Solarflare SolarSecure NIC

SolarSecure is a portfolio of security services which are shipped with every XtremeScale™ 8000 Series Solarflare NIC. Using the SolarSecure Manager, security policies can be micro segmented, packet surveillance can be initiated, and firewalls can be configured for each local TCP/IP address including learn and enforce modes, white listing or black listing; alerts, and cloaking a server by dropping packets.

• An Important New Best Practice —Driven by hyperscale CSPs, the deployment of server firewalls is a new best practice for securing traffic inside the data center.
• Secure Every Server—Because SolarSecure resides on a NIC that’s in every server, it’s time to think in terms of firewalling every server in the data center with its own monitoring, alerting and locking policy.
• Tamper-Resistant—The hardware based solution requires no software on the application servers, making SolarSecure highly tamper resistant, even to hackers with server and switch OS root permissions.
• Packet-Level Security Analytics—The XtremePacket Engine inside Solarflare NIC ASICs inspects every packet in real-time, and the network flow data is used by SolarSecure and third party software for packet-level security analytics.
• Ultra Low Latency— Inspecting every packet adds less than 250ns of latency, 10x faster than firewall appliances. SolarSecure is also interoperable with Solarflare Onload™ kernel bypass software for application acceleration.
• Highly Scalable—Scales to thousands of servers by simply enabling firewalls on your Solarfare NICs.
• Open Architecture—Use SolarSecure management and analytics, or integrate with your framework of choice.
