 Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) 
with an Encryption and Tokenization Gateway

StratoKey is a gateway solution that enables enterprises to secure their entire suite of cloud and SaaS applications. The Cloud Data Protection Platform includes Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) features for governing user access. StratoKey delivers comprehensive capabilities including access control, in-app encryption and tokenization, continuous monitoring, audit trails and flexible policy enforcement.

Unlike many traditional CASBs that rely solely on API or connector-based controls, StratoKey extends these functions with gateway-based encryption and tokenization, ensuring that sensitive data is encrypted or tokenized before it reaches the SaaS application. This prevents the cloud from ever receiving plaintext data, closing the compliance and third-party exposure gap. StratoKey enforces enterprise-grade security policies across all cloud applications.

CASB Benefits of Securing the Cloud

Data Never Leaves Your Control

StratoKey’s gateway-based encryption and tokenization ensure that sensitive data is encrypted before entering any SaaS application — meaning the cloud never holds plaintext. You retain full control of encryption keys and data residency.

Strengthened Compliance Posture

By keeping sensitive data encrypted outside the SaaS provider’s boundary, StratoKey simplifies compliance with frameworks like CMMC, ITAR, HIPAA, GDPR, and FedRAMP, reducing regulatory scope and audit burden.

Unified Security Across All Cloud Apps

StratoKey acts as a single policy enforcement point for all SaaS and cloud services, including NetSuite, Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, ServiceNow, and more, applying consistent access controls, monitoring, and threat prevention.

third-party

Reduced Third-Party and Insider Risk

Even if a SaaS provider or insider account is compromised, tokenized and encrypted data remain unreadable. This arm’s-length protection eliminates exposure from misconfigurations, or vendor breaches.

Data Protection with an Encryption & Tokenization Gateway

StratoKey secures data by selectively encrypting (or tokenizing) sensitive information before it's sent to the cloud application. This encryption ensures that the end cloud application never holds sensitive information in plain text. StratoKey supports group policy based decryption, enabling organizations to directly control data decryption and prevent the inappropriate disclosure of sensitive information. Encryption and tokenization provide organizations with sole control and ownership of their sensitive data.

Identity Aware Authentication

StratoKey sits between enterprise users and end cloud applications securing user access and hardening authentication. By directly interacting with users, StratoKey performs specific identity aware security tasks such as device fingerprinting, geo-locking and security analysis among other measures to ensure that users are exactly who they say they are. StratoKey integrates seamlessly with enterprise systems to ensure that deployment follows an interoperable approach.
  • Integrates with Active Directory (incl. ADFS), OpenID Connect (OIDC), SAML Single Sign-On (SSO), Entra ID, Okta, Ping, OneLogin, Google Authenticator, JumpCloud and Delinea etc.

Cloud Visibility

StratoKey provides live monitoring capabilities that remove the SIEM blind-spot that can be exacerbated by the cloud. A standard feature of StratoKey is serving real-time access logs, user patterns, data consumption, device profiles, geolocations and much more through an complete monitoring interface. This interface provides complete visibility across an organization's entire cloud and SaaS application portfolio.
  • Interoperability with Enterprise SIEM systems: ArcSight, Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, QRadar, LogRythm and SysLog.

Security Analytics

StratoKey compiles security profiles on each user passing through the gateway. These individual user profiles are compiled over time. StratoKey User profiles help gather intelligent insight into use patterns and sensitive data access on an individual level. Tracking access to regulated data and logging (for Audit) encryption and tokenization requests. This data is collated into individual profiles that are a one-to-one audit history.
  • Regulated data access monitoring
  • Historical location information
  • Timing of access
  • Protects against insider threats and misuse.

Security Rule and Policy Enforcement

Being able to detect threats is not enough to prevent data breaches. StratoKey provides specialist security policy enforcement capabilities ensuring that threats are mitigated. StratoKey's security rules and policies are flexible and can respond depending on threat severity, from blocking connections, through to dispatching second factor challenges. StratoKey has an array of security rules that can be configured to meet an organization's data protection policies.
  • Policies for OS/browser/mobile/device, behavioral driven, DLP and more.

Secures the Apps You Use

StratoKey is the only vendor in the Cloud Access Security Broker market that offers a complete solution that is truly cloud and SaaS application agnostic. Through a unique architecture, StratoKey provides the ultimate flexibility for organizations securing their cloud and SaaS portfolio. StratoKey offers encryption, tokenization, monitoring, behavioral analytics and security policy enforcement regardless of the end cloud or SaaS application.

How the Cloud Data Protection Platform Provided CASB with a Difference

Unlike traditional CASBs that focus on monitoring and access control within SaaS environments, StratoKey’s CASB is built as part of its Cloud Data Protection (CDP) Platform, integrating gateway-based encryption and tokenization to protect data before it reaches the cloud. This architecture delivers true data control, not just visibility—ensuring sensitive information remains encrypted, compliant, and outside the SaaS provider’s reach. The result is a CASB that goes beyond detection to provide proactive, compliance-grade data protection across every connected application.

What is a CASB

| May 01, 2025

A CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker) acts as a gateway between users and cloud applications (like Salesforce or ServiceNow), enforcing security and policy controls on both users and data. StratoKey’s approach encrypts or tokenizes content before it ever reaches the cloud, monitors user access, and applies firewall-style controls to prevent unauthorized exposure or misuse.
