The Threat to Data Center Hard Drives

Overview In addition to online threats, sensitive information stored in data centers can be compromised by physical theft or misplacement of hard drives, or by a lack of vigilance in managing routine processes such as off-site maintenance and retirement. This exposure has been amply demonstrated by a series of reported data center security breaches that prove storage network hard drives are not nearly as static or safe as once thought. No matter how the data is compromised, the legal and financial repercussions can be severe. Security administrators must take steps to protect confidential information stored on data center drives. Encryption provides safe harbor for compliance with a growing body of regulatory requirements.
