Product features
Military-grade FIPS PUB 197 validated encryption
Featuring AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption, the Aegis Padlock seamlessly encrypts all data on the drive on-the-fly, keeping your data safe even if the hard drive is removed from its enclosure.Software-free design
With no admin rights to contend with the Aegis Padlock is a breeze to implement: Setup takes just minutes. With no software installation involved in setup or operation and the ability to run on any platform, the Aegis Padlock 3.0 provides stress-free deployment in corporate environments. Its Administrator Feature allows enrollment of up to five unique user IDs and one administrator, making it a useful business collaboration tool.Data at rest protection
All data, PINs, and encryption keys are always encrypted while at rest.Drive Reset feature
The Aegis Padlock 3.0 also employs a useful drive reset feature, which can be implemented with a unique command. This clears all PINs and data, and creates a new randomly generated encryption key, enabling the drive to be reset and redeployed as many times as needed.Auto Lock feature
Set the unattended drive to lock after a pre-determined period of inactivity.Brute Force Self Destruct feature
The Aegis Padlock uses a three-pronged approach to protect against a Brute-Force attack. The first step is to deny access to the drive until the drive can verify the user PIN. After several incorrect attempts, the drive will lock itself, requiring the drive to be plugged in again to input a PIN. This feature blocks automated attempts to enter PIN numbers. Lastly, after a predetermined number of failed PIN entries, the Padlock assumes it is being attacked and will destroy the encryption key and lock itself, rendering the data useless and requiring a total reset to redeploy the Padlock.Wear-resistant keypad
Designed with protection in mind, the entire Aegis Padlock family incorporates wear-resistant keypads to hide common key usage and avoid tipping-off a potential hacker with worn keys.Integrated USB 3.0 cable
Never forget your cables again. Connect the drive at the flick of a fingertip.Key selling points
