THE PROBLEM
Delivering ‘Verifiable Trust’ across the Defence Supply Chain
Market
Health, finance and the Defence supply chains are vulnerable cyber security points. Protection, visibility, and true control of shared sensitive data is not currently possible at the supply chain level. It is a major risk and issue for global Defence sectors as well as any sector which shares sensitive data outside its enterprise protected enclaves.
Why Now
Australia is investing over AUS$270 billion into the Australia Defence sector over the next decade. Major “Enterprise” level initiatives require IP collaboration and data sharing amongst Primes, SMEs and Government agencies as well as significant export control management and governance.
Recent events have highlighted how even large organisations, such as those in telecommunications, health and finance, can be vulnerable.
All Data – Even as it Changes and Grows
Unstructured data is data that is not stored in a structured database format. Most sensitive data shared in the Defence Supply Chain is unstructured. Unstructured data includes engineering design files, sensor data, source code, office files, project management files, videos.
Sensitive data is growing and replicating throughout the supply chain journey. SMEs store copies of shared files, edit and create new files containing sensitive information related to the project. Primes and IP owners need verification that these files are continuously protected from loss or unauthorised access, tracked, and disposed of at the end of the project.
GUARDWARE SOLUTION
GuardWare will solve the problem of securing unstructured sensitive data.
GuardWare’s cybersecurity products, GuardWare PROTECT and GuardWare OVERSIGHT, address key vulnerabilities as sensitive files flow, replicate and are created throughout the supply chain.
Benefits:
- File-Based, Persistent and Transparent Encryption of Any File Type: All sensitive unstructured data in SMEs can be protected, not just office documents as in competing
- SME Practical Design: SMEs can work with the protected unstructured data seamlessly without operational impact or IT support.
- Support for Contractual KPIs: The discovery, tracking and destruction of unstructured sensitive data is automated and recorded to meet contractual KPIs on the same. This includes not just shared data but any new data that is created as part of the project by the suppliers.
- Verifiable Trust and Control: IP Owners and Primes never lose control or oversight of their data anywhere in the supply chain. The visibility, control, and assurance available to the Prime and IP Owner extends down to the user / pc level within the SME.
- Immediate Interdiction: IP Owners and Primes can stop or grant access to data anywhere and at any time.
