Optimised Encryption Operations
With customers demanding higher and higher performance, system vendors
must continue to deliver product improvements. However, achieving fast
encryption, such as wire-speed Gigabit SSL data transfer, has proved
problematic. Whilst hardware solutions such as ASICs promise high
performance, constraints such as bus latencies and sub-optimal packet
sizes mean that the throughput goals are often not realised.
Enjura's highly optimised software-based encryption functions, specially
tuned for the Intel Pentium 4 allow applications to deliver Gigabits/sec
encryption rates without the need for hardware.
Key Benefits
- Faster web-server response times and better throughput
- OpenSSL compatible API; no code changes required for web applications
- Reduced load on servers
- Better return on hardware investment
- No need for complex network or custom hardware
