StrongSalt offers an API platform that lets developers integrate searchable encryption into new or existing applications. The service can sit on top of popular storage providers — Box, AWS S3, Google Cloud, and Azure — or provide its own storage. It uses blockchain mechanisms to record authorizations for sharing, simplify key management, and enable auditability and revocability. The company pivoted from an original focus on encrypted-code search to a broader API product applicable across applications. StrongSalt has a prior contract with the U.S. Department of Defense, which helped sustain the company before larger funding, and it previously raised a couple of small seed rounds. The company was founded in 2015 and currently has 12 employees spread globally.
