Storage encryption

The Storage encryption supports encryption of data at rest. Data encryption protects user data if the protection system is stolen or if the physical storage media is lost during transit, and it eliminates accidental exposure of a failed drive if it is replaced.

When data enters the protection system using any of the supported protocols, the stream is segmented, fingerprinted, and de-duplicated (global compression). It is grouped into multi-segment compression regions, locally compressed, and encrypted before being stored to disk.

Once enabled, the encryption feature encrypts all data entering the system. You cannot enable encryption at a more granular level.
