Overview
The diskAshur2 USB 3.1 HDD/SSD is an ultra-secure, PIN authenticated, hardware encrypted portable hard drive. Using the device couldn’t be easier, simply connect the integrated cable to any computer and enter a 7-15-digit PIN. If the correct PIN is entered, all data stored on the drive will be decrypted and accessible. To lock the drive, simply eject it from the host computer and all data stored on the device will be encrypted (full disk encryption) using military grade AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption.
One of the unique security features of the diskAshur2 is the dedicated on-board secure microprocessor (Common Criteria EAL4+ ready), which employs built-in physical protection mechanisms designed to defend against external tamper, bypass attacks and more. The device reacts to an automated attack by entering the deadlock frozen state.
In plain and simple terms, without the PIN there’s no way in!
Key Features
OS & platform independent
100% hardware encryption, platform/device independent – works with all operating systems
Compatible with:
MS Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Chrome, Thin Clients, Zero Clients, Embedded Systems, Citrix and VMware
No speed degradation
As fast as any non-encrypted drive
Auto lock
The diskAshur2 automatically locks when unplugged from the host computer or power to the USB port is turned off and can also be set to automatically lock after a predetermined amount of time
Wear resistant epoxy coated keypad
Designed with protection in mind, the wear resistant epoxy coated keypad hides key usage to avoid tipping off a potential hacker to commonly used keys
Brute force hack defence mechanism
After 15 consecutive incorrect PIN entries, the drive assumes it is being attacked and will delete the encryption key and lock itself, rendering all data previously stored on the drive as lost forever. At this point the drive can be reset to factory default settings and redeployed.
Self-destruct feature
You can pre-program the drive with your own unique self-destruct PIN which, once implemented, instantly deletes the encryption key, all PINs, data and then creates a new encryption key
Tamper proof design
All of the components of the drive are completely covered by a layer of super tough epoxy resin, which is virtually impossible to remove without causing permanent damage to the components. This barrier prevents a potential hacker from accessing the critical components and launching a variety of futile attacks.
