Confidencial Advanced Data Protection

Confidencial provides data-centric security solutions built on patented technology originally developed under DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) for the U.S. Department of Defense. The technology was incubated at SRI International and spun out as a commercial company in 2021. The company's core approach focuses on securing data itself rather than perimeter defenses, automatically protecting information at the time of origination or ingestion.

The company's flagship product, Cloud Protector DSPM (Data Security Posture Management), enables organizations to protect sensitive documents and unstructured data through encryption and privacy-enhancing techniques. The solution addresses data protection requirements for regulatory compliance, including Executive Order 14117 for cross-border data sharing restrictions, HIPAA for healthcare data, and various encryption-at-rest requirements.

Confidencial's technology enables privacy-preserving data sharing while preventing large-scale compromise. The platform provides automated data risk assessments, asset inventory maintenance, and selective encryption capabilities that allow organizations to control access and drive collaboration without manual complexity. The company holds ISO 27001:2022 certification, maintains HIPAA compliance, and provides SOC attestation reports.

The company serves organizations across multiple industries that need to secure sensitive documents and manage unstructured data. Their approach integrates with existing security and compliance stacks to enhance capabilities around log analytics, risk assessment, and data protection controls.
