CDSE-4TG1K1M1 4TB HDD Mode 1 Key USB Powered USB 3.2 Gen 1 (3.0) FIPS 140-2 Level 2 HIPAA 256-bit AES Hardware Encrypted Mini Drive

Protect your precious pictures, videos, and other important data from being stolen or harvested from your social media accounts to be turned into deepfakes or other criminal misuses. You can transfer files from your smartphones and other digital devices through the computer into the CipherShield hardware-encrypted drive for secure storage. Don't store your pictures or videos on social media; store them securely in Ciphershield Drive. Don't leave your files on your computer where they are not encrypted; move them to the CipherShield drive. Criminals cannot decrypt your files without the hardware key, even if your drive is stolen. Supporting USB A on the PC side means the drive will work right out of the box without hunting for the right port or cable. It is also backward compatible with USB 2.0, so you don’t need to worry about being unable to use it with previous generations' USB systems. The CipherShield encryption model features single-factor authentication with a single key. Smart Insert with CipherKey allows you to secure data with two intelligent key insertion modes. In Mode 0, the key must remain plugged in while powered on to remain authenticated and decrypted. Suitable when human insertion of the key is not feasible, such as at a data center or remote location. When the key is removed, the drive is unauthenticated, and all data within the drive is no longer decrypted. CipherShield drive is perfect for secure data storage and backup for federal, state, and local government agencies, corporations, small businesses, universities, schools, healthcare, law, and personal use.
