Baffle Data Protection is a commercial database security solution by Baffle. Privicore Data Control Layer is a commercial encryption solution by Privicore. Features, integrations, deployment and the company behind each one, side by side.
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
Best for: Cloud teams protecting data in AWS Lambda and serverless workloads
The trade-off is that Baffle is narrower than platforms like DataSunrise or SecuPi. There is no database activity monitoring, no behavioral analytics, no SQL firewall, and no compliance reporting built in. It is an encryption and tokenization solution, and a good one, but you will need other solutions to cover monitoring and detection. The AWS-centric integration footprint also means teams running primarily on Azure or GCP should verify compatibility before assuming full support. For cloud-native teams, particularly those with serverless workloads on AWS, Baffle is worth a close look.
