If you're looking for hardware-based encryption you probably need to look for Sun T10000B or LTO 4 or 5 drives with Encryption enabled. Usually hardware-based solutions like those from Quantum or Storage Tek (Sun, oh, sorry Oracle) have their own KMS appliances with key management and replication across different sites, but as guys have mentioned above there is a poor-man solution in NetBackup which does KMS for 20 pools. Don't forget to backup NBU's KMS DB if you would use it, it is not included in Catalog backup (don't know why).
