Benefits

AEP Net EC100M is a high-security VPN security gateway that offers superior performance. It is designed specifically for sophisticated and strategic infrastructure projects such as Public Service network environments that demand high availability, flexibility and easy management.

Net EC100M is a managed encryption solution that protects IP traffic across networks. The encryptors provide both data confidentiality and source authentication for network traffic, resulting in high-confidence VPN communications. By protecting data on 100Mbps backbone networks, Net enables the high level of service required by the next generation of large-scale Public Sector infrastructure projects, such as departmental Intranets and inter-departmental Extranets at national and international levels.

Net EC100M is the most recent addition to the Net family. With a radically expanded bandwidth capability and an increased data throughput of 100 Mbps full duplex, it is capable of supporting data center throughput for the most demanding of networks. Net EC100M integrates fully with Net EC20M enabling new or existing users to design networks with both 10Mbps and 100Mbps encrypted connections."

The Net EC100M encryption solution is designed to keep management costs to a minimum requiring no more than five days management effort annually. Net?s highly-functional management system and the ?fit-and-forget? operation of the encryptors distinguishes it from competing products.

Following stringent evaluation, Net EC100M has achieved formal approval from the UK Government CESG Assisted Products Scheme at ?Baseline Grade?, a security rating for the protection of classified information recognized across Europe.
