Multi-Carrier WAN Encryption

Certes Networks provides the only solutions that allow you to encrypt multi-carrier networks with a single, provider-neutral network encryption solution. Our solutions provide AES 256 payload encryption and persistent authentication over any combination of networks without impacting availability or service level agreements.

Powered by Certes TrustNet Manager™, our web-based security management platform, security teams can deploy a network security solution that is completely transparent to the underlying WAN infrastructure, regardless of how many of vendors or providers make up the network and regardless of what transport technology they use.

TrustNet simplifies security management while preserving network performance and functionality. The solution leverages our unique multi-layer group encryption capabilities to provide a tunnel-less standards-based encryption while preserving all network headers from Layer 2 to Layer 4. This allows you to maintain service level agreements and preserve network-based services. It also eliminates the need to touch the service provider's premise routers when provisioning security.

The result is a scalable and transparent encryption solution that you can easily manage without having to coordinate your security through your service provider. Our centralized management and tunnel-less approach reduces the time and resources required to manage the encrypted network, and allows you to secure even the largest networks in minutes.

The solution can also be offered as a managed security service from one of your service providers, without coordination between providers. No other WAN encryption solution offers you this flexibility.

WAN Encryption Use Case

Click to open larger diagram

Problem:
Customers will often use two separate MPLS providers for redundancy and high availability. Carriers aren't allowed to set up and manage IPsec VPNs on other carrier's routers. IPsec VPNs do not scale and are not compatible with most network services

Solution: Deploy Certes Networks appliances using Layer 3 encryption on LAN side of each carrier's customer edge (CE) router. Devices are independent of both MPLS networks. Encryptors can be managed even if one of the MPLS networks is not accessible. Group encryption efficiently replaces point-to-point IPsec VPNs.

Benefits:

  • No change to existing infrastructure
  • No interference with existing SLAs
  • No disruption of NAT, Netflow/Jflow, Cos or QoS, or other network services
