Abstract:

Data Center Connect Security

A comprehensive approach to preventing, detecting and mitigating data security risks.

Facing increased security threats and new regulations, enterprises must develop a comprehensive IT security program to address real-time data transfers between data centers. Essential requirements include physical-layer encryption of in-flight1 data — which can encrypt local area network (LAN), storage area network (SAN) and High Performance Computing (HPC) application data traffic — as well as encryption key management for the security of mission-critical data. The Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS ), a best-of-breed wavelength division multiplexing (WDM ) platform, along with the Alcatel-Lucent 1830 Key Management Tool (KMT), delivers these requirements to demanding enterprises today. This compelling solution for data center interconnection is capable of encrypting application data in less than 1 µsec, a latency equivalent to only 200 meters of fiber. It also provides today’s most comprehensive key management solution to support the automated rotation of encryption keys with end-user control.
