validated encryption algorithm
Employing AES-XTS 256-bit full disk hardware encryption, the diskAshur2 seamlessly encrypts all data on the drive whilst at rest, keeping your data safe even if the hard drive is removed from its enclosure.
EDGE Technology
(Enhanced Dual Generating Encryption)
Uniquely featuring a dedicated on-board Common Criteria EAL4+ ready secure microprocessor to enhance security through true random number generation and built-in cryptography. The data encryption key is protected by NCSC, FIPS and Common Criteria validated wrapping algorithms.
Tamper proof design
All the components of the diskAshur2 are completely covered by a layer of super tough epoxy resin, which is virtually impossible to remove without causing permanent damage to the components.
With epoxy
Without epoxy
Independent user & admin PIN
Which makes it perfect for corporate and government deployment. If the user forgets their PIN, the drive can be unlocked by the admin PIN, the admin can then allow the user to set a new PIN.
OS & platform independent
No software required. Works on any device with a USB port!
compatible with: MS Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Chrome, Thin Clients, Zero Clients, Embedded Systems, Citrix and VMware
BRUTE FORCE HACK
DEFENCE MECHANISM
Intelligently programmed to protect against all
forms of brute force attacks.
After 5 attempts
The drive will freeze, requiring the drive to be disconnected and reconnected to the USB port to get a further five PIN entry attempts.
Next 5 attempts
If a further five (10 in total) consecutive incorrect PIN attempts are entered again, the diskAshur2 will freeze again. To get a further and final five PIN attempts (15 in total), the “shift” button must be pressed whilst inserting the USB cable to the USB port and then an iStorage pre-set PIN will need to be entered.
Last 5 attempts
On the fifteenth consecutive incorrect PIN entry, the diskAshur2 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.
SHIFT key
The SHIFT key can be used for additional combinations. SHIFT + 1 is a separate value than just 1. To create a PIN using additional combinations, press and hold down the SHIFT button whilst entering your 7-15 digit PIN. e.g. SHIFT + 26756498.
Self-destruct feature
You can pre-program the diskAshur2 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.
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.
Data at rest protection
All data and encryption keys are always encrypted whilst at rest.
Wear resistant epoxy coated keypad
Designed with protection in mind, the diskAshur2 wear resistant epoxy coated keypad hides key usage to avoid tipping off a potential hacker to commonly used keys.
