Enterprises depend upon information for their business functions and security and storage of all important information is critical to its existence. MaXXan believes that management and storage protection services are best deployed within the SAN fabric for maximum cost efficiency and minimal overhead on servers and storage devices. MaXXan also believes that the SSAP will be a key element in enabling the evolution of SANs toward true Application Oriented Storage Networks (AOSN) and the eventual merger of all enterprise networks into one.

What makes MaXXan Systems, Inc. an Info Security "Hot Company" 2006
Products & Technologies
A key element enabling the evolution of SANs toward Application Oriented Storage Networks (AOSN). MaXXan’s SSAP is available in a variety of models, scaling from a 2U SX (up to 16 ports) to a 5U MXV250 (up to 64 ports), and to a 20U MXV500 (up to 256 ports). MaXXan’s SSAP is an enterprise-class platform which is customized to provide high-performance processing for storage applications, such as data protection (e.g. encryption) and data management (e.g. virtualization), at the port level. This allows the deployment of storage applications in the network without having to use external appliances that increase latency and limit throughput and scalability.
Maxxan has added high-speed data-at-rest encryption support to its innovative MXV Series of Secure Storage Application Platforms. With the ability to scale from 16 to 256 ports, this unique solution is targeted at enterprise users looking to encrypt data across disk or tape SANs.
Industry First - MaXXan was first to market in March 2003 a Secure Storage Application Platform (SSAP) that enabled the centralized integration of intelligent storage applications.
