Enhancing security with data encryption

The HPE 3PAR Data Encryption security feature enables you to encrypt all specifically formatted drives
with an authentication key and the use of Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) capable HPE
3PAR StoreServ Storage drives.
When a Data Encryption license is registered, you must manually enable the encryption feature on the
HPE 3PAR StoreServ Storage system. When the encryption feature is enabled successfully, all the
installed drives become automatically set in an encrypted state.
NOTE: To review the encryption status of individual drives, use the HPE 3PAR StoreServ Management
Console (SSMC).
This feature allows you to perform the following encryption-related tasks:
• Check encryption status
• Enable encryption
• Back up an authentication key
• Restore an authentication key
• Generate a new key
• Recover a key
For more information about enabling the feature, see the HPE 3PAR StoreServ Management Console
