Overview
Ockam provides secure data access solutions for businesses, focusing on cybersecurity and data management. Their products enable secure communication between applications and databases, allowing enterprises to access private databases without exposing them to the public internet. This is accomplished through encrypted portals that protect data as it moves across networks. For example, Ockam's solution for Kafka streams ensures data authenticity and integrity by encrypting it during transmission. The company operates on a subscription-based model, offering tools like the Ockam Orchestrator for managing secure data access and TCP portals for secure connections to remote servers. Ockam distinguishes itself with a strong emphasis on high uptime and reliability, making it a trusted partner for enterprises that prioritize data security.
