Q3 - Storage Security Encryption Appliance
BOSaNOVA's Q3 storage encryption appliance provides complete
security for backup tapes without affecting performance. It is the simplest,
least intrusive high security tape encryption device available. Installation
takes only minutes and key management is strong yet simple. The appliance sits
between the data path and the tape storage device. It requires no system or
software changes and can be used on both stand-alone and library tape drives.
According to the Identity Theft Resource Center, in 2006 there were over 315
publicized security breaches affecting nearly 20 million individuals. Lost or
stolen backup tapes contributes to a large number of these breaches. The
protection of backup data is often overlooked. Many believe that it is useless
because it contains old information only used for disaster recovery. Even just
one compromised backup tape can cost a company their reputation, competitive
advantage, and thousands in fines. In a statement from the Ponemon Research
firm, they reported that data breaches cost companies an average of $182 per
compromised record in legal fees and other expenses.
Due to recent government regulations companies are now required by law to
protect consumer's personal information. Regulations like HIPAA protect
consumers by requiring that their critical personal data is secure at all times.
California Senate Bill 1386 goes one step further by requiring that customers
are notified immediately when there's a suspicion that their personal data has
been compromised. This can be as simple as a tape lost in transit.
