Cybernetics Data Encryption
Companies have a fiduciary responsibility to protect their customers’ most private data, and that has become quite a challenge judging from the headlines. Serious data security breaches have resulted from a multitude of spectacular failures – everything from sloppy handling to cyber crime.
The federal government is now exploring legislation to enforce adequate data protection measures to ensure the confidentiality of important data. The options have been very limited for companies seeking to comply. Software encryption can reduce performance to a crawl and bloat the size of data, adding to the overhead of getting it securely backed up. Other
hardware-based options are exorbitantly expensive. Now, Cybernetics has just released our newest, third generation hardware encryption option. Data is compressed before it is encrypted so the required tape capacity is actually decreased, typically by a factor of two to one. The entire process of compressing and encrypting is handled in a high performance encryption offload engine so there is no negative impact on processing speed. The integrated compression feature improves speed as well as capacity. Key management is based on encryption tokens, which allow physical control and easy visual audit. The user data is encrypted using the very secure AES algorithm with a truly random AES session key. Reading an encrypted tape requires the use of a token listed in the integrated distribution list. The virtual erase feature wipes a tape such that there is no possibility of getting to the data once it has served its useful purpose.

Cybernetics’
drive status LCD has now gone remote!
iVIEW
is a standard feature with all iTape products, and is an
option available for most of our direct SCSI attached
devices. Simply connect your Cybernetics tape drive with
iVIEW to your Ethernet network, and view the backup status
window from any system on your entire network - intranet
and internet, using any web browser. Use your Backup
Window to check the status of your tape backup any time,
anywhere. |

AIT-Tape
Advanced SCSI Processor ( CY-ASP )
The
Advanced SCSI Processor (CY-ASP) allows two or more tape
drives to work together to maximize speed and capacity
while saving time and resources. It is a powerful and
flexible tool, yet very easy to use. Choose from striping,
mirroring, cascade, independent, and off-line copy/verify
modes to maximize throughput, add fault tolerance or make
duplicate tapes for off-site storage or data exchange, and
you can easily change modes without having to cycle power. |

USB
Tape Offload
Want
to offload virtual disk to a removable media?
Cybernetics Virtual Tape Library solutions feature
a Tape Offload feature that copies data to USB disk for
secure off-site storage.
USB disk can be mounted to ensure no single point
of failure. This
feature is available with miSAN
V Series D2D2T Backup solution, as well as the miSAN
D Series iSCSI Storage solution.

miSAN
With the introduction of miSAN™, Cybernetics settles the
debate over NAS versus SAN. miSAN™ incorporates the best
features of NAS with the best features of SAN to strike
the perfect balance in Ethernet storage networking.
A typical NAS is affordable and very easy to
implement using the existing networking infrastructure,
but the file system overhead imposes serious speed
limitations and application compatibility constraints. A
traditional SAN can deliver exceptional performance
benefits, but the costs and complexity of the hardware,
cabling and software can be staggering. miSAN™ merges
only the best features of NAS and SAN into a powerful
storage solution that overcomes the limitations of both.

iSAN
IP SAN - Ethernet Attached SAN
The concept is simple: strategically
position centralized data storage resources across your
existing Ethernet network to optimize shared storage
availability, maximize hardware performance, and
streamline storage management. And now, Cybernetics makes
implementation just as simple - as well as affordable.
