Google Cloud and Thales are joining forces to give organizations more control over their encryption keys â and sensitive data. (Originally appeared on Flickr by brionv/CC BY 2.0) In an agreement that will compel quicker migration of sensitive data between public clouds, private clouds and private IT infrastructure, Thales and Google Cloud will collaborate on new features that give organizations more control over their encryption keys â and their data. âA security team that properly manages the entire lifecycle (creation, rotation, versioning, backup, deletion) of their encryption keys truly has ownership of their sensitive data, no matter where it exists,â Todd Moore, vice president of encryption solutions at Thales, told SC Media. âThis is especially true for data that has heightened compliance and sovereignty data security requirements.â
