Singapore, February 17, 2011 -- GuardTime, creator of the patented Keyless Signature™ technology used to validate the world’s data for applications such as secure cloud storage, today announced it has received the 2010 Asia Pacific Frost & Sullivan New Product Innovation Award for Data Integrity Solutions.

"By eliminating the need to utilize secret keys or proprietary algorithms which is widely practiced in competing solutions, GuardTime’s solution ensures data integrity persistently remains intact. Another noteworthy feature of the solution is that it highly leverages of the prowess of Cloud Computing and thus is made available on a global scale. With its strong emphasis on authenticity and availability, GuardTime’s solution could act as an impetus to further impel the steady growth of Cloud Computing in the Asia Pacific region," explains Ahmad Zeffirelli Ibrahim, Research Analyst with Frost & Sullivan’s Technical Insights Practice. "As we approached the end of 2010, we witnessed the numbers of objects being stored in the cloud double from 2009. It is going to be an exciting year to further witness the healthy growth of Cloud Computing as we move through 2011," added Zeffirelli.

"Cloud computing is a subject top-of-mind for most organizations and institutions around the world," said Mike Gault, GuardTime CEO. "Our Keyless Signature technology continues to garner quite a bit of attention from industry analysts, technology and service providers, and security-minded businesses as we have been able to answer the most critical question they have faced to date: how can an organization prove that their data has not been compromised in the cloud."

GuardTime’s Keyless Signature technology provides proof of signing authority, time of the signature, and lifelong integrity for data stored on disk, residing in the cloud, or in transit across networks. The signature never expires and its verification is based solely on mathematics, eliminating the need for secrets or keys and the unwieldy management associated with traditional PKI technologies.
