Description
The Certes Networks CEP VSE encryptors are a family of high performance network encryption appliances that offer line rate multi-layer encryption at speeds from 10 Mbps up to 10 Gbps for Ethernet, IP, and MPLS networks. The CEP VSE family can be centrally managed with the simple drag-and-drop interface of Certes TrustNet Manager. TrustNet Manager provides centralized policy and key management, logging and auditing for the entire network. The CEP100 VSE and CEP1000 VSE provide data confidentiality, data integrity and data authentication for network traffic at bit rates from 75 Mbps to 1 Gbps.
