NanoSec™
Mocana NanoSec™
Mocana delivers an open standards based, full featured, RFC compliant Embedded IPsec and IKE solution that also offers IKEv1, IKEv2 and MOBIKE support. The Mocana NanoSec is a high performance, small footprint software, that resides on a device and provides data confidentiality, integrity and authentication between networked peers at the IP layer. Mocana NanoSec is uniquely architected with an asynchronous core to fully leverage hardware acceleration. It is ideally suited to securing voice, video and data networks.
IPsec Overview
IPsec is a standard for securing (IP) Internet Protocol communications by encrypting and/or authenticating all packets at the network layer. IPsec operates at layer (3) in the OSI stack. There are two protocols defined in IPsec: Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Authentication Header (AH). ESP provides authentication (to ensure peers are communicating with the intended trusted parties), data confidentiality (to ensure data cannot be read in transit) and message integrity (to ensure traffic has not been altered in transit). AH provides authentication and message integrity. IKE (Internet Key Exchange) is the protocol used to set up a security association in the IPsec suite. VoIP using IPsec helps reduce the threat of packet sniffers and man in the middle attacks.
