Intel® QAT: Performance, Scale, and Efficiency

Accelerate data encryption and compression for applications from networking to enterprise, cloud to storage, and content delivery to database with Intel® QuickAssist Technology.

Compress and Encrypt Data in Any State

The exponential growth of data demands more efficient ways to handle data in process, in motion, or at rest. Intel® QAT saves cycles, time, space, and cost by offloading compute-intensive workloads to free up capacity.
