By connecting branches and facilities across Mexico, the financial institution's VPN services are now protected by ADVA's FSP 150 edge appliances with ultra-secure Layer 2 encryption. ConnectGuard™ Ethernet encrypts Ethernet traffic with line-rate performance for the lowest latency and highest throughput. It also eliminates the complexity and performance cost associated with other data protection techniques. Based on the Advanced Encryption Standard, ConnectGuard™ Ethernet uses cryptographic techniques including dynamic key exchange and hardware tamper protection. It is based on an enhanced version of MACsec with an additional tunnel overlay, so no infrastructure needs to be replaced.
