Unlock the true value of your data

Data. It’s mission-critical to companies. Yet organizations struggle to realize the true value from their data. The reason?
Limitations in data security technologies leave our data exposed. In the cloud. While in use. While being shared.

And it’s these obstacles that put constraints on how businesses can use their data – gain value from it.

Removing these barriers and empowering organizations to truly innovate.

The Sotero Mission
We engineered the Sotero Data Security Platform with breakthrough “data-in-use” encryption – to give organizations the data security they’ve longed for.

To unlock the true value from their data. Open powerful opportunities that previously were unattainable.

And to achieve exceptional business outcomes.
