Broadcom unveils Emulex Secure HBAs with post-quantum encryption – Blocks and Files

Emulex Secure host bus adapters (HBAs) from Broadcom now include post-quantum encryption algorithms and zero trust architecture to secure storage area network (SAN) data in flight.

HBAs are the endpoints in a Fiber Channel network connecting block access storage arrays to servers in what’s called a SAN. If data crossing the network is not encrypted, it could be accessed and copied. Encrypting HBAs secure all data crossing the SAN. Quantum computers, when and…
