IronCore Labs SaaS Shield

What it is
IronCore Labs SaaS Shield adds application-layer encryption, data controls, and access visibility to cloud applications, including multi-tenant SaaS products. It uses a separate encryption key for each tenant to help protect data held in shared storage, and deterministic encryption enables exact-match searches over encrypted data. Customers can retain control of their keys, with support for customer-managed configurations and integrations with Thales CipherTrust Manager, Google Cloud Key Management Service, AWS Key Management Service, and Microsoft Azure Key Vault. The Tenant Security Proxy runs as a Docker container in customer infrastructure, and encryption can be connected through proxies or SDKs. Listed storage and search proxies cover Amazon S3, OpenSearch, and Elasticsearch. SaaS Shield supports rotation and re-keying of keys, changes to algorithms and key sizes, and separating key storage from data across cloud providers. The maker describes a design that keeps sensitive data and keys from its view. A free trial covers one tenant; Pro starts at $1,954/mo (annual) plus $25 per tenant for up to 100 tenants. There is no free plan.
