Cypher Stream
 Senetas CypherStream encryptor is a flexible new encryption platform that provides a purpose built data security solution for both point-point and fully meshed layer 2 & layer 3 Ethernet networks.
The CypherStream platform provides extreme versatility in performance, security and cost-effectiveness and is capable of securing both layer 2 (Ethernet) and layer 3 (IP) networks at line rates up to several hundred Megabits per second (model shown is up to 10Mbps only).
The platform is crypto-agile and supports user loaded algorithms via a simple software toolkit.
CypherStream is available in a cost-effective small desktop form factor for lower speed (< 10Mbps) branch or remote office connectivity and as a 19”rack mount appliance for higher line rate or central office connections.
Layer 2 encryption
 CypherStream is fully compatible with the Senetas premium CypherNet Ethernet encryption platform and is ideally suited for distributed network environments where high speed central office or data centre locations are connected to multiple remote or branch office sites.
CypherStream is managed by the same network management and certification tool CypherManager.
Layer 3 encryption
In its layer 3 mode of encryption, CypherStream will encrypt the contents of IP packets that are carried inside Ethernet frames.
CypherStream supports the industry standard IPSec and offers a switchable layer2/3 capability in one solution.
CypherNet Ethernet offers the following benefits:
- Common Criteria security*
- Switchable layer 2 and layer 3 encryption
- Operates in both Point-Point and Meshed topologies
- Fully compatible with CypherNet Ethernet encryptor (layer 2 mode)
- AES 256 bit encryption
- Crypto-agile support for customised algorithms
- Fully automatic key management
- Secure remote inband & out of band management with CypherManager
