CipherTrust

CipherTrust Manager is Thales's centralized key- and data-security management platform and the control plane of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform (CDSP). It provides a unified plane for encryption key lifecycle management, secrets management, certificates, tokenization, data discovery, and policy enforcement across on-premises, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments including AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, with HSM/KMIP integration, Kubernetes and DevSecOps support, role-based access controls, and post-quantum cryptography readiness. Developers and platform teams automate it through a REST API (base path /api/v1, JWT bearer authentication), an official HashiCorp Terraform provider (ThalesGroup/ciphertrust), an Ansible collection, and PowerShell orchestration modules, plus Application Protection SDKs for embedding encryption, key management, and tokenization in apps.

CipherTrust publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Encryption, Key Management, and Secrets Management.

CipherTrust’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, support, authentication, and 13 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/ciphertrust: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  description: REST API for the CipherTrust Manager control plane. Manages encryption keys, secrets, certificates, tokenization,
    users, connections, and policies. Base path /api/v1 with JWT bearer authentication obtained from POST /api/v1/auth/tokens.
    The API is served from the customer's CipherTrust Manager deployment (appliance, private cloud, or CipherTrust Data Security
    Platform as a Service), so there is no single public base host; a built-in Swagger playground ships on each instance.
