Telindus Telecom strengthens the security of its operator network and cloud services with ADVA Optical Networking
Telindus Telecom deploys ADVA Optical Networking’s Encryption Technology to secure its cloud Services
Luxembourg, November 26, 2014 – Telindus Telecom has deployed the ADVA FSP 3000, a scalable optical transport solution with advanced encryption technology, to ensure the security of its cloud services. ADVA Optical Networking is the European leader for connectivity solutions that support cloud and mobile services. It offers innovative solutions that are easy to integrate into datacenter environments and meet the most demanding users’ expectations in terms of performance (latency, security, scalability ...) and cost reduction. Telindus Telecom’s cloud infrastructure is focused on serving Luxembourg’s enterprise market with high requirements regarding security and confidentiality. Hence it is imperative that it features the most robust protection possible. ADVA Optical Networking’s encryption technology will safeguard all data as it travels between Telindus Telecom’s multiple datacenter locations and ensures continuous access to mission-critical cloud-based business services.
“The security and availability of our customers’ data have always been of paramount importance to us and a top priority in our solution design,” said Jacques Ruckert, Director Products and Solutions, Telindus Luxembourg. “With the rapid migration of our customers to cloud-based services, security and availability become even more critical. That is why we are working with the ADVA Optical Networking team: their solutions are widely adopted for their encryption capabilities, especially within the enterprise community. Protecting our customers’ mission-critical data with ADVA technology provides peace of mind and the guarantees that their data is safe and secure in the cloud.”
Ensuring the security of data in cloud infrastructures has been a focus of ADVA Optical Networking for many years. Its encryption technology is engineered to suit the needs of a broad range of enterprise demands. Its protocol agnostic design enables it to transport any traffic, including Fibre Channel, InfiniBand and Ethernet. It encrypts every bit of data that passes through a client port, not just the payload or select bytes, and does so at the lowest network layer. It also adds very little latency, something that cannot be said for higher-layer encryption methods. For Telindus Telecom and its customers, the ADVA Optical Networking solution is not only a secure means of data transport, it’s also a competitive edge.
“Telindus Telecom has an enviable reputation when it comes to cloud-based services. It has won numerous awards and accolades for its offerings. Telindus Telecom was the only one in Luxembourg to join the top 3 of the best European Eurocloud players for the quality of its offer” commented Yann Evain, Sales Director, ADVA Optical Networking. “This success is one of the key reasons that it continually needs to advance, to push the boundaries of its network and its customers’ expectations. That is why our ADVA FSP 3000 with encryption technology is such a good match. It not only meets its network needs today, but also tomorrow, especially when it begins the migration to 100Gbit/s data rates and 16Gbit/s Fibre Channel. As the unique selected member of our Partner Ecosphere Program in Luxembourg, Telindus Telecom’s network will be regularly audited and improved to boost its performance. It will hence increase the quality of service offered to its customers with unique solutions in Luxembourg (such as encryption on cloud services). Our team is looking forward to helping Telindus Telecom with this journey.”
