B Enhancing Security with Data Encryption

HPE 3PAR Data Encryption security feature allows you to encrypt all specifically formatted drives
on the system with an authentication key and the use of self encrypting drives (SEDs) or Federal
Information Processing Standard (FIPS) capable drives.
When a Data Encryption license is registered, you must manually enable the encryption feature
on the system. When the encryption feature is enabled successfully, all the drives in the system
become automatically set in an encrypted state.
NOTE: To review the encryption status of individual drives within the system, use the 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
