Aarhus, Denmark
What it is
CrystalKey 360 is an API-based control layer for governing cryptography and automating key lifecycles across hybrid environments. It helps organizations manage cryptographic policy, ownership, approvals, and evidence, with logging intended to improve visibility and accountability. API integrations automate key rotation across supported environments. Native data-protection capabilities include tokenization, MACing, data masking, code signing, database encryption, encryption, and decryption. The product is designed to work alongside existing infrastructure and lists integrations with HSMs from Thales, Utimaco, Entrust, and Futurex, as well as AWS, Azure, GCP, other cloud platforms, and supported key stores. Supported key types include AES, 3DES, RSA, EC, and HMAC; external key control is available through BYOK. Identified use cases include consolidating cryptographic estates, shared trust infrastructure, payment-key management, and preparation for algorithm changes and key migration. Platforms include API, Linux, self-hosted, web, and Windows. Pricing is on request; prospective customers can request a demo or use-case discussion.
