TDMASH and Privicore Announce Strategic Partnership to Deliver Advanced Data Security and Privacy Solutions

Cottleville, Missouri

TDMASH and Privicore strategic partnership: delivering advanced data security and privacy solutions for applications, cloud and AI systems, with sales, implementation and ongoing support.

Cottleville, Missouri — October 1, 2026 — TDMASH, a custom software development, technology services, security and AI solutions company, today announced a strategic sales, implementation and support partnership with Privicore, developer of the Data Control Layer™ for the AI Era.

The partnership expands TDMASH’s ability to provide advanced data security and privacy solutions to organizations managing sensitive, regulated or mission-critical information. Through the partnership, TDMASH will work directly with clients to identify opportunities for Privicore technology, develop and implement solutions around specific business use cases, and provide ongoing support.

Privicore’s platform is designed to place security controls directly around the data itself. Its technology combines tokenization, multi-layer encryption, distributed storage and contextual authorization to control how sensitive information can be accessed and used. Privicore also provides capabilities designed to govern how AI agents, RAG pipelines and large language models interact with protected data.

The partnership is particularly relevant to organizations in industries where protecting sensitive information is a fundamental business requirement, including healthcare, financial services, Aviation, legal services, government and other highly regulated environments.

Bringing Data Security Into the Application and AI Strategy

TDMASH has extensive experience developing and supporting custom software and data-driven applications. Its current services include custom software development, mobile applications, workflow orchestration, AI-driven automation and managed application services. Security is incorporated into TDMASH’s development and support approach, including authentication, application security, monitoring, backup, business continuity and disaster recovery.

Privicore adds another layer to that capability by giving TDMASH a technology specifically designed to protect sensitive data throughout its lifecycle and to apply policy decisions at the point where data is requested.

“We are very excited to announce this partnership with Privicore. The Privicore platform adds significant strategic value to TDMASH and greatly strengthens the security services we can confidently offer our clients and the communities we serve. We expect to develop and deliver use cases that bring the benefits of Privicore to our healthcare, legal, financial services and other clients where data security is absolutely critical.”

— Steve Thomas, CEO, TDMASH

“Our strategy is to make Privicore the underlying Data Control Layer that partners can build into real-world solutions. TDMASH brings exactly what we look for in a partner: strong software development capabilities, customer relationships and the ability to turn technology into practical use cases. Together, we can bring advanced data control and AI governance directly into applications and workflows across healthcare, financial services, legal and other data-sensitive industries.”

— Geir Christian Karlsen, Founder & CEO, Privicore

A Foundation for New Security and AI Use Cases

The partnership also creates opportunities for TDMASH and Privicore to develop practical solutions around emerging technology challenges.

As organizations increasingly adopt artificial intelligence, automated workflows, RAG systems and AI agents, controlling access to the underlying data becomes increasingly important. Privicore enables organizations to avoid giving AI systems unrestricted standing access to protected information. Instead, requests for sensitive data can be evaluated against contextual policies before protected information is released.

This creates an independent control layer between AI systems and sensitive enterprise data — allowing organizations to determine what an AI system can access, under what conditions, and when additional authorization or human approval should be required.

As Privicore describes the principle:

“AI may assist. Humans decide.”

For TDMASH customers, this creates opportunities to incorporate data-control capabilities into new applications as well as existing systems, without necessarily replacing the technology infrastructure already in place.

This approach also reflects Privicore’s broader partnership strategy. Rather than becoming the end-user application for every industry or use case, Privicore is designed to operate as an underlying engine that software companies, system integrators and technology partners can incorporate into their own products and customer solutions.

The Privicore partnership at TDMASH will be led by Technology Director and Senior Delivery Manager Tony Gumusata. Mr. Gumusata has more than 10 years of experience in key leadership roles around security and compliance for enterprise organizations and plays a key role in managing TDMASH’s AI initiatives.

“Organizations are being asked to do two things at the same time: make better use of their data and protect it more effectively,” said Mr. Gumusata. “We see Privicore as an important technology for addressing both sides of that equation.”

Privicore currently identifies healthcare, financial services, defense and government, AI and agentic systems, autonomous systems and API security among the areas where its technology can be applied. TDMASH is now positioned to help organizations evaluate those capabilities in the context of their own applications, workflows and security requirements.
