ADVA announced that its optical encryption technology has been deployed by several major Swedish financial enterprises. Installed by ADVAs long-term partner, the IT solutions provider Shibuya Crossing, ADVA ConnectGuard is now providing some of Scandinavias largest banks with the most robust security available. The technology safeguards mission-critical data by encrypting at the lowest network layer, guaranteeing the most resilient protection with none of the latency and performance problems that come with other security methods. ConnectGuard is the first technology that supports Fibre Channel encryption for service speeds up to 32Gbit/s on line speeds of up to 200Gbit/s. Its also the only solution capable of such speeds to achieve BSI-approved status, enabling its use for EU and NATO restricted data.
Weve been working closely with ADVA for more than 15 years and the value of our partnership is well known. Financial institutions in this region put a great deal of faith in ADVAs comprehensive Layer 1 encryption technology and the dedication and technical expertise of our combined team. Theres simply no one better to turn to for secure data center transport solutions that stand up to the latest cybersecurity threats and meet the diverse demands of todays leading banking institutions, said Mikael Johansson, director, sales and marketing, Shibuya Crossing. Also fundamental to our success in Sweden is the ability of our solutions to support the latest Fibre Channel transport and seamlessly integrate next-generation storage technology as soon as it becomes available. This ensures that were maximizing the power of our clients storage area networks both now and in years to come.
Now safeguarding Swedens most critical financial infrastructure, ADVA ConnectGuard is a comprehensive, high-performance security system for the protection of data in-flight and a key tool in the fight against cyberattacks. Compliant with the strictest regulatory requirements, ConnectGuard is the first BSI-approved solution to protect data at the physical network layer. This method of encryption, which ensures the lowest cost-per-bit as well as ultra-low latency and high performance, has become the de-facto standard for major financial institutions. Designed primarily for data center interconnect applications transporting huge amounts of data across geographically dispersed locations, ConnectGuard provides robust encryption across line speeds of up to 200Gbit/s and eliminates the need for stand-alone security equipment.
Were proud that our longstanding partnership with Shibuya Crossing is providing new opportunities to Swedens leading banks and bringing peace of mind to their clients. Specifically engineered to protect data wherever it is in the network, our ConnectGuard is the encryption technology of choice for the financial sector. For an enterprise that relies on data integrity and customer trust, deploying Layer 1 network protection couldnt be more vital, commented Peter Atterlf, sales director, Nordics and Baltics, ADVA. Another important factor for major banks is the ability to harness the best available storage areas network protocols. Our continuing focus on innovation in this area is another reason why so many financial institutions are deploying our security technology.
