IronCore Labs

IronCore Labs builds application-layer encryption tools that keep sensitive data private while it stays usable. Its products include SaaS Shield (tenant-controlled envelope encryption with customer-managed keys / BYOK for multi-tenant SaaS), Cloaked Search (a transparent encrypting proxy for Elasticsearch and OpenSearch), Cloaked AI (encryption of vector embeddings for AI/RAG workloads while preserving similarity search), the Data Control Platform (end-to-end encryption SDKs where the end user holds the key), and an S3 Proxy for per-tenant object encryption. Developers integrate through the unified IronCore Alloy SDK (Rust, Python, Java, Kotlin), the legacy Tenant Security Client (Node.js, Go, PHP), and the self-hosted Vendor API Bridge REST API for programmatic tenant and KMS configuration management.

IronCore Labs publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Configuration Assignment API, KMS Configuration API, Tag API, and 2 more. Tagged areas include Company, Encryption, Data Privacy, Security, and Application-Layer Encryption.

IronCore Labs’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, pricing, support, authentication, and 28 more developer resources.
