Voltage Security

What Voltage Security does

Voltage Security, founded in 2002 and headquartered in Cupertino, United States, is the developer of the Voltage SecureData data-centric security platform, now operated as a product line within OpenText (NASDAQ: OTEX) following its acquisition. The company builds quantum-ready, format-preserving encryption (FPE) and high-performance tokenization software based on the NIST-approved AES FF1 standard (NIST SP 800-38G), in which OpenText/Voltage is the original innovator. The platform protects sensitive structured data — payment card information, PII, PHI, and financial records — across hybrid IT, cloud, mainframe (IBM z/OS), and analytics environments (Snowflake, Databricks, Teradata, BigQuery, Hadoop, Vertica, Trino) while preserving referential integrity so that downstream applications and analytics continue to function unchanged. The product suite includes the core SecureData Servers engine plus specialized modules: SecureData Payments (PCI DSS), SecureData Integrations (multi-cloud ETL), SecureData Sentry (transparent interception without code changes), SecureData z/Protect (mainframe), and SecureData APIs (developer integration), with stateless key management that derives keys on demand to eliminate storage and replication overhead. The business sells primarily to large regulated enterprises in financial services, healthcare, retail, telecommunications, logistics, and government, monetizing through quote-based multi-year software subscriptions and professional services, distributed via OpenText's direct enterprise field sales, certified Global System Integrators (HPE, Accenture, Deloitte, TCS), enterprise application partners (SAP, Microsoft, Salesforce), and the AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure Marketplaces. Notable customers include SIX Group (financial services compliance), Swisscom AG (10M customer records protected), BELBİM (smart-city data privacy), and a multinational retailer securing 12 billion events per day. The platform holds FIPS 140-2 (Certificate #2686) and Common Criteria / ISO 15408 certifications and was recognized as a KuppingerCole Leader in data security in 2025.
