Do I need to enable NAE on my cluster for extra security protection?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- NetApp Aggregate Encryption (NAE)
Answer
- No.
- NetApp Aggregate Encryption (NAE) does not provide any additional security / data at rest encryption benefits.
- NAE is used for systems that leverage Cross-volume deduplication which is on by default for All Flash FAS systems.
