AEGIS PADLOCK

Utilize the blazing speed of USB 3.0 with the security of 256-bit AES Hardware Encryption with the Aegis Padlock Pro.

With a software-free design, secure PIN access, real-time 256-bit AES encryption, and a USB interface, the ultra-fast Aegis Padlock Pro is the ideal drive for those that require the ultimate in security and speed.

Need to secure your data on the go? The Aegis Padlock fuses hardware data protection with a speedy USB 3.0 connection. Featuring an easy-to-use keypad design and software-free setup, the Aegis Padlock enables you to access the drive with your own unique PIN.

Military Grade FIPS PUB 197 Validated Encryption: Your data is protected 24/7 with AES 256-bit hardware encryption. The Aegis Padlock seamlessly encrypts all data on the drive in real-time, keeping your data safe even if the hard drive is removed from its enclosure.

Ultra-fast USB interface - Data transfer rates of up to 5Gbps: With a super-speed USB 3.0 interface, you can now access your files faster than ever before. The Aegis Padlock 3.0 is also backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 ports.

Brute Force Self Destruct Feature: The Aegis Padlock uses a three-pronged approach to protect against Brute Force attacks. The first step is to deny access to the drive until it can verify the user's 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 drive.

VTC Technology: Protection against hacker attempts doesn’t stop with Brute Force. Incorporated into the Aegis Padlock Pro’s electronics is Apricorn’s Variable Time Circuit (VTC) technology, working to thwart “timing attacks” aimed at accessing the drive by studying the behavior and infiltrating the Padlock’s electronics.

Software Free Design – Setup takes just minutes: With no software installation required for setup or operation and the ability to run on any platform, the Aegis Padlock provides stress-free deployment in corporate environments. Its Administrator Feature allows enrollment of up to ten unique user IDs and one administrator, making it a useful business collaboration tool.

Wear Resistant Key Pad: Designed with protection in mind, the entire Aegis Padlock family incorporates ‘wear resistant’ keypads to hide key usage and avoid tipping off a potential hacker to the commonly used keys.

Data at Rest Protection: All data, PINs, and encryption keys are always encrypted while at rest.
