If you handle regulated or classified data, “secure enough” is not a compliance status. You need hardware that carries the certifications on paper and holds up under real traffic.
The F5 rSeries r5920-DF and r10920-DF
The new r5920-DF and r10920-DF appliances are FIPS-ready, underscoring F5’s commitment to providing secure, robust, and reliable solutions. These powerful platforms deliver top-tier application services while meeting stringent security standards. This approach allows organizations to ensure that their critical data and applications are secure, performing optimally, and available at all times.
The r5920-DF and r10920-DF appliances are FIPS-ready, so you meet strict security standards without giving up application performance. In practice that means your critical data and applications stay protected, fast, and available at the same time. Here is what that buys you:
- Secure Encryption: FIPS-compliant algorithms and the Marvell NITROX III CNN35XX-NFBE HSM implemented within the F5 rSeries ensure the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive data. This is particularly crucial when handling classified or regulated information, such as personally identifiable information (PII) or financial data.
- Trusted Authentication: FIPS compliance requires robust authentication mechanisms, such as strong multifactor authentication and secure key management. The r5920-DF and r10920-DF enable organizations to enforce stringent access controls, ensuring that only authorized individuals can interact with applications and services.
- Regulatory Compliance: Many industries and government agencies have specific regulatory requirements, such as HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) in healthcare or PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) in the financial sector. The FIPS-ready r5920-DF and r10920-DF help organizations meet these regulations and demonstrate adherence to industry best practices.
- Advanced Threat Protection: F5’s rSeries provides the highest reliability, security, and access control for your critical applications with advanced network and application protections and mitigates attacks across your threat landscape.
- Scalability and Performance: Beyond its remarkable security features, the F5 rSeries shines in scalability and performance. Its highly efficient architecture can handle high volumes of traffic while ensuring optimal application performance and scalability through more FPGAs and ECC ciphers, increased CPU utilization, and a multi-tenancy architecture to consolidate application services on one platform. With F5 rSeries, you can plan for future performance needs today and then scale to meet your capacity requirements as they grow.
Whether it’s a government agency, a contractor, or a private sector business handling sensitive data, the F5 rSeries offers a cutting-edge solution that can keep up with evolving security needs and performance demands. This blend of security and scalability makes the F5 rSeries r5920-DF and r10920-DF a remarkable choice in today’s ever-expanding digital landscape while reinforcing F5’s commitment to delivering high-performance, scalable, and secure ADCs.
Whether you run a government agency, a contractor, or a private-sector business handling sensitive data, the F5 rSeries keeps pace with both your security requirements and your performance demands. That pairing of FIPS-ready security and headroom to scale is what makes the r5920-DF and r10920-DF worth a close look when you plan your next hardware refresh.
