Secure data storage

The Enova SecureNAS T1 is a 16-bay secure Network Attached Storage (NAS) system that integrates the company's latest FIPS 140-2 certified X-Wall MX-256 (AES ECB 256-bit strength) and X-Wall MX-256C (AES CBC 256-bit strength) crypto modules that are responsible for encrypting/decrypting connected disk arrays in real time. The AES secret keys that operate the SecureNAS T1 are delivered securely via a remote key server that runs under the administrator's Windows PC/laptop.

The 1804 Enova SecureNAS T1 is a 16-bay secure Network Attached Storage (NAS) system that integrates the company's latest FIPS 140-2 certified X-Wall MX-256 (AES ECB 256-bit strength) and X-Wall MX-256C (AES CBC 256-bit strength) crypto modules that are responsible for encrypting/decrypting connected disk arrays in real time. The AES secret keys that operate the SecureNAS T1 are delivered securely via a remote key server that runs under the administrator's Windows PC/laptop.

The entire disk array is hardware encrypted by the XWall MX crypto module (full disk encryption) and as a result, no clear text is left unprotected. The AES secret keys and credentials are not permanently stored inside the SecureNAS T1 so that loss of the entire system or disk drive array presents absolutely no threat to all confidential data.

    David Crawford looks how workzone safety can be ‘economically viable’. Highway maintenance is one of the most dangerous construction industry occupations in Europe. Research from The Netherlands on fatal crashes indicates that the risk facing road workzone operatives is ‘significantly higher’ than that for the general construction workforce. A survey carried out by the Highways Agency, which runs the UK’s motorway and trunk road network, has suggested that 20% of road workers have suffered injuries from pa

    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti

    New ways of gathering data can revolutionise traffic and travel management, so is the writing on the wall for the traditional methods? Jon Masters reports. There are two big industries that stand to be revolutionised by massive increases in data – healthcare and transportation, says Finlay Clarke, the UK managing director of the smartphone sat nav traffic app, Waze. “At present we’re really only at the start of how cities, in particular, will be transformed,” he says.
