The Thales Cloud Connect Encryptor (CV1000) is a virtual high-performance network encryption solution, based on the award-winning hardware appliances, that secures data in motion as it travels to, from and within the cloud. The CV1000 allows full customer control from security policy to key management.
The Cloud Connect Encryptor (CV1000) delivers strong encryption of data on the move and ensures the authenticity, integrity and privacy of data transmitted: to the cloud from on-premises and within a cloud providers environment
The CV1000 features seamless integration of Thales hardware and software encryption appliances, creating a single, trusted platform for maximum data security. It is also integrated with Thales Luna HSM and/or Thales CipherTrust Manager for enhanced strong key management.
Network independent encryption provides maximum security for all network types and topologies, without performance penalties.
Shared responsibility: The cloud shared responsibility model means while cloud providers are responsible for infrastructure security, customers remain responsible for their own data security. Customers are responsible for the security of data both in the cloud and as it travels to/from cloud(s).
Performance: With the CV1000, customers leverage the industry leading HSE (High-Speed Encryption) platform from Thales as a unified, cloud native solution to protect data as it moves across critical infrastructure, ensuring low latency, tunnel free encryption to the cloud.
Modern encryption for modern networks: Thales HSE solutions support all four NIST Quantum Resistant Public Key algorithms (finalists) in all products (plus other non-finalist algorithms). In response to the Quantum threat, Thales Network Encryption solutions have supported QKD for more than a decade.

AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
This listing is free software; you pay only for the AWS EC2 instance you run it on. Pricing scales by the instance type you choose across two families. The c5 options (c5.xlarge, c5.2xlarge, c5.4xlarge, c5.9xlarge, c5.12xlarge, c5.18xlarge) are general compute sizes. The c5n options (c5n.xlarge, c5n.2xlarge, c5n.4xlarge, c5n.9xlarge, c5n.18xlarge) are network-optimized sizes. All bill per hour. Larger instance numbers provide more compute and networking capacity. You select the size that matches your throughput needs, then pay the hourly rate for that instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What am I actually paying for if the software itself is free?
You pay only the hourly AWS EC2 charge for the instance size you launch. The Cloud Connect Encryptor software carries no license fee. Your bill reflects running instance-hours on your chosen c5 or c5n type. Stopping the instance stops the hourly compute charge, though AWS storage fees may still apply.
What is the difference between the c5 and c5n instance choices for this encryptor?
Both families run the same encryption software. The c5 sizes provide general compute capacity. The c5n sizes add network optimization, which suits higher-throughput data-in-motion encryption across the network. Choose c5n when network bandwidth drives your workload, since the encryptor secures data as it moves.
How do I decide which instance size to run?
Match the size to your required encryption throughput. Larger instance numbers (for example 18xlarge versus xlarge) supply more compute and networking capacity for heavier traffic. You can pick a smaller size for lighter loads and change instance type later, paying the hourly rate for whichever size runs.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
