Data Security

PIN Protected AES Encrypted USB 2.0 Bus Powered External Hard Drive

With the increase in mobile workers and data portability, there is an increased risk that your sensitive and confidential data could fall into the wrong hands. Make sure your data is secure with the Data Locker. The Data Locker is a portable USB 2.0 hard drive that is 128 or 256 Bit AES hardware encrypted ensuring that all your data is secure whilst on the move.

By utilising hardware encryption that is integrated into the Data Locker, there is no performance decrease in read and write operations. Hardware based encryption combined with the unique LCD Touch Screen authentication system also means that the Data Locker is platform independent, requiring no device drivers or software to be installed.

The Data Locker’s LCD Touch Screen allows you to enter up to an 18 digit PIN which gives you access to your data. Because the authentication is carried out on the Data Locker and not your computer, keyboard loggers, brute force attacks and viruses cannot give third parties access to your data.

Hardware Encryption
The Data Locker is designed using industry standard AES Cipher Block Chaining hardware encryption, with either a 128 Bit or 256 Bit key length. This level of encryption is the same high level encryption standard used by Government departments to secure highly sensitive data.

The encryption chipset used in the Data Locker is certified by the NIST to fully comply with the FIPS 197 certification standard and FIPS 140-2 certification has been applied for. Additionally the Data Locker’s level of security is enhanced further by the use of an encryption key which is user generated and unique to each unit.

Self Destruct Mode
Should your Data Locker be lost or stolen you can be sure that your data will remain secure. If someone attempts to guess your PIN and gain access to your data, the Data Locker’s Self Destruct Mode will count the number of times it is entered incorrectly and after each third incorrect attempt will shutdown requiring the Data Locker to be turned off and on again.

Should the number of times the PIN is entered incorrectly reach a total of nine the Data Locker will permanently erase the encryption key. With no encryption key to decrypt the data stored on the DataLocker your data will become permanently unrecoverable by the person attempting to gain access to it or by yourself.
