It can be software or hardware based. Any assistance would be appreciated. The current versions of Backup Exec support software-based encryption with the usual cpu-hit caveats. You can also go with something like a Decru DataFort - there is a SCSI variant as well as fibre variant. We use a bunch of these in front of our LTO-3 drives. If cost is the primary factor, then the software approach might be the cheapest. Depending on how many drives you have, it might also be cheaper to replace a single LTO-2 with an LTO-4 although then you don't think you get backwards read-compatibility for your LTO-2 tapes. Lots of options... .../Ed
