Abstract :
Increasing availability and decreasing prices of encryptors raise the question, "Can secure and regular network traffic be carried over one infrastructure?" If this is feasible without compromising the security of network data or attached systems, benefits in both money and reliability can be realized. This paper examines the trends in encryption hardware, presents a possible consolidated architecture, highlights potential benefits, and discusses obstacles and details that would need to be worked out before wide-spread adoption
