SafeNet DataSecure i116
Database Encryption

Cost-effective Database and Application Security

For organizations looking to implement encryption of sensitive data in the enterprise, DataSecure represent a comprehensive solution for deployment throughout the distributed corporation. DataSecure offers a cost-effective solution that features high performance, high availability, and streamlined implementation.

Cost-effective Security

SafeNet DataSecure i116 is compliant with FIPS 140-2 Level 2 and Common Criteria Evaluation Assurance Level 2. DataSecure centralizes all cryptographic processing, key management, logging and auditing, and security policies on a single, hardened appliance, which maximizes overall security.

DataSecure offers a range of robust security features:

• Capabilities for segregating administrative duties so key controls are shared among multiple administrators.
• Secure, multi-factor authentication and access control between databases, servers and the DataSecure appliance.
• Granular authorization capabilities that enable constraints to be placed on user operations based on specific key permissions.
• Active alerting capabilities so that, if attempts to breach protected data occur, mechanisms are employed to alert administrators.
• Comprehensive backup and restore functionality and disaster recovery features.
• Support for AES, 3DES, RSA, HMACSHA-1, and other cryptographic algorithms.

Strong Performance

DataSecure centralizes all cryptographic processing on a highly specialized appliance that delivers performance robust enough for the most demanding batch processing and high-volume online transaction processing environments. A single appliance can handle over 11,000 encryptions per second, and DataSecure makes it easy, through load balancing, to add additional appliances and boost scalability as performance needs dictate.

Further, by offloading CPU-intensive cryptographic processing from servers and databases, DataSecure restores server and database performance to optimal levels—resulting in lower data latency and higher resource utilization. Designed specifically for business-critical processing, DataSecure also features replication, health checking, and disaster recovery capabilities.

Streamlined Implementation

For organizations looking to implement encryption of sensitive data in the enterprise, DataSecure represent a comprehensive solution for deployment throughout the distributed corporation. DataSecure offers a cost-effective data protection solution that features breakthrough performance, high availability, and streamlined implementation.

• Transparent to applications —with its automated database integration capabilities, DataSecure can be implemented with complete application transparency, dramatically reducing the time and costs normally associated with implementing encryption in an enterprise.
• Centralized —because it centralizes all administration of cryptographic policies and configuration, DataSecure streamlines the cost and effort of ongoing administration, particularly compared to server-based cryptography and key management.
• Flexible —DataSecure can be integrated wherever an organization's security and business needs dictate, whether at the Web server, application server, database, or file system layer; it offers support for leading, standards-based cryptographic algorithms, including AES, 3DES, RSA, and others; and it supports products from a range of Web server, application server, and database vendors.
