Empower Your Organization
Hold Your Own Key (HYOK) is a security approach offered by IPS that enables organizations to maintain full control over their encryption keys. Unlike traditional methods where keys are managed by third-party providers, HYOK ensures that you generate, store, and manage your keys independently, minimizing the risk of key exposure and unauthorized access.
Key Benefits of IPS HYOK:
With IPS’s HYOK solution, you can implement robust data protection measures while ensuring compliance with industry regulations. By controlling your encryption keys, you can securely encrypt sensitive data, manage access permissions, and ensure that only authorized personnel can decrypt information. This approach strengthens data security and builds trust among clients and partners.
Ideal for Sensitive Information
HYOK is particularly beneficial for organizations handling sensitive information, such as financial data, personal health information (PHI), or proprietary business data. By choosing IPS for your HYOK strategy, you achieve a higher level of security and confidence in your data protection efforts while retaining control over your critical encryption keys.

Shared Responsibility Model
Cloud security operates under a “shared responsibility model,” where the cloud service provider (CSP) secures the infrastructure, while users safeguard their own data and assets.
Control Your Encryption Keys
IPS offers Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) solutions, empowering organizations to maintain control over their encryption keys while utilizing cloud services. With BYOK, you generate and manage your own encryption keys, ensuring that sensitive data remains secure and compliant with industry regulations, regardless of the cloud environment.
Key Benefits of IPS BYOK:
- Enhanced Data Security: Encrypt your data before it is stored in the cloud, ensuring that only you have access to the decryption keys. This approach minimizes unauthorized access and fortifies your overall data security posture.
- Customizable Access Control: By managing your own keys, you can tailor access permissions to meet your specific needs, protect sensitive information, and retain control over your data in shared environments.
- Ideal for Sensitive Information: BYOK is particularly beneficial for organizations handling confidential data, such as financial records, personal health information (PHI), or proprietary business data.

When it comes to key management, it’s important to understand the critical elements that need to be encrypted. Each key management service has unique configurations, but the essential components typically include:
Key Storage
If a company stores both your encrypted keys and encrypted data, they can potentially access your data. To enhance security, it is widely recommended that key storage and data storage providers remain separate to prevent unauthorized access.
Policy Management
Encryption key policies allow companies to create, revoke, expire, and control the sharing of keys and data. Effective policy management ensures that encryption practices are consistent and secure.
Authentication
Authentication policies are essential for managing who can create, revoke, and expire encryption keys. These policies also control the ability to share keys and data, adding an extra layer of security.
Authorization
Authorization defines the access levels for users based on their roles and responsibilities. Best practices dictate following the principle of least privilege, ensuring users only have access to the data necessary for their duties.
Comprehensive Protection
IPS provides robust encryption solutions for both email and cloud environments, ensuring that sensitive information is protected end-to-end. Our solutions safeguard data in transit and at rest, across all devices and platforms.
Enhanced Data Integrity
With IPS, encrypted data remains secure against unauthorized alterations or manipulations. Our solutions provide clear visibility into data integrity, making it easier to detect any unauthorized changes.
Seamless Integration
Our encryption services integrate smoothly with your existing IT infrastructure. Whether it's Gmail, Outlook, or cloud storage solutions, IPS ensures that encryption is implemented with minimal disruption to your business operations.
Reduced Risk of Breaches
Our encryption services significantly reduce the risk of reputational damage and legal consequences from data breaches. By encrypting your data, IPS helps minimize the impact of potential security incidents and ensures you remain compliant with breach disclosure requirements.
Regulatory Compliance
IPS’s encryption solutions help you meet critical data privacy regulations and standards, including GDPR, HIPAA, and more. We ensure that all sensitive data is encrypted, aiding in regulatory compliance and avoiding potential penalties.
