Data security and encryption

Ironclad protection to ensure data remains confidential

Is your data secure in transit?

The challenge

Escalating cybersecurity threats are intensifying pressures to detect and mitigate breaches. Network providers must protect sensitive customer and operational data—as well as their network infrastructure—with the right security measures.

Our approach

Ciena uses a comprehensive strategy built upon proven encryption technology, including OTNsec and MACsec capabilities to ensure all critical in-flight data on your network remains confidential.

The benefits

Ensure that all in-flight data remain secure all the time with multi-layer encryption capabilities that provide a high degree of data security for cost-effective, scalable encryption solutions that are easy to deploy.

The network provides improved scalability, security, capacity and low latency to support the growing high-bandwidth requirements of our customers. It’s also a real benefit to be able to increase capacity quickly going forward, to meet future demands.
