Ciena and SafeNet join forces
Ciena and SafeNet have announced a partnership to jointly sell high-speed, low-latency Ethernet link encryption services for commercial and government networks. Ciena's Carrier Ethernet and Packet-Optical platforms, and SafeNet's Ethernet Encryptor solutions, have been tested for interoperability and provide assured, optimized and secure Layer 2 encryption services at speeds of up to 10 Gb/s.
"Encryption, which has long been the preferred method for securing the most critical data assets, is in ever-increasing demand as a result of today's compliance regulations, data breach notification requirements, and increased dependence on cloud computing. The combination of SafeNet's encryption with Ciena's Packet-Optical technology can help organizations process this increased volume of cryptographic data with the highest degree of security and the lowest latency possible," said Jim Summers, Corporate Vice-President & General Manager, SafeNet Government Solutions.
"With network attacks and security risks increasing, commercial and government organizations need to re-evaluate how best to protect their networks and the information they carry. By partnering with SafeNet to deliver Ethernet link encryption, we are providing our customers with a standards-based solution that reduces the cost and complexity of protecting mission-critical data and helps keep networks secure," said Dave Peed, Vice-President & General Manager, Ciena Government Solutions, Inc.
