Overview

The HP StorageWorks Secure Key Manager reduces your risk of a costly data breach and reputation damage while improving regulatory compliance with a secure centralized encryption key management solution for HP LTO4 enterprise tape libraries. The Secure Key Manager automates key management and is a hardened server appliance delivering secure identity-based access, administration and logging with strong auditable security designed to meet the rigorous FIPS 140-2 security standards. Additionally, the Secure Key Manager provides reliable lifetime key archival with automatic multi-site key replication, and high availability clustering. Encryption clients can access the cluster using flexible path and node failover capabilities.

Features

Reduce risk of a data breach: Keep your tape encrypted data private and protect your company reputation with HP Secure Key Manager while improving regulatory compliance and avoiding financial consequences of a breach. Avoid situations requiring disclosure of unauthorized access to unencrypted private information.

Centralized with automatic policy-based key generation: Reduces the complexity of managing encryption keys for data at rest across a distributed infrastructure with a single point of management. Independent of tape drive count, multiple ESL/EML LTO4 tape libraries are supported per node further boosting investment protection.

Transparent to ISV applications: Reduce impact to existing backup and recovery processes. The key management and data encryption occurs transparent to the backup application. The data can be decrypted on an HP Secure Key Manager library client that has permission to access the key.

Security hardened server appliance: Features a security hardened Linux kernel, dual locking bezel with durable pick-resistant locks and tamper-evident enclosure seals to provide platform security substantially beyond a general purpose server key repository.

Secure access, control and digitally signed logs: Provides a trusted infrastructure for enforcement of internal security policies/controls and a trusted audit trail of encryption and key management activities as evidence for compliance and audit verifications.
