Enterprise-Scalable Storage Security Systems

Complete Storage Security Solutions

As the technology leader in enterprise-class data encryption, CipherMax delivers innovative solutions that enable organizations to protect their sensitive data and fulfill the compliance requirements of multiple regulatory initiatives and industry standards for data privacy assurance.

CipherMax has developed a family of enterprise storage security solutions that address the vulnerability of sensitive data, both inside and outside the primary data center. Regardless of the nature of your organization, CipherMax solutions will optimize the performance and effectiveness of your enterprise storage security strategy.

 

Migration to LTO-4 Encryption

External and internal forces are driving the move toward securing tape-based backup data through the application of encryption. Next-generation tape drives like LTO-4 with integrated encryption processing offer the promise of low-cost security with no added performance overhead, effectively eliminating the value proposition of software- and hardware-based point solutions for delivering data encryption services.

In the short term, however, financial commitments like capital equipment lease terms, the high cost of replacing existing tape inventories with new, encryption-ready media and the inability for older tape library models to support the newest drive technology rule out a forklift upgrade for most users. Instead, storage organizations committed to moving to encrypting tape drives will migrate over time, as equipment replacement is required, resulting in heterogeneous, multi-generation environments for the next several years.

SecureVTL (Virtual Tape Library)

Virtual Tape Library (VTL) technology has gained rapid adoption due to its ability to allow users to recover data rapidly and inexpensively. As these additional storage tiers are deployed, however, they introduce new vulnerabilities to data security.

CipherMax offers enterprise-class solutions for SecureVTL that deliver scalable, affordable, reliable AES-256 encryption as part of a layered security approach. The implementation of CipherMax’s SecureVTL solutions with generic disk arrays, VTL systems and CipherMax hardware and software demonstrates the feasibility and affordability of encrypting all archived data in without adding complexity or negatively impacting performance.

SecureDR (Data Replication)

Corporate data must be protected while “in flight” between sites and “at rest” in primary, regional and disaster recovery sites. While data encryption is a key factor in mitigating the security vulnerabilities of data in transit, users have lacked an enterprise encryption solution that addresses both data in flight and data at rest in a cost-effective manner.

CipherMax addresses this user problem with secure data replication solutions that protect corporate data at both local and remote sites, whether at rest or in flight, as part of a multi-layered, secure storage environment.

SecureRemote

Because of the sensitivity of data assets and possible damage to the enterprise in the form of financial liabilities or reputation damage, data replication at remote sites may present an unmanageable risk.

CipherMax SecureRemote solves the issues and concerns of sharing sensitive data between geographically dispersed sites. For distributed IT environments or third-party storage applications, SecureRemote enforces data confidentiality while allowing central data centers to retain control over security services.
