Gemalto Launches 100G Multi-Link Encryption

AMSTERDAM -- Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653 GTO), the world leader in digital security, announced the release of its new SafeNet Multi-Link High Speed Encryptor (HSE) solution that provides the equivalent of 10 by 10 Gbps high-speed encryptors in one unit. With a total encrypted bandwidth of 100 Gbps, the CN8000 helps enterprises and service providers protect sensitive data transmitted across their increasingly large-scale data networks. The SafeNet CN8000 enables organizations to encrypt multiple network links and more traffic while providing unparalleled performance and security for organizations that operate large-scale, high-capacity networks.

As more large enterprises and service providers deploy additional network links at increased speeds across their networks to support growing bandwidth demands, the Gemalto SafeNet CN8000 enables cost-effective implementation of high-speed encryption across more network links - protecting their sensitive data from interception without compromising their networks’ speed and performance.

With a capacity of 10 x 10 Gbps encryptors and a total encrypted bandwidth of 100 Gbps, the SafeNet CN8000 delivers exceptional encrypted throughput in a compact and energy efficient form. As with other encryptors in the SafeNet HSE family, the CN8000 offers best-of-breed encryption and key management; near zero latency; zero network overheads and set-and-forget simplicity.

Designed to support the highest security criteria, the CN8000’s ten 10 Gbps multi-link design includes an important multiple tenancy feature, which provides flexibility benefits to organizations that require separating specific sensitive data and network links.

The CN8000 utilizes embedded quantum random number generation to guarantee high-quality randomness for protection against targeted crypto-attacks.
