Announcing Legion Edge Encryptor

BroadbridgeEncryptor_Release-092120Fremont, CA – September 21, 2020 – Broadbridge Networks announces commercial availability of Legion Edge Encryptor^™, an affordable, plug-n-play Layer 2 network security appliance with line-rate AES-GCM encryption at speeds up to 100Gbit, meeting cryptographic requirements for securing traffic against quantum attacks on networks designated SECRET or TOP-SECRET.

Legion Edge Encryptor^™ provides point-to-point, or point-multipoint, encrypted network tunneling, securely joining multiple networks at unprecedented scale & performance. Legion Edge Encryptor^™ easily integrates with current network infrastructure, providing transparent connectivity between local or remote hosts, regardless of the distance.

“I’m extremely proud of the work we’ve done on Encryptor, it’s truly a zero-compromise solution,” says Broadbridge Principal Systems Architect Jonathan Flack, “but I’m most proud of the value we deliver.   Cyber adversaries never rest, so we’re excited to provide cost-effective, compliant MACsec solutions in support of NSA B-Suite & CNSA cryptography.”

Not only does the Legion Edge Encryptor^™ offer more improved security & performance, it does so at half the CapEx cost.

Unlike IPsec based VPN solutions which secure the data itself, Legion Edge Encryptor^™ employs Layer 2 MACsec, securing not only the data in transit, but the links themselves at the hardware level. Legion Edge Encryptor^™ secures all traffic, including DHCP, ARP, as well as traffic from higher layer protocols.

Available options include Netflow based monitoring and graphical traffic analysis.

Legion Edge Encryptor^™ is immediately available on Dell Virtual Edge Platform 1425, and 1445 supporting network speeds up to 10Gbit. Support for networks up to 100Gbit delivers September 29.
