To greatly enhance data privacy, HP EML Tape Libraries are available with LTO-6 Ultrium 6650,
LTO-5 Ultrium 3280 and LTO-4 Ultrium 1840 hardware encrypting tape drives for secure high
performance backups meeting consortium specifications.. HP Data Protector Software can enable
the drive encryption and provide basic key management capabilities. Additional information
regarding ISV’s supporting hardware encryption is available on the HP Enterprise Backup
Solutions (EBS) website at: www.hp.com/go/ebs. The encryption on LTO-6, LTO-5 and LTO-4
media occurs with or without compression, and without speed or capacity penalties. Hardware
encryption is not supported on LTO-2 and LTO-3 tapes.
LTO-6, LTO-5 and LTO-4 use the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with the longest and most
secure keys — 256 bits. AES-256 is implemented within Galois Counter Mode (GCM). This is a
method of increasing AES security by efficiently adding Message Authentication Codes to ensure
the integrity of the backup data stored on tape. The HP LTO-6, LTO-5 and LTO-4 tape drive(s) are
designed to be compliant with the standard for tape drive security (IEEE 1619.1).
ESKM: The HP Enterprise Secure Key Manager reduces your risk of a costly data breach and
reputation damage while improving regulatory compliance with a secure centralized encryption key
management solution for HP LTO-6, LTO-5 and LTO-4 enterprise tape libraries (EML & ESLG3).
In addition, the ESKM provides strong auditable security and reliable lifetime key archival. The
ESKM and LT0-6/LT0-5/LT0-4 drive encryption in the EML library provides a complete and secure
privacy solution to protect customers’ confidential data. Please note Secure Manager license is
required for CVTL to enable connection to ESKM.
