[Via Satellite 11-23-2015] ViaSat announced the availability of its first single-port 100 Gbps encryption device designed to scale from 10 to 40 to 100 Gbps, enabling customers to migrate their security infrastructure, as the demand for more bandwidth grows. The new high-speed Ethernet encryption appliance is part of a larger product family, which includes the SEC-1170, an Ethernet encryption appliance that scales from 10 to 40 to 100 Gbps; the SEC-1171 and SEC-1160, variants of the SEC-1170; and the SEC-1140V, ViaSat’s 1 Gbps virtual network function (VNF) encryption software, which enables enterprise customers to host security on their existing infrastructure as part of their future Network Function Virtualization (NFV) strategy.

ViaSat’ high-speed Ethernet encryption family includes multiple bandwidth profiles, low latency, streamline migration, interoperability with latest networking technologies, secure algorithms for optimal protection, and cryptographic isolation.

“Our first-to-market high-speed encryption device gives organizations that transmit sensitive intellectual property and business-critical data between sites, a proven encryption technology that is both fast and leverages the latest networking and security features to ensure data in transit will not be intercepted or exploited,” said Jerry Goodwin, chief operating officer of the government systems division at ViaSat.
