Can CipherTEA fully prevent data breaches, or is it responsible if one occurs?
No system can guarantee complete prevention of data breaches. CipherTEA significantly reduces the impact of a breach by ensuring that any stolen data remains encrypted and unusable without proper authorization. However, overall security also depends on how you implement CipherTEA in your applications, how you manage your infrastructure, and how you handle access control. CipherTEA provides strong encryption, but responsibility for secure implementation rests with the user.
Can CipherTEA help with compliance requirements like PCI-DSS or HIPAA?
Yes. While CipherTEA is not a compliance certification provider, using application-level encryption with our APIs makes it easier for you to meet requirements for protecting sensitive data under PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR.
What happens if my API key is leaked?
If your API key is exposed, it can be revoked instantly from your dashboard and replaced with a new one. We recommend rotating keys regularly and limiting their scope within your applications.
How do I integrate CipherTEA into my app?
Integration is simple: install our JAR, configure your API key, and call the provided REST endpoints or local service. No specialized cryptography knowledge is required to get started.
What types of data can I encrypt with CipherTEA?
You can encrypt any kind of application data, including text, JSON fields, IDs, or structured records. This makes CipherTEA suitable for securing PII, payment details, credentials, or custom sensitive fields in your applications
How fast is CipherTEA encryption and decryption?
CipherTEA is built for speed and simplicity. Our APIs are optimized to handle encryption and decryption in milliseconds, allowing you to secure sensitive fields in your applications without performance bottlenecks.
Does CipherTEA store my data or keys?
No. CipherTEA does not act as a database or storage provider. Your data stays in your environment. CipherTEA simply provides encryption and decryption at the application level, before your data is stored or transmitted.
Do I need to set up any special infrastructure to use CipherTEA?
No. CipherTEA is designed to work out-of-the-box. You can call our APIs directly or run our lightweight JAR locally. There’s no need to maintain hardware security modules or complicated infrastructure during setup.
What problem does CipherTEA solve compared to using libraries like OpenSSL?
Traditional cryptography libraries are powerful but complex. Developers often spend weeks setting up, managing keys, and writing boilerplate code. CipherTEA removes this overhead by providing ready-to-use encryption and decryption APIs that can be integrated in minutes, without needing to manage your own cryptographic infrastructure
