Virtru launches open-source project OpenTDF

Data protection provider Virtru is expanding its portfolio of encryption and privacy applications with the launch of its OpenTDF project, an open-source initiative to enable a universal standard for data control. By leveraging OpenTDF, developers can encrypt and protect sensitive data, and incorporate zero trust data control into their applications.

Virtru founder and CTO Will Ackerly’s first iteration of the project served as a function within in the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), and it has also appeared as an open specification that the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) hosted. Over time, the specification of TDF, or Trusted Data Format, has consistently informed efforts to facilitate sharing of sensitive data across disparate domains. Now, with OpenTDF’s launch, developers can access software development kits (SDKs), hosted in the OpenTDF GitHub repo, which simplifies how applications capable of governing sensitive data are built as it navigates through documents, video feeds, IoT sensors, and multi-party analytics.
