Yesterday I posted a quick video overview of a couple new features that are part of vSAN 6.6. (haven’t seen it, go watch that one first!) I mentioned in that demo that I would potentially do one on Encryption. As I had over a dozen people asking already I figured I would throw a demo together today. Build an environment in our development cloud and below is the result. In the demo we will show how to configure vSAN Encryption and more. Oh, 1080p version can be found here. Enjoy.
If I understand correctly, data only travels unencrypted between the cache and the data storage device (capacity) during de-duplication or compression (only if those features are enabled) and is then re-encrypted before before written to the cluster? Thank you!
