High performance data encryption
Whether your organization is in financial services, healthcare or the public sector, you face a serious challenge - securing sensitive customer and business data. Increasing regulatory and compliance requirements are driving the need for data security. Encryption is a powerful and widely used technology that helps protect data from inadvertent or deliberate compromise.
On August 29th, IBM announced that data encryption capabilities are now standard on newly ordered IBM System Storage™ TS1120 Tape Drives. Encrypting data at tape speed helps to avoid the need for host-based encryption of data — and the concurrent drain on host performance — or the use of specialized encryption appliances. This capability supports high volume data encryption of tape data, helping protect information if tape cartridges are lost or stolen.
