Module description
Vormetric Application Encryption is a library to simplify integrating application-level encryption into existing corporate applications. The application encryption library provides a set of documented standard-based APIs used to perform cryptographic and encryption key management operations. The innovative product design enables developers to choose to standard AES encryption or schema maintaining Format Preserving Encryption (FPE). Vormetric Application Encryption removes the complexity and risk of implementing an in-house encryption and key management solution.
