Data Transfer Monitoring Tool
What the tool offers
Data Transfer Monitoring Tool (DTMT) is a detective tool that tracks operations over the cloud infrastructure layer as to identify if intentionally or accidentally the processing is being carried out by authorized processors in allowed geographical reasons. For that, it intercepts events at the network level and infers, using rules and policies if the event signals irregularities. The tool operates on an OpenStack Infrastructure.
The tool innovation
DTMT is the only tool doing such thing, according to our knowledge. Intrusion detection systems can be perhaps configured to offer a similar function, but that would be cumbersome.
Raising impact
By adopting the tool cloud providers can be more transparent and accountable towards their customers. They may win some market share.
