DBaaS Encryption
E2E Networks' DBaaS Encryption ensures the confidentiality and integrity of database data by encrypting storage volumes at rest within DBaaS. This feature protects sensitive database workloads from unauthorized access—even in cases of hardware theft or system compromise. Leveraging industry-standard encryption protocols and integrated key management, E2E provides seamless and secure handling of encryption keys. The encryption is implemented transparently at the infrastructure level, ensuring that both system and application-level database data are protected with minimal impact on performance. This makes it ideal for production-grade DBaaS deployments and compliance-driven use cases such as financial services, healthcare, and regulated industries.
How E2E Networks DBaaS Encryption works
- You can enable encryption for DBaaS on E2E Networks. When creating a DBaaS, users can enable encryption by selecting the "Enable Encryption" checkbox. Additionally, an optional passphrase can be provided to further enhance the security of the encrypted DBaaS.
- E2E Networks leverages LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup) for full disk encryption at the block device level. This means the entire database storage—including logs, indexes, and data files—is secured using the aes-xts-plain64 cipher with a 512-bit encryption key, providing high-assurance protection against unauthorized data access.
- Encryption is applied at the infrastructure layer, allowing DBaaS workloads to run securely without requiring application-level changes. This minimizes performance overhead while preserving high throughput for database operations.
- With seamless encryption management through the MyAccount portal, E2E Networks empowers teams to safeguard DBaaS environments, meet regulatory requirements, and confidently run sensitive workloads in a secure, cloud-native infrastructure.
