That is probably the reason that our auditors decided that we should implement a encryption package on a different server, in the second server room, to do the encryption on all UNIX and NT servers(which can be shifted be a single man). They claim that it is useless to have the decryption code on the same device as the physical disk that is being encrypted... until the network link to both the encryption servers are down...
My question is this... if hardware encryption becomes available on 3590/2's will the encryption be programmed, and how will the DR site cope...
