ADVA Optical Networking's ConnectGuard(TM) Encryption Technology Key to
Selection
Nuremburg, Germany. October 20, 2015. ADVA Optical Networking announced today
that Consorsbank is using the ADVA FSP 3000 for secure connectivity between its
data centers. Consorsbank, one of Europe's leading direct banks, is leveraging
the platform for secure, ultra-fast, high-capacity optical communications. The
fully scalable solution comes with ADVA Optical Networking's ConnectGuard(TM)
technology, enabling Consorsbank to deliver huge amounts of data with the
protection of Layer 1 encryption. Part of the BNP Paribas group of financial
institutions, Consorsbank has over 800,000 digital banking clients and manages
assets worth over EUR 25 billion. That's why security and scalability were key
selection factors. The ADVA FSP 3000's 100Gbit/s capabilities enable Consorsbank
to grow its range of digital financial services and products in the future. ADVA
Optical Networking's long-term partner, Computacenter, Europe's leading
independent provider of IT infrastructure services, was instrumental in
designing and deploying the network.
"We're creating banking products for a digital world, services that instantly
respond to customers' needs," said Stephan Eck, senior team head, networking,
Consorsbank. "Now we can give our customers complete peace of mind thanks to
ADVA Optical Networking's ConnectGuard(TM) data security solution. Encryption at
the optical layer means they can be certain that their sensitive financial
information is safe as it moves between our data centers. It's also given us far
more capacity. Previously we managed with a limited number of leased fiber
channels. Now, with the ADVA FSP 3000, the amount of data we can transport has
massively increased. It puts us in control of the network so we can channel that
capacity where and when we need it. Flexibility means we can offer even more
because new services can be accessed and switched between data centers at the
push of a button. The installation was also incredibly fast and smooth, meaning
no disturbance at all to the banking experience our clients receive."
ADVA Optical Networking has a unique understanding of what's required in the
data center environment. It has over 20 years of experience in the enterprise
sector, particularly with some of world's largest financial institutions. Right
now, banks are all too aware of the growing threat from cybercrime and the
costly damage to reputation that comes from a data breach. Some, like
Consorsbank, are responding with the ultimate safety measures. That means
encrypting every bit of data in transit so that it cannot be deciphered even if
it is intercepted by a third party. Alongside this is the ADVA FSP 3000's
reliability. It ensures network downtime is kept to a minimum so that data is
constantly accessible - another essential component for 24-hour digital banking.
Then there's the scalability and 100Gbit/s capability of ADVA Optical
Networking's modular platform that ensures it's ready for growing customer
demands and further technical advances in the future.
"Working with Consorsbank was an exciting challenge. We were tasked with
integrating new technology into an existing network and the demands of 24-hour
digital banking meant it had to be installed with zero downtime," commented
Josef Sißmeir, director, sales, Central Europe, ADVA Optical Networking.
"Drawing on a huge amount of experience in the financial sector, our team was
able to create a parallel structure for soft migration, making the process
seamless. Consorsbank was immediately able to give their customers the assurance
of ConnectGuard(TM) protection not to mention the benefits of increased
efficiency and flexibility. Their ethos is to provide products that enhance the
lifestyles of people on the move. As a digital direct bank they believe in
leveraging the very latest communication technology. In fact, the Consorsbank
slogan 'Mobile, just like you' says it all. We're proud to empower them to
deliver smarter, faster, safer services."
