Service, named DataTrustShield
HCLTech in collaboration with American chipmaker Intel has launched a new enterprise data security service, DataTrustShield, to enhance the protection of sensitive information in cloud environments.
HCLTech’s DataTrustShield has been designed to safeguard sensitive information during cloud operations by utilising trusted execution environments such as Intel Trust Domain Extensions (Intel TDX) and Intel Trust Authority, a regulatory filing said.
DataTrustShield leverages Intel’s Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), including Intel Trust Domain Extensions (Intel TDX) and Intel Trust Authority. These technologies provide a secure foundation for protecting data during cloud operations, enabling safe data sharing across platforms while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements. The service also enhances protection for applications and intellectual property.
The solution has been tested on Google Cloud and is expected to expand compatibility with other major cloud providers. It is tailored for organisations that require high-level security in collaborative and operational cloud environments.
HCLTech and Intel emphasize that the offering aligns with zero-trust security principles, a framework that assumes potential risks from both internal and external sources. Zero-trust models are increasingly adopted by organisations to ensure continuous verification of users and devices.
“By harnessing Intel’s advanced technology, the offering secures digital assets and enhances confidence and trust in cloud environments,” said Anand Swamy, EVP & Head of Tech and ISV Ecosystem, HCLTech.
“Our collaboration with HCLTech highlights our commitment to help customers transition to the cloud while maintaining data privacy and adhering to zero trust principles,” said Purnam Sheth, VP/GM of Trust and Security Services, Intel.
