Redwood City, California – February 15, 2011 - Kinamik Data Integrity™, an IT security startup company focused on realtime data integrity technologies and innovative data assurance solutions, announced it has joined the Data Security Alliance (DSA) led by Application Security, Inc. (AppSec), the leading provider of database security, risk and compliance (SRC) solutions for the enterprise.

Kinamik’s assured data integrity protection capabilities will enable AppSec DbProtect customers to extend their database SRC capabilities to protect the integrity of their database audit trails and logs in realtime, rendering them tamper-evident so that even the most privileged users cannot modify them without generating an irrefutable record.

“The ability to sign and protect any audit trail data generated by database transactions is complementary to the capabilities of our DbProtect solution” said Josh Shaul, Vice President, Product Management at AppSec, Inc. “Partnering with Kinamik allows users to add evidential weight to the most sensitive data streams for compliance and helps meet key data assurance requirements.”

“Through this Alliance, Kinamik joins other complementary providers in support of the alliance goal of an extensible data-centric approach to protecting sensitive data”, said Gary Lefkowitz, Vice President of Marketing at Kinamik Data Integrity. “The Kinamik Secure Audit Vault technology provides real-time, granular data integrity capabilities and protects sensitive data elements in realtime so that end users can understand when policy thresholds have been exceeded, and so that these users can comply with increasingly stringent financial and privacy regulatory requirements.”
