Secret Disk Server NG is the system of protection of corporate databases and confidential information on servers from unauthorized access. As a result of optimization of the used technologies users of the solution will increase the speed of work with the ciphered data on average by 30%.
According to the last research Gartner growth of amounts of data is one of the most serious problems for hardware infrastructure of most the large companies. It affects performance of systems and, often, leads to deceleration of work with the ciphered confidential information that is critical for business.
During tests of the solution in its different configurations the following average values were reached:
- double decrease in a response time of business applications and databases at a read and write of the ciphered data. Extraction of the ciphered files with a capacity of 50 GB from a DB of 1C takes no more than 10 minutes, from Lotus Notes – no more than 12 minutes;
30% increase in productivity of file and mail servers when enciphering information;
- 17% speeding up of a backup system of data of Symantec Backup Exec 2010 into the ciphered storage.
"Today data availability influences business processes and the profit of the companies more, than ever. If the company is faced by a problem of enciphering of personal data and confidential information, then the high speed of work with them – one of the main selection terms of means of protecting, ‑ comments Petrov Evgeny, the product manager of Secret Disk of Aladdin R.D. company. – Meeting needs of our customers who faced rapid growth of volumes of the ciphered data we updated our solution for server protection, having provided its bigger high-speed performance. Secret Disk Server NG is undemanding to hardware resources and allows users to work quickly even with very large volumes of information which is stored in CRM, personnel, ERP and other business systems".
2018: Prolongation of the FSTEC certificate of Russia

Classification by the level of absence control of not declared opportunities" (State Technical Commission of Russia, 1999) — on the 4th level of control (NDV 4) and also requirements of specifications. It allows to use SDS NG in personal data information systems to 1 level of security inclusive and the state information systems up to 1 class of security inclusive and also during creation of automated information systems to a class of security 1G inclusive.
Positive results of passing of inspection control demonstrate that the software package SDS NG is created taking into account the requirements to information security support and reliability of work shown by big state and corporate customers.
According to the requirements to deliveries of the certified products approved by FSTEC of Russia, the certified version of SDS NG is delivered only as a part of a set (Media Kit) on the optical medium of information containing the verified SDS NG distribution kit and necessary documentation.

Secret Disk Server NG 3.6
The Aladdin R.D. company, the Russian developer of solutions on information security, announced in November, 2011 a release of new version (3.6) of Secret Disk Server NG — a hardware and software system for ensuring safe work with the confidential information which is stored on the corporate server.
Data encryption on file servers and application servers — one of the most relevant tasks of corporate customers. Their successful solution is a condition of stabilization and business continuity, and in some cases — the direct requirement of the Russian legislation. The HSS of Secret Disk Server NG allows to cipher disks, transforming them to the protected volumes. At the same time the connected protected disk is used in the same way as normal, and disconnected is presented in a system in the form of an unformatted disk, says Aladdin R.D.
In version 3.6 the possibility of placement of the virtual ciphered disks on network resources is implemented that allows to use remote data warehouses and the file servers and also the support of SafeNet Authentication Client (SAC) of version 8.1 expanding possibilities of customers on creation of a flexible information security system of the enterprise.
Secret Disk Server NG allows to cipher separate hard drives of the server, any disk arrays (external and internal, program and hardware RAIDs) and also removable disks (for example, connected to the server for backup). At data reading from a disk there is their deciphering, at disk writing — encryption. Thus, the data which are on a disk are always protected from unauthorized access, even in case of withdrawal of a separate disk or all server entirely. At this Secret Disk Server NG not only protects data, but also suppresses the fact of their existence on the server.
Secret Disk Server NG 3.6 is recommended for universal use as replacement of the previous versions of a system and also for all new installations. In the version of a product support of Windows 2000 Server is excluded, users of this system need to update the operating system to the supported versions or to use Secret Disk Server NG 3.6.
User support of Secret Disk Server NG 3.6 will be performed till October, 2012.
