Thales announces a new data protection capability for Microsoft customers to benefit from the power of the full range of Microsoft 365 applications while protecting sensitive data in the cloud and meeting major data privacy regulations and requirements.

Designed for companies that operate in highly-regulated sectors such as financial services and healthcare, they can now leverage Thales Luna Hardware Security Modules with Double Key Encryption for Microsoft 365 and comply with regulations such as the EU GDPR, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, and the recommendations from the European Data Protection Board following the Schrems II ruling.

The integration of Luna HSMs with Double Key Encryption for Microsoft 365 delivers the protection required to protect highly sensitive data and meet unique regulatory requirements.

"A key part in enabling this to happen though is ensuring they have the best security and compliance solutions when it comes to protecting sensitive data. Our Double Key Encryption integration with Thales enables customers who have enhanced data protection requirements, compliance obligations and regulatory restrictions to protect their highly sensitive information."

This allows customers to protect their most confidential or sensitive data while maintaining control of their encryption keys in the cloud.

"The way we work has changed forever and in order to thrive, businesses have had to increasingly adapt and adopt collaborative applications. The integration of Thales Luna HSMs with Microsoft Double Key Encryption provides businesses with control over their encrypted data, in line with regulatory requirements, regardless of their industry."
