Welcome to Cloud Confidence
with CityDefend Searchable Encryption-as-a-Service (SEaaS)
While the market for highly scalable and flexible cloud computing resources has grown exponentially in recent years, confidence in the ability to protect data stored in the cloud has evaporated. Partial solutions using old generation encryption have left businesses either unable to use their data or exposed to financial and reputational risk – forcing them into a trade-off between accessibility and security.
How then do you leverage the undeniable advantages that come with the cloud economy, whilst ensuring security for confidential or sensitive data is both robust and flexible?

Partial solutions using old generation encryption have left businesses either unable to use their data or exposed to financial and reputational risk – forcing them into a trade-off between accessibility and security.
How then do you leverage the undeniable advantages that come with the cloud economy, whilst ensuring security for confidential or sensitive data is both robust and flexible?
Until now, there has been the need for an uneasy trade off between security and accessibility. How do you keep confidential or sensitive data safe in the cloud without layering it behind multiple levels of protection that inhibit your ability to interrogate and access that data effectively?
CityDefend’s SEaaS is the answer that the Cloud Economy has been waiting for. Robust security and instant accessibility that will enable organisations of all types by giving them the confidence that data will remain safe without any compromise or significant impact on their ability to leverage what is their most valuable asset.
Within a few short years, it is estimated that there will likely be double the number of IOT devices accessing cloud data than there are people doing so today. This, alongside the inevitable growth in traditional applications, will stretch the efficiency and scalability of the underlying cloud infrastructure like never before.
Efficiency and scalability will be a constant challenge in the new Cloud Economy. Any solution that can free up space whilst performing a vital function will be a great asset. CityDefend’s SEaaS will secure your data with a minimal infrastructure footprint and almost zero impact on network latency, allowing for the most efficient use of IT resource and scalability on demand.
The best solutions always combine control with simplicity, and this is true with CityDefend’s SEaaS. Powerful data encryption functionality at the back end, with a simple and intuitive document and rights management interface at the front ensure effective control of both assets and user privileges.
Not only will SEaaS release the shackles of cloud innovation by removing the perennial issue of data security, it will do so in an affordable way. No longer will expansion of capability require the capital outlay and risk that historically come as part of such a project. By deploying SEaaS you will release space historically used for secure data storage to deliver pro-active benefits across your organisation.
Moving data security out of the CAPEX column and into OPEX will have obvious benefits on the financial stability of your organisation, whilst at the same time delivering the confidence in Cloud adoption that you need for effective growth.

“Our recent collaboration was focused towards the design and development of single-keyword and multi-keyword Searchable Encryption schemes. We were successfully able to implement and deploy the schemes on BT Alpha Cloud testbed. We are especially thankful to the team at City, University of London for helping us showcase this work at the BT Innovation Week.”

“We worked with Rajarajan and his team at City, University of London for an Innovate UK project concerning Privacy Preserving Speech Processing in the Cloud. The project had the ambitious aim to develop encrypted processing of speech and Rajarajan and his team’s expertise were instrumental in helping us to plot a course through this new and challenging field. The project was a great success, culminating in a patent for Searchable Encryption applied to Speech Transcripts on the Cloud.”
