Abstract

See full text

On an archive server, a secure storage control layer is interposed in the archive data stream between an archiving application and a storage device driver. The secure storage control layer includes an encryption engine providing for two-level cipher processing of data segments transported by the stream. A secure policy controller is coupled to the secure storage control layer and, responsive to identifying information obtained from the stream, retrieves a group of encryption keys from a secure storage repository to enable the encryption engine to selectively encrypt data segments or a single encryption key conditionally enabling the encryption engine to decrypt select data segments. For both encryption and decryption, the integrity of the stream is maintained allowing operation of the secure storage control layer to be functionally transparent to the archiving application and storage device driver.
