Certes Networks has signed a managed services partnership with Ascent Data, a cloud computing and data center service provider. Under the new agreement, Ascent Data will provide a fully managed Encryption-as-a-Service offering, under the name Ascent DataGuard, using Certes Networks’ multi-layer, wire-speed encryption appliances.
Ascent DataGuard secures data in motion and is especially useful to companies looking to adopt cloud networking. Available as a standalone product, Ascent DataGuard can also be combined with Ascent2Cloud for cloud computing or Ascent DataColo for colocation. Powered by Certes Networks’ TrustNet Manager, Ascent DataGuard protects data on the network without affecting network performance.
The new Ascent DataGuard separates security and infrastructure management roles while preserving network performance and functionality. For more information, visit www.ascentdata.com.
