Decru Unveils Decru SecureView™ Management Framework for Enterprise-Wide Storage Security
Storage Networking World, San Diego, Calif.
- April 17, 2007 -- Decru, a
NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) company, today unveiled the Decru®
SecureView™ management framework to enable centralized
management of encryption, keys, and policies across the enterprise.
The SecureView framework is available on all Decru appliances,
providing a secure, simplified interface to manage security for
heterogeneous storage environments.
As enterprises have moved from piecemeal
encryption to broader, enterprise-wide initiatives, the need for
powerful unified management has emerged. The SecureView framework
is available immediately to centralize control of Decru security
and key management appliances, providing secure management of up to
1,000 devices from a single interface. Features include
administrator management, role-based access controls (RBAC),
configuration and patch management, rolling upgrades, performance
and access monitoring, and centralized graphical user (GUI) and
command-line interfaces (CLI) to enable the automation of
operations across groups of appliances. SecureView uses
cryptographic smart cards to enforce two-factor authentication for
administrative access, and all cryptographic functions run inside
secure hardware in Decru DataFort® and Lifetime Key
Management™ appliances.
"Most enterprises realize that their data
security needs will only grow, and strong management for
encryption, keys, and policies is a must-have," said Michele
Borovac, director of marketing at Decru. "Our customers tell us
that centralized management is critical for deploying security
across distributed environments, and the SecureView platform
incorporates many of the best practices we've developed over the
past years."
The introduction of the SecureView platform
highlights the ongoing innovation that makes Decru the leader in
the storage security market. Other firsts include the
following:
- Decru DataFort, introduced in 2002 as the
first and only storage security platform to support the full range
of heterogeneous enterprise storage, secures data in NAS, IP SAN,
FC SAN, and tape backup environments.
- The Decru Lifetime Key Management system (LKM)
was introduced in 2003 as the first key management system to
support automated security for data at rest. LKM has been deployed
to support DataFort appliances in over 35 countries.
- Decru was the first storage security vendor to
penetrate critical markets including government, financial
services, and telecommunications. Decru is trusted by government
customers on 3 continents, 7 of the top 10 U.S. banks, and top 5
companies in the telecommunications, media, software,
manufacturing, semiconductor design, pharmaceuticals, and energy
sectors worldwide.
- NetApp and Decru were recently recognized as
the #1 storage security provider for Fortune 1000 enterprises in a
poll by TheInfoPro. (Source: TheInfoPro Information Security, Wave
