Case Studies
Optical Network Security
A new threat to data has emerged – data theft. The increasing amount of business critical electronic information being stored in remote data centers for backup and disaster recovery purposes is forcing IT managers to reassess the security of their networks, where data can potentially become vulnerable to theft through interception.

Application Note
Over the past five years, Storage Area Networks (SAN) have rapidly developed. Confined to a single corporate site, SANs were traditionally designed to improve internal resource utilization and to store business data locally. Such deployments, however, had severe limitations, restricting resource sharing across sites and creating potential corporatewide vulnerability.
Financial and regulatory demands have now forced IT managers to reassess their data center storage strategy. Enterprises including financial institutions, insurance companies and utilities that require flexible, robust
and customized network solutions have started to employ geographically dispersed SANs. Disaster recovery concepts that guarantee the survival of essential data even in case of a catastrophic failure have become a mandatory design requirement.

OPTICAL NETWORK ENCRYPTION – A NEW KEY TO DATA SECURITY
Data security is not a single feature, but rather an increasingly important set of technologies, used to safeguard private data sent across both public and private networks. The proliferation of data requiring protection – whether internal corporate data or records containing information on customers or other associates – means there is more data at risk of being compromised than ever before.
This, in conjunction with the increasing cost of a data breach, measured in both hard-dollar terms like legal settlements and soft costs such as loss of customer loyalty, makes the intelligent use of data protection technologies increasingly necessary for organizations of all sizes.

DOES SAN FINALLY GO ETHERNET?
As the global economic outlook continues to worsen, enterprises are being forced to reassess their data center strategies. Struggling against rising energy bills, increases in capital and operating expenditures, and growing public demand for greener networks, IT managers are starting to explore converged networking solutions to develop a single homogonous data center infrastructure that could potentially eliminate inefficiencies and significantly reduce costs.
