The CipherTrust Data Security Platform service provides users secure and remote access to a unique cloud instance of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform. This document contains details of provisioning the CipherTrust Data Security Platform as a Service through a Thales Data Protection on Demand tenant.

A DPoD subscriber tenant is required to provision a service. See Registering as a Subscriber Tenant for more information about creating a DPoD Subscriber Tenant and associated Tenant Administrator account. Tenant administrators can provision a service or create an application owner account to provision services.

For more information about usage and features of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform as a Service see the CipherTrust Data Security Platform as a Service beta documentation.

Create a CipherTrust Data Security Platform Service

Application owners and tenant administrators can provision services using the DPoD tenant marketplace.

1. Log in to your DPoD enterprise tenant as a user with tenant administrator or application owner privileges.

2. Open the Services tab and select the Add Service heading. Navigate the marketplace categories and click Create Service on the service that you would like to provision. If you have not submitted a Service Elections form or previously completed a trial for the service the option will display as Try Service.

3. The Add Service wizard displays. Review the Terms of Service and click Next.

4. On the Configure page provide the following service details:

   a. Enter a name for the service in the Service Name field.

   b. Select a Cloud Provider.

   c. Select a Cloud Region.

   Note

   Cloud Provider and Cloud Region options are limited during the CipherTrust Data Security Platform as a Service Beta. Options for Cloud Region are based on the parent Cloud Provider.

   d. Enter a Temporary Password and Confirm the Temporary Password.

   Tip

   The tenant name, username and password are required for logging in to the service through the service dashboard. The service dashboard will require a password reset on the user's initial login. The default Username for the CipherTrust Data Security Platform is admin. This username cannot be changed.

   Click Next.

5. Review your configuration summary page, and if you are satisfied, click Finish. If you would like to adjust the service configuration click Go Back.

   DPoD initializes provisioning of the service, this may take a few moments. After provisioning completes the service will be visible under the View Services table in DPoD with the Provisioned status.

   Click the service name to open the CipherTrust Data Security Platform service user interface in a new browser window.
