Data Security with Decru from NetApp

Organizations are saving money and improving data access by implementing aggregated storage technologies such as NAS and SANs, and replicating this data for backup and disaster recovery.  However, this creates significant security risks, especially since data in networked storage environments is significantly more vulnerable to unauthorized access, theft or misuse than data stores in direct-attached storage. At the same time, new privacy initiatives are mandating greater focus on the security of stored data.

Decru – A NetApp company - offers a comprehensive solution to the storage security problem, enabling organizations to build defense in depth. Decru DataFort is a powerful, scalable, network appliance that is designed specifically for the task of securing stored data. DataFort enables organizations to reap the full benefits of networked storage, while ensuring that the data remains private and secure.

The Decru solution represents the first and only unified platform for securing stored data across the enterprise, with support for NAS, DAS, SAN, Tape, and iSCSI environments. Decru DataFort™ storage security appliances use wire-speed encryption, granular access controls, strong authentication, and cryptographically-signed auditing to protect stored data. DataFort can be deployed transparently with no changes to applications, servers, desktops, storage, authentication, or user workflow, and negligible impact to overall performance.
