SW Developers & Cloud Providers
- Support the CLARUS proxy solution and potentially new, secure-by-design services to their customers as the market moves closer towards security-as-a-service.
Practical Uses
- CLARUS benefits are clearly demonstrated for geospatial data and digital health and can be extended to other uses with tight security, privacy and regulatory requirements.
CISOs, CTOs, CEOs
- Information security professionals can implement privacy-by-design, which ensures users of cloud services are in the driving seat when it comes to controlling their data.
