Applications - Information under threat
With the increased reliance on computer held information the need to ensure this information is secure when on tape has expanded into many differing areas. The application for both the Paranoia and SafeTape products is continuously increasing and includes
Secure Data Transit
Even the largest and most professional companies that offer to move your tapes from one site to another suggest that if the data is sensitive it should be encrypted. Many large data losses have occurred when tapes have been 'lost' in transit. If the data has been encrypted the data cannot be compromised.
Secure Data Vaulting
Once your tapes have been taken off-site, en route to the secure vaults the data is already at risk. Encrypting the data ensures the customer data remains secured whatever happens to the media.
Data Integrity
If your tape can be accessed then it can be changed without your knowledge and with no audit trail to track the changes. By encrypting the data you can be sure it cannot be changed.
Internal Privacy
If you need to share a large tape library there is always the concern that sensitive data from one system could be inadvertently read on another system. Utilising a Paranoia2 in-line from the system with secure data will ensure this cannot occur.
Medical Records
The requirement to ensure that patients medical records are kept confidential is understood all over the world. Many countries are aware of this and have introduced legislation to ensure that the records are kept confidential. Placing a Paranoia2 into the environment can ensure that the integrity of these records are not compromised.
