Never stop evolving – we’re always in pursuit of the next ground breaking technology

At NextLabs, our mission is to protect data anywhere and everywhere. We work relentlessly to develop technologies that empower enterprises to confidently tackle today’s data security challenges.  

We created groundbreaking technologies, as listed below, based on next-generation Data-Centric Security and Zero Trust Architecture. NextLabs developed these technologies through the engineering of 90+ patents and 30+ pending patents, in the areas of dynamic authorization, attribute-based access control (ABAC), policy development & targeting, policy enforcement & optimization, access analytics, and next-generation digital rights management (E-DRM).  

Our Technologies in Action

NextLabs Zero Trust Data Security is the result of our technologies and works seamlessly with enterprise IT infrastructures and vast cloud infrastructures. When a user, device, or application attempts to access an application or data, the policy engine (PDP) enforces the policy written by administrators through the use of dynamic authorization, Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), and enterprise digital rights management (E-DRM).  

The policy being enforced stems from the zero trust policy platform (CloudAz), which provides a central location for administrators to author policies easily using wp, a non-procedural language that utilizes a natural language syntax similar to English, eliminating much of the complexities associated with other authoring policies. 

Attributes from a variety of sources can be used with the zero trust policy platform to author policies. When an access attempt is made, the attributes of the user, device, or application are validated against the policy; if the attributes are aligned with the policy, the access attempt is granted. If the attributes are not aligned with the policy, the policy engine will deny access.  

NextLabs' Technology

ACPL 4GL Policy Language

A non-procedural language that utilizes a natural language syntax like English designed to define context-aware security policies across applications and systems based on attribute-based access control (ABAC) principles. It is the underlying policy language of NextLabs CloudAz policy platform.

Dynamic Authorization Policy Engine

A software component built on a distributed architecture optimized to deliver high performance and highly scalable real-time and context-aware authorization decisions across application and data sources based on attribute-based policy.

Zero Trust Policy Platform

The leading native zero trust multi-tenant policy platform with rapid policy development, robust governance, policy orchestration, and analytics functionality for managing authorization policies and provide continuous monitoring of data access activities across applications and services.

Real time Data-Centric Security Enforcement

A multi-layered and policy-driven approach that focuses on safeguarding data itself by applying a variety of data security controls such as attribute-based access control, data obfuscation, data segregation, digital rights management (DRM), and data loss prevention directly to data in real-time.

Enterprise Digital Rights Management (E-DRM)

The first Enterprise Digital Rights Management technology built-on Zero Trust Architecture to control access, secure sharing across enterprises, and protect usage of file and unstructured data of any types with security that stays with the file wherever it lives or travels to.

Zero Code Application Integrations

A technology framework that allow organizations to seamlessly apply security and compliance controls to existing applications without additional integration effort or customization, enabling rapid implementation of zero trust security model.
