Britestream Networks provides a breakthrough solution for the growing challenge of data privacy and regulary compliance. For web, email and application servers the Britesream BN1200 offers hardened security, very low latency and 100% SSL offload. The Britestream solution removes all barriers and penalties to deploying—and ensuring—secure transmissions. For data network applicances such as SSL VPNs, load balancers and application accelerators, the BN1200 offers rapid integration, high transaction performance and cross-platform operating system compatibility. Britestream delivers a comprehensive product offering to address the growing need for secure end-to-end data transmissions across the network. Fortified Security The Britestream solution is based upon SSL, the industry standard for data encryption, plus it offers additional security than software-based SSL solutions. The Britestream NIC allows private keys and certificates to be stored within the tamper-resistent hardware. It is not dependent upon any potentially vulnerable operating system. It also does not require regular patching or updates. The BN1200 supports advanced cryptographic functions by allowing the usage of 1K, 2K or 4K RSA key sizes, as well as supporting a variety of encryption algorithms, including AES, ARC4, 3DES and DES. Scalable Performance By providing 100% SSL offload the host CPU can avoid suffering “the security penalty” that oftentimes comes with SSL processing. Performance is further enhanced with the BN1200 by delivering up to 50 times greater throughput than software-based SSL solutions. Latency is also drastically decreased as TCP connection grooming reassembles and delivers “clean” data streams to the server, offloading this function from the host CPU and memory. For high availability requirements, the BN1200 also supports load balancing and automatic failover. Key Benefits Tamper resistant, hardware-based solution protects encryption keys and certificates ensuring fortified security. Supports industry security standards SSL and TLS. Frees valuable CPU resources by offloading 100% of SSL processing. Enables end-to-end data privacy from the browser or client application to the application server. Allows both internal and external data transmissions to be secure by default. Lowers total cost of operations by eliminating the need for additional servers and licensing fees. Support for common operating systems provides flexible deployment options.

BN1200 SSL Security NIC The award-winning Britestream technology provides a secure, scalable and simple solution to processing SSL-encrypted network traffic. Britestream Networks provides a breakthrough solution for the growing challenge of data privacy and regulary compliance.

For web, email and application servers the Britesream BN1200 offers hardened security, very low latency and 100% SSL offload. The Britestream solution removes all barriers and penalties to deploying—and ensuring—secure transmissions.

For data network applicances such as SSL VPNs, load balancers and application accelerators, the BN1200 offers rapid integration, high transaction performance and cross-platform operating system compatibility. Britestream delivers a comprehensive product offering to address the growing need for secure end-to-end data transmissions across the network.

Fortified Security

The Britestream solution is based upon SSL, the industry standard for data encryption, plus it offers additional security than software-based SSL solutions. The Britestream NIC allows private keys and certificates to be stored within the tamper-resistent hardware. It is not dependent upon any potentially vulnerable operating system. It also does not require regular patching or updates. The BN1200 supports advanced cryptographic functions by allowing the usage of 1K, 2K or 4K RSA key sizes, as well as supporting a variety of encryption algorithms, including AES, ARC4, 3DES and DES.

Scalable Performance

By providing 100% SSL offload the host CPU can avoid suffering “the security penalty” that oftentimes comes with SSL processing. Performance is further enhanced with the BN1200 by delivering up to 50 times greater throughput than software-based SSL solutions. Latency is also drastically decreased as TCP connection grooming reassembles and delivers “clean” data streams to the server, offloading this function from the host CPU and memory. For high availability requirements, the BN1200 also supports load balancing and automatic failover.
