Dennis: You could take a look at our z/Encrypt Tape Encryption Appliance. It attaches via ESCON and appears just like a tape drive to your system. All data is encrypted using AES 256. More details can be found at www.zencrypt.com.

VM:Backup uses DES encryption. The DES standard is not approved for use within our company. Our Information Security people want AES, Triple DES, or a couple of the other more modern algorithms. Encryption in VM:Backup also doesn't help customers who need to encrypt VM:Spool, SPXTAPE, DB2/VM, VM:Backup HiDRO, DDR, or other backups that don't use VM:Backup.

VM:Backup has ENCRYPTION built in. Just add your key to an execption file. For more information, please contact CA Support
