NetApp Lifetime Key Management

Key Points:

• Ensure secure storage of all keys via FIPS 140-2 level 3 certified Storage Encryption Processor (SEP)
• Archive and restore keys for more than 100 systems and more than 10 million individual keys
• Cluster up to 16 NetApp Lifetime Key Management systems for high availability
• Automate global backup, replication, and secure key sharing
• Utilize advanced key sharing policy features to define specific encryption appliance key sharing groups

Rely on our NetApp Lifetime Key Management™ system to support your data encryption requirements while strengthening and simplifying your long-term key management needs.

Our NetApp Lifetime Key Management system offers a secure, centrally managed, automated system so encrypted data is rendered unreadable until your security administrator authorizes the data to be read.

• Third-generation technology gives you a tested, stable, reliable system
• Two-factor authentication and minimum quorum requirements ensure no single person can override your system security

Storing encrypted enterprise data for months or years means encryption keys must be archived securely without complicating matters for your administrators or users.

Use SecureView™ management functionality for:

• Deploying firmware patches to all systems
• Configuring backup and management systems
• Monitoring systems’ health, status, and licenses
• Running commands on groups of systems and collecting results centrally

Transparent yet secure key movement is now possible through authenticated links. These links allow policy-based key sharing to automatically send keys to wherever encrypted data needs to be restored.
