Description
The CN8000 is a high-speed multi-slot hardware encryption platform that secures data over Ethernet and Fibre Channel networks. The CN8000 supports up to 10 high speed encryption slots. Each slot can be configured by the user to support 1-10Gb/s Ethernet or 1-4Gb/s Fibre Channel. Data privacy is provided by FIPS approved AES CFB and CTR algorithms. GCM is also available for applications that demand authentication.
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength); EC Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides between 128 and 256 bits of encryption strength); NDRNG; RSA (key wrapping; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength)
