Closing the Legacy Gap: Protecting Legacy Systems With FDE

Overview Protecting data is not only financially wise; it is often legally necessary. More companies are now implementing Full Disk Encryption (FDE) as part of a comprehensive data security program. Up until now, FDE was software-based with all the encryption algorithms processed by the computer's CPU. But with the introduction of hard disk drives with a dedicated encryption chip, FDE has become amazingly efficient and more secure. However, as with the advent of any new technology, there is a costly legacy gap which companies must cross in order to migrate from software-to hardware-based FDE while still protecting existing computer systems.
