SEDs are a powerful tool to protect data

Self-‐encrypRng drives (SEDs) for enterprise data at rest

SED Features: §  Ensures Safe Harbor for data privacy compliance without hindering IT efficiency §  Cryptographically erases drive in less than a second, enabling secure drive return, disposal, or reuse §  Automa7cally locks drive & secures data the moment a drive is removed, misplaced, or stolen

SED Benefits: § Data protec7on – without encryp7on key, drive is rendered unreadable §  Reduced TCO – eliminates costly overwri7ng/wiping process to simplify drive disposal §  Inexpensive storage – SEDs are comparably priced with standard hard disk drives §  Available on most System x pla9orms in various form factors, capaci7es & speeds*

SED Pain Points: §  Scalability and management – customers need a solu7on that can be centrally managed in local and distributed System x environments

Key challenges for data center reliability Cost of down9me is expensive

§ DownRme is not an opRon: - Mission-‐cri7cal workloads are the business lifeline - Virtualiza7on is now mainstream, driving higher levels of SLA

§ Significant disrupRons to business conRnuity -  Lost revenues and profits

• $686K per hour translates to $16.5M per day!

-  Reduced customer loyalty and sa7sfac7on -  Increased opera7onal costs and IT staff costs -  Reduced employee produc7vity
