Hewlett-Packard StorageWorks division has announced the launch of the HP
StorageWorks Secure Key Manager to reduce the risk of a costly data breach and
reputation damage while improving regulatory compliance with a secure
centralized encryption key management solution for HP enterprise tape libraries.

Designed expressly for the business continuity, the new HP StorageWorks
Secure Key Manager automates key generation and management based on security
policies for multiple libraries. It is a hardened server appliance delivering
secure identity-based access, administration and logging with auditable
security. Additionally, the Secure Key Manager provides lifetime key archival
with automatic multi-site key replication, clustering and failover capabilities.

The HP StorageWorks Secure Key Manager consolidates key management for
encryption devices deployed in enterprise and mid-sized businesses. Security is
improved by providing a single control point across the data center.
