Seclore for Manufacturing
Unified solutions for protecting critical designs, blueprints and other manufacturing IP that’s shared internally, or externally with suppliers and contractors that also meets your regulatory compliance needs.
Trusted by industry-leading enterprises
Foster productivity and innovation through cybersecurity
In the manufacturing industry, protecting intellectual property (IP) and sensitive data is crucial for staying competitive and compliant. As global supply chains become more complex, securing data across multiple tiers of suppliers, partners and contractors presents unprecedented challenges.
Seclore’s data-centric security solution empowers manufacturers to protect their IP, maintain regulatory compliance with frameworks like NIST, ITAR, and EAR, and securely collaborate without disruption. With seamless integrations, granular access controls, and full data-movement visibility Seclore ensures that your most valuable digital assets remain secure wherever they go.
Why Seclore is essential for success in manufacturing
Large manufacturers often share sensitive data and proprietary IP with a vast network of third-party vendors for various processes like design, manufacturing, and distribution. In some cases, shared data may be subject to regulations such as ITAR, EAR, and NIST. Seclore helps manufacturers protect digital assets before they are shared, ensuring that organizations retain visibility and control over sensitive information, regardless of how widely it is shared.
IP protection
Encrypt and watermark sensitive or proprietary digital assets like patent-application material so they’re always protected at rest, in transit, and in use.
Operational
resilience
Prevent disruptions by securing critical digital assets, ensuring business continuity even in the face of cyber incidents or supply chain breaches.
Data control and visibility
Track activity information for anyone who accesses, shares, or modifies protected digital assets, and revoke their access at any time.
Offerings for manufacturing organizations
Enterprise digital rights management
Persistently protect digital assets that contain proprietary IP, and manage access to sensitive data shared internally or externally with global suppliers to prevent data theft, and leakage.
Neutral CAD support
Protect neutral CAD files with world-class encryption, rights management, dynamic watermarking, global tracking, and dynamic access control rules.
Granular controls
Protect 3D designs, trade secrets, and formulas with granular access and usage controls (read, edit, print), and instantly revoke access when it’s no longer needed.
Risk insights and dashboard
Get a “single pane of glass” to monitor user behavior and access patterns within your third party supplier and vendor ecosystem.
Dynamic watermarking
Dynamically watermark your proprietary IP and sensitive data to deter unauthorized sharing, ensure accountability, and investigate leaks.
Secure external collaboration

Seclore Demo
American Auto Co.
“We use Seclore for our RFP/RFQs where we need to share confidential designs to suppliers (who also service our competitors). Once the contract is awarded, Seclore enables us to revoke access to the CAD files and other requirement documents from the other suppliers — drastically reducing the risk of competitive theft.”
