Microsoft 365, SharePoint & File Share Encryption Key Management & BYOK

Encryption Key Management & Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) for Microsoft 365, SharePoint Server & File Shares

Data encryption and key management are a core part of any organization’s security and compliance toolbox for protecting Microsoft 365 (M365) and SharePoint data. NC Protect provides the ability to dynamically encrypt Microsoft 365 data in SharePoint Online, Teams and OneDrive, as well as SharePoint Server and File Shares to keep your data protected no matter where it is stored or travels: in use, in motion and at rest.

Out of the box NC Protect adds additional access and data protection capabilities to the standard Microsoft Purview Information Protection and RMS controls that are enabled as part of your Active Directory domain. Combining these Microsoft controls with NC Protect allows you to build-in dynamic and robust encryption and real-time protection of sensitive and business-critical data.

Available as an add on to NC Protect, NC Encrypt provides encryption capabilities out-of-the-box for organizations using NC Protect that prefer to manage their own encryption keys.
