Securing Network Traffic using MACSec Over Ethernet
June 29, 2020
In today’s digital age, networking requirements have become increasingly crucial. The possibility of unauthorized access to networks and confidential information have increased the need for secure network access.
In 2006, the IEEE officially identified a MAC Security standard, also known as MACSec/802.1AE and GCM-AES/GCM-AES-XPN Cipher Suite, to meet the requirements for secure data traversal. MACSec helps users to maintain confidentiality by securing the data with the use of secured point-to-point Ethernet links.
