Akoura - The information security provider of choice The following unique characteristics set our technology apart, and establish Akoura as the information security provider of choice.

Strong Authentication Akoura products authenticate individuals using strong authentication. Protected information can be accessed only by those individuals who are authorized to do so.

Plausible Cover Akoura’s information protection technology doesn’t simply encrypt data; it makes it invisible. Akoura technology obfuscates the sensitive information inside existing files. The new file that has the same attributes as the original file is called a Plausible Cover. This layer of protection prevents an unauthorized user from identifying the information as being sensitive in the first place.

Super-Key Technology In contrast to Standards based symmetric key encryption that uses 128, 256 and sometimes even 512 bit keys, Akoura’s technology uses keys that are so long,  that they might be called “super keys”. Typically Akoura products can use keys that are as big as 8,192 bits. This enables Akoura products to use biometric templates directly as keys and eliminate infrastructure.  Generally, the longer the key the more resistant it is to brute forcing. 

Identity Management Akoura products integrate with most widely-used identity management technologies, allowing enterprises to leverage their existing security investment.

No Infrastructure Akoura products perform all encryption, de-encryption, and authentication tasks on the host device at the perimeter of the network, as documents are being created, stored, sent, and accessed. There are no new servers or infrastructure to be installed and maintained, and no additional server software. Akoura products run on your network today, with no additional infrastructure required.

Fast, Low-Cost Deployment and Operation Akoura products install quickly and easily. Once installed, Akoura products require minimal if any administration or support, and add no burden or headcount to your IT organization.
