Can Curtain e-locker protect data in Storage Area Network (SAN)?

0026 : Can Curtain e-locker protect data in Storage Area Network (SAN)?

Curtain e-locker can protect data in Storage Area Network (SAN). There are two scenarios below:

  • Scenario 1 – If the SAN is mapped to a Windows File Server as a shared resource (e.g. shared folder/drive), Curtain e-locker can be used to protect it by Curtain Server Plug-in (Ref. to FAQ 00192 – How to use Curtain e-locker to protect NAS through iSCSI? ).
  • Scenario 2 – If the SAN is directly accessed by users without going through Windows File Server, Curtain e-locker can only protect that SAN by Curtain (Ref. to FAQ 00257 – How to use Curtain client to setup protection ?).

P.S. Because most SAN systems are running on Linux and not allow people to install program/software on the SAN . That means we cannot install Curtain Server Plug-in on SAN.
