BOSaNOVA, Inc., a market leader in development of security solutions, thin clients and network appliances, and Barsa Consulting Group, LLC, a premier IBM Business Partner specializing in IBM System i hardware, software, and services, have announced a reseller partnership between the two companies to market BOSaNOVA's Q3 storage security encryption appliance.
Designed to be strong, simple, and non-intrusive, Q3 encrypts backup data without any effect on corporate networks or current backup procedures. The appliance is installed between the tape drive and the server and no changes are required to either. The appliance has been tested to work with many servers and tape drives, including the IBM System i server and LTO tape drives. With dual soft keys entered by users and a hard key unique to the specific customer, the Q3's two-factor authentication allows for strong, yet simple key management. Additionally, this powerful solution features strong encryption with its unique dual interlaced encryption modes.
"BOSaNOVA is pleased to partner with Barsa Consulting, not only because of their expertise and reputation in the System i market, but because they share our commitment to protecting customers from the danger of data security breaches," says Martin Pladgeman, BOSaNOVA president. "Many System i customers are not aware that it's as easy to read System i backup data to a PC as it is any other type of data. It's great to have experienced resellers like Barsa to educate System i customers on the importance of encrypting their data at rest."
"Customers are looking for a tape encryption solution that's secure, simple, and proven," says Al Barsa, president of Barsa Consulting Group. "The Q3 meets that criteria and extends their investments in existing backup equipment."
The Q3 is immediately available for purchase through Barsa Consulting. For sales information contact Barsa Consulting at (914) 253-8181, or write
