OLYMPIA, Wash., Jan. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Townsend Security today announced that it offers free Not for Resale (NFR) licenses to VMware vExperts for Alliance Key Manager, their FIPS 140-2 compliant encryption key management server (KMS). The NFR license keys are available for non-production use only, including educational, lab testing, evaluation, training, and demonstration purposes. NFR Licenses are available at https://info.townsendsecurity.com/vmware-vexpert-nfr-license.
Alliance Key Manager enables VMware customers to use native vSphere encryption for VMs and vSAN to protect VMware images and digital assets while deploying a secure and compliant key management server (KMS). VMware users can deploy multiple, redundant (HA) key servers as a part of the KMS Cluster configuration for maximum resilience and high availability. The key manager is certified by VMware for use with vSphere version 6.5 and later, and for vSAN version 6.6 and later.
Using the advanced cryptographic permissions in VMware vCenter Server, along with a KMS, VMware users can prevent internal/external threats and protect sensitive workloads. In addition to supporting vSphere encryption of VMs and vSAN, Alliance Key Manager supports application and database encryption deployed in VMware virtual servers.
"We are excited to provide VMware vExperts with Alliance Key Manager, our encryption key management server (KMS) for their test labs," said Patrick Townsend, CEO of Townsend Security. "Protecting sensitive data continues to be a critical concern in IT, and an important part of both security and compliance efforts. Data-at-rest encryption options in vSphere are comprehensive and very easy to use. Alliance Key Manager seamlessly integrates with VMware's encryption capabilities."
Townsend Security is a VMware Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) and Alliance Key Manager for VMware has achieved VMware Ready status.
