LSI SafeStore Encryption Services
LSI SafeStore Encryption Services can encrypt data on the drives and use the drive-based key management to provide
data security. This solution protects data in the event of theft or loss of physical drives. If you remove a self-encrypting
drive from its storage system or the server in which it resides, the data on that drive is encrypted, and becomes useless
to anyone who attempts to access it without the appropriate security authorization.
4.9.1
