Enterprises can now deploy WAN acceleration as a strategic component of key IT initiatives.
Silver Peak Systems, a provider of scalable Wide Area Network (WAN) acceleration appliances, has announced a new framework for end-to-end security and data privacy in an accelerated WAN environment. The Silver Peak "Secure Content Architecture™" uses encryption technology to protect data at all times – at rest and across the WAN. With its Secure Content Architecture, Silver Peak makes it easy to configure, enforce, and monitor security policies for its WAN acceleration appliances from a central location, and employs hardware acceleration to ensure that security scales with growing Enterprise WAN acceleration demands. With Silver Peak's Secure Content Architecture, enterprises have the confidence they need to deploy WAN acceleration as a strategic component of key IT initiatives, including business continuity, server/storage consolidation and branch office consolidation..
"We require close co-ordination between hundreds of employees, consultants and outside contractors spread across dozens of offices", said Garv Nayyer, Senior Integration Engineer at SoundTransit, the organisation responsible for building and operating the regional transit system in the greater Seattle area. "From a scalability standpoint, we needed a solution that could support both voice and video applications between all of these locations. From a security standpoint, we required disk encryption to ensure compliance with strict government standards. When these requirements were put forth, the Silver Peak solution stood out from the rest."
