipherTrust Manager is available in both virtual and physical form-factors that integrate with FIPS 140-2 validated Thales Luna Network or Cloud HSM, and third-party Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) for securely storing master keys with highest root of trust. These appliances can be deployed on-premises as well as in private or public cloud infrastructures. This allows customers to address compliance requirements, regulatory mandates and industry best practices for data security.

This lab was designed to provide a foundational overview of Thales' CipherTrust Data Security Platform solution. Upon completion of this lab, consider completing both the Thales Database Protection and Transparent Encryption labs to further test and demonstrate CipherTrust Manager's full feature capabilities.
