The Cisco SSL Module (part number: CSS5-SSL-K9=) is a dedicated cryptographic accelerator designed to enhance the performance of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) operations within Cisco networking environments. This module is specifically engineered to offload SSL processing, helping reduce the central processing unit (CPU) workload on routers, switches, or load balancers, thereby improving overall network efficiency and responsiveness during secure communications.
With the Cisco SSL Module, organisations can achieve faster SSL transaction processing and improve the scalability of their secure network services. The module supports up to 300 SSL handshakes per second, making it suitable for high-demand environments that handle numerous secure transactions. This is particularly beneficial for data centres or enterprises that handle significant volumes of encrypted traffic.
The module integrates with Cisco solutions for end-to-end encryption, ensuring that sensitive data remains protected during transit, while allowing for more robust secure network implementations. It supports a wide range of encryption algorithms and cryptographic standards to comply with industry protocols, bolstering the security infrastructure.
Key benefits of the Cisco SSL Module include an improvement in SSL throughput, enabling users to deliver SSL-encrypted content reliably without bottleneck issues. Additionally, it allows admins to save on processing resources by offloading encryption and decryption tasks to a dedicated appliance, thus optimising the performance of other critical network features.
