Abstract

See full text

A system and method that utilize an encryption engine endpoint to encrypt data in a data storage system are disclosed. In the system and method, the client controls the encryption keys utilized to encrypt and decrypt data such that the encryption keys are not stored together with the encrypted data. Therefore, once data is encrypted, neither the host of the data storage system, nor the encryption engine endpoint have access to the encryption keys required to decrypt the data, which increases the security of the encrypted data in the event of, for example, the data storage system being accessed by an unauthorized party.
