What we are seeing now is MACsec getting integrated into latest NPUs directly. So far it has been mostly implemented by separate chips or in PHYs (or combination). This has, in some cases, limited you to what ports you can use MACsec on. It also had challenges with sync/PTP, per-vlan MACsec etc.

So while it is proven technology and works well we are still seeing innovation/improvements.

It is also now shipping in coherent pluggables as a native feature. Mark.
