Brocade Encryption

NetApp and Brocade have developed a fabric-based data encryption approach that delivers nondisruptive encryption and provides a centralized point of management for your storage security and key management needs.

As an IT organization, the security of your company’s valuable data assets is your charter. In addition to complying with regulatory mandates and meeting industry standards for data confidentiality, you must also protect against potential litigation and liability following a reported breach.

In the context of data center fabric security, NetApp and Brocade provide advanced fabric services for storage area networks (SANs) with the Brocade Encryption Switch and Blade. These high-speed, highly reliable hardware devices deliver fabric-based encryption services to secure data assets either selectively or comprehensively.

Moreover, the Brocade Encryption Switch is tightly integrated with NetApp's industry-leading DataFort and Lifetime Key Management solutions, which can scale to support key lifecycle services across distributed environments.
