 We consider the problem of secure long-term archiving of
 network traffic, an instance of the problem of storing data
 securely. We approach the problem using secure hardware, which enables
 the enforcement of flexible access policy. The policy cannot be
 circumvented by anyone, even insiders, and so we are assured that
 access to the data is as originally intended. The policy can be
 expressed as any feasible computation, as it will be checked inside
 the secure hardware without possibility of interference. We discuss
 our design of a device to perform such network data archiving and have
 implemented a prototpe device. We discuss other possible application
 areas of the design.
