An effective storage management solution must consider the role of SAN security in ensuring network and data integrity. When Direct Attached Storage (DAS) was the majority of storage, security was not an issue. By preventing access to the server you could stop access to the server-owned storage resources of disk and tape.
Unlike DAS, Storage Area Networks (SANs) allow multiple access points. Holes in SAN security practices can threaten data integrity and system availability. Download this white paper to learn more.
