Encryption kills performance: Now You can encrypt MPLS without impacting quality or performance

Encryption kills performance: Now You can encrypt MPLS without impacting quality or performance
Latency has traditionally been one of the major drawbacks of encryption.
Even with an accelerator card in place there can be as much as an 80% drop in performance on a WAN link while encrypting.
No amount of cryptographic acceleration can help because encryption is not the only cause of latency.
Other contributors are massive policy maps and the associated look-ups that get created when an any-to-any network is relegated into point-to-point relationships.
Latency can also be caused by the repeated passing of packets through the router backplane.
Group Encryption does not impact network performance. Because Group Encryption does not impact the underlying infrastructure or impose point-to-point connections, any topology can be secured without modifications.
Full mesh networks can be encrypted while preserving Layer-4 services VoIP can be encrypted without impacting call quality Dual carrier networks can be secured without impacting SLAs Load balanced networks can be secured without impacting high availability
Encrypt latency sensitive application such as Voice and Video Because the complexity of tunnels and the latency-inducing policy look-ups are avoided, voice and video can be secured without hampering quality.
