GE Chooses Vera to Enhance Security of Proprietary IP and Global Systems

Vera announced today that GE has selected it as its data-centric security solution to protect product designs, intellectual property, and proprietary data across the company. With Vera, GE is automatically securing IP across systems and maintaining control over how third parties can use and access sensitive documents throughout their entire lifecycle.

"GE is a data driven organization, and the engineering data we generate is critical to our competitive advantage," said Nasrin Rezai, vice president, global chief information and product security officer at GE. "When product designs and specifications are shared without continuous protection as part of our supply chain collaboration and technical processes, they're susceptible to theft or illegitimate use in today's digital economy. Vera addresses this problem because we know even when shared externally, these files are protected at the source."

As more companies use technology and data to drive innovation and growth, email encryption, audit, and access control is an absolute necessity. With Vera, GE will protect confidential data and email, prevent unwanted sharing, and dynamically revoke access to content. For both senders and recipients, Vera offers an unparalleled, zero-friction experience, eliminating complicated key exchanges and proprietary plug-ins, making email security simple and scalable across organizations.

"It's an honor to enable GE to protect their most innovative and important intellectual property," said Ajay Arora, CEO and co-founder of Vera. "GE continues to be one of the most respected companies in the world making it an unbelievable privilege to win the support of one of the bedrocks of industry of the last two centuries. With GE fully embracing a data-centric approach to cybersecurity, we've entered new and exciting era where the old paradigm of perimeter-based security is no longer the unquestioned norm. With Vera, GE can now protect their world-changing innovations anywhere and everywhere."
