Back to the Basics of Information Security

BIOWRAP focuses on the basics: identify the creator of the information using n-factor authentication; secure the information using strong encryption and hashing techniques; allow the creator to define access and expiration controls; identify the consumer of the information using n-factor authentication; determine the integrity of the information; record all activity.
 
Today's core concepts for Information Security (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability) fail to encompass the business and regulatory requirements for Transparency.  The BIOWRAP service not only secures any digital information for protection at rest as well as in motion, but provides forensic auditing for all activity, including unauthorized attempts to gain access.  This proactive information centric approach eliminates the need for ‘breach notifications’ (as outlined in US State and Federal requirements) as only authorized Readers can access the information, wherever it resides and however they may have received it. 
 
What is BIOWRAP®?
BIOWRAP is a patented data encryption service that leverages the cloud to eliminate the complexities of encryption and offer an immediate impact solution to certify, protect, track and control all types of electronic information, at all times (at rest and in motion).

  • Improved Information Controls: Specify precisely who is authorized to gain access to protected information AND track all activity, including unauthorized access attempts, in real-time.
  • Audit Protection: Enterprise grade Accountability Reports offer detailed and customized reports for all activity associated with your sensitive information.  With BIOWRAP there are no breaches, if someone is not authorized to view the information they will never be able to access it, wherever it may reside and however it may be delivered.

What differentiates BIOWRAP® from other data protection solutions? 
Current market solutions for the protection of digital information, at rest and/or in motion, only address one (1) or few features required to meet the increasing demands for the protection of sensitive consumer, medical and financial information.  The BIOWRAP file encryption solution goes much further by offering an extremely powerful and cost-effective solution to protect, track and control all types of digital information at all times.  In addition, the BIOWRAP encryption service (encryption and decryption) can be integrated in to existing processes, solutions and services.
 
Disk and LAN based data encryption
The most relevant indirect competitors promote disk and LAN based encryption solutions.  This enterprise approach to information governance can be a very costly and IT intensive process that only serves to address lifecycle management and the protection of digital information internally.  Typically these solutions do not offer external access rights management, forensic auditing tools, real-time notifications or expiration management after the digital information leaves the enterprise.  BIOWRAP offers this functionality and ease-of-use at a better price.
 
BIOWRAP®: The BIOWRAP solution serves to protect and account for digital information within the enterprise as well as externally, at rest and in motion.  Setup takes minutes, providing greater functionality, and enterprise grade auditing and reporting that is affordable even for the smallest of companies.  BIOWRAP can also be integrated into existing internal processes and solutions, such as cloud vaulting and secure file delivery, to provide additional corporate governance.
 
           Cloud Data Encryption
Cloud Data Encryption solutions can only be applied to data within specific cloud environments, such as Salesforce. 
 
BIOWRAP®:  The BIOWRAP encryption service can be integrated with any cloud service offering with the availability for encrypted data to be accessible outside the designated public/private cloud service offering.
 
Vaulting
Data stored in a third-party secure online vault is not encrypted.  Limiting regulated vertical markets and enterprises from utilizing this cost-saving service.
 
BIOWRAP®: Individual and corporate accounts will have the option of storing their BIOWRAP encrypted files in their Accountability Report or directing BIOWRAP encrypted files to a hosted vault of their choosing. 
 
Secure File Delivery
Secure File Delivery solutions provide a secure and simplified means for file sharing but do not secure the sensitive information, only the location where the sensitive information is stored. 
 
BIOWRAP®: The BIOWRAP service can be integrated with existing file delivery solutions, such as YouSendIt, to provide the option for customers to have the BIOWRAP Central Service deliver a link to intended recipients.  Currently the responsibility of delivery is on the creator of encrypted file as BIOWRAP encrypted files can be delivered by any electronic means.
 
Email Encryption / Secure Portal
Solutions for securing the transmission of digital information through secure portals or email encryption do not address the origination, certification, security controls and accountability required to meet increasing information security demands.
 
BIOWRAP®: BIOWRAP protects the file(s) however it may be delivered and can be integrated into existing solutions for increased data security and transparency.
 
           Digital Signatures / Watermarking
Digital signatures do not protect the information and can only be applied to specified file types. Available market solutions for the certification of digital information focus on specific file types such as PDF or Microsoft Office;
 
BIOWRAP®: BIOWRAP serves to certify and protect all types of digital information.  Encrypted files are stamped with the level of identity used to create the authoritative unalterable file.  Authorized Readers can determine if they trust the source prior to downloading the native file or running the application. 
 
Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
Enterprise Content Management (ECM) platforms support initiatives for managing the lifecycle of internal documentation.  This enterprise approach to information governance can be a very costly and time intensive process that only serves to protect and account for information within the implemented enterprise. 
 
BIOWRAP®: BIOWRAP encryption and decryption can be integrated in to existing ECM solutions for increased data security and transparency for data internally and externally.
