World-level security
World-level security lets external users access corporate web servers behind firewalls and allows encrypted tapes to be transported and vaulted off site. World-level security encompasses the enterprise level and the data center level.
Table: Types of world-level security
Type | Description |
|---|---|
World-level external users | Specifies that external users can access web servers behind firewalls. External users cannot access or use NetBackup functionality from the Internet, because the external firewall prevents NetBackup ports from being accessed. |
World-level Internet | Specifies a collection of interconnected computer networks that are linked by copper wires, fiber cables, and wireless connections. Corporate web servers can be accessed from the Internet by using HTTP ports through firewalls. |
World-level WAN | The Wide Area Network (WAN) is not shown in the security overview illustration. The WAN is a dedicated high-speed connection used to link NetBackup data centers that are geographically distributed. |
World-level transport | Specifies that a transport truck can move encrypted client tapes off-site to secure vault facilities. |
World-level vault off-site | Specifies that encrypted tape can be vaulted at secure storage facilities other than the current data center. |
