Kanguru 1TB Defender 35 External HDD Hardware Encrypted Secure USB3.0 FIPS 197 certified, 256Bit

• FIPS 197, 256-bit AES Hardware Encryption (XTS Mode) The Kanguru Defender HDD 35 secure hard drive uses FIPS 197 Certified AES 256-bit Hardware encryption (XTS-Mode) to secure data contents stored on the USB drive. Since the cryptographic processes are all done in hardware, there is virtually no performance impact when transferring data, unlike the severe performance impact when using software encryption programs. XTS-mode also provides enhanced protection when used to encrypt large blocks of data (as in GB’s) as it eliminates certain vulnerabilities and patterns which might be exploited in earlier symmetric key implementations. In addition, the password matching and other security operations are all done in the secure confines of the tamper-resistant, epoxy encapsulated cryptographic processor. In short, your data can not be compromised. • Secure Firmware Protect even more than just your data. Protect your network and infrastructure as well from malware tampering with built-in Secure Firmware. Designed in compliance with NIST's requirements for securing device firmware, this drive is protected from "badUSB" to prevent malware attacks by a third-party. This makes it an ideal, trusted encrypted USB drive for whitelisting in an endpoint security environment. • SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Interface This hardware encrypted HDD offers USB 3.0 technology (USB 3.2 Gen 1x1) for lightning-fast data transfers. Connecting the Defender HDD 35 to a USB 3.0 supported USB port provides superior read / write speeds for quick, easy and convenient transfer of data. The new Defender HDD 35 is NOT backwards compatible with USB2.0. • OnBoard, World-Class Anti-Virus By BitDefender® Every Kanguru Defender hardware-encrypted drive comes with integrated onboard antivirus by award-winning BitDefender (30-day FREE trial)(1). Built right into this secure external SSD, the antivirus consistently scans the drive in the background, ensuring that all of your files will be safe and protected from viruses.
