Abstract
A method of encryption management with host-side data reduction includes identifying data to be written to a storage array and compressing the data to generate compressed data. The method further includes encrypting the compressed data to generate an encrypted data packet. The method further includes adding, by a processing device of a host, a padding bit pattern to the encrypted data packet to generate a data block for storage. The method further includes sending the data block to the storage array.
