Securing enterprise data with encryption requires a tradeoff with storage efficiency – using encryption negates data reduction technologies like compression and deduplication. This can result in storage capacity requirements increasing up to 500% compared to those for storing unencrypted data. With Vormetric Transparent Encryption for Efficient Storage (VTE-ES), users no longer need to make the choice between data security and storage efficiency.
Using secure key sharing technologies between Vormetric Transparent Encryption (VTE) and storage arrays, encrypted data from hosts running VTE can now be analyzed by enterprise storage solutions, compressed and deduplicated, and then securely stored on the array in an encrypted format. With VTE-ES, there isn’t any data security impact on data reduction.
Pure Storage FlashArray is the first storage solution Thales has integrated with VTE-ES. As a result, this industry-first solution delivers end-to-end encryption while preserving the industry-leading data reduction benefits of Pure.
