## What does Fortanix do?

Fortanix provides a unified data security platform that protects sensitive data across on-premises and multi-cloud environments. The company pioneered Confidential Computing technology, which enables applications and AI workloads to run entirely within secure hardware enclaves—isolated, tamper-proof environments that protect data in use, in addition to at rest and in transit.

The Fortanix Armor platform includes several integrated components: Key Insight for cryptographic discovery and risk assessment, Data Security Manager for encryption and key management, Confidential Computing Manager, and Armet AI. The platform supports post-quantum cryptography algorithms including LMS, XMSS, ML-KEM, and ML-DSA. PQC Central, a feature within Key Insight, helps organizations assess quantum computing risks and plan migration to quantum-resistant cryptography.

Fortanix enables organizations to maintain control over their encryption keys through a Bring Your Own Key Management System (BYOKMS) approach, allowing customers to store and manage keys in their own data centers rather than relying on cloud provider key management systems. This addresses compliance requirements for regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and PCI DSS.

The company serves enterprises and government agencies across industries including healthcare, banking, financial services, fintech, manufacturing, and federal government. Fortanix holds SOC, ISO, PCI DSS, and FIPS certifications.
