Covertix

Covertix develops data-centric security solutions that protect sensitive documents persistently, maintaining security controls even after files leave the organization's perimeter. Unlike traditional perimeter-based security, Covertix SmartCipher technology embeds protection directly into files, enabling automatic classification, encryption, and access control that travels with the document.

The platform provides real-time monitoring of document access and usage, automatic policy enforcement based on content classification, and dynamic rights management that can revoke access to documents after they have been shared. This approach ensures data protection across email, cloud storage, collaboration platforms, and external partner networks.

Dual-use relevance is very high: persistent document protection is critical for both commercial enterprises handling sensitive IP and defense/intelligence organizations managing classified information. Military applications include protecting classified documents shared across coalition partners, controlling access to sensitive intelligence reports distributed outside secure networks, and maintaining audit trails for all document access in defense environments. Covertix raised VC funding and serves enterprise and government customers.
