DECRU® ENCRYPTION SERVICE

Strengthen data protection without slowing recovery

Without the right technology, encryption can slow the backup process to an unacceptable degree and hinder timely recovery following a data loss. With Iron Mountain Decru Encryption Service, an appliance-based solution, you can encrypt backup tapes efficiently, without compromising your disaster recovery plans.

Decru Encryption:

• Makes data unreadable - and therefore useless – if it’s lost or stolen
• Supports compliance requirements for protecting sensitive information
• Provides a consistent approach to encryption across your enterprise
• Speeds site-level recovery through an appliance-based solution
• Enables transparent deployment without disrupting existing infrastructure

Appliance-based encryption

Iron Mountain selected Decru DataFort storage security appliances for our own backup tape encryption, and we recommend the technology to our customers.

Unified platform

The Decru solution provides a unified platform for encrypting data so it is well protected while physically transported to an offsite storage location, or stored in a secure vault.

Military-grade

Wire-speed encryption is made possible by a high-throughput, low-impact configuration and data compression, which reduces storage costs and requires less management overhead. Protection and accountability are assured through AES-256 military-grade encryption, access controls, and tamper-proof auditing.
