Apricorn Aegis Fortress L3 external hard drive 1 TB Black

Delivering all of the same next level security features as our Aegis line of secure drives. in an extremely rugged enclosure. and with a new. ultra fast encryption chipset. the L3 is the fastest. most robust. highest capacity drive we've ever made. Tough on the outside. the Fortress L3 is designed to meet NIST's highest level of FIPS validation attainable for portable devices: 140-2 level 3. Small enough to go in a pocket or briefcase. large enough to carry up to 16TB of data. the Fortress L3 allows you to securely and easily carry large amounts of sensitive data everywhere you go. Available in a wide variety of storage capacities in both HDD and high speed SSD models. The Aegis Fortress [Read more...] is Software-Free. 100% hardware-based 256-bit AES XTS encrypted. and onboard keypad PIN authenticated with ultra-fast USB 3.1 (3.0) data transfer speeds. All Data is encrypted on the fly and all PINs and Data remain encrypted while the drive is at rest. Completely cross-platform compatible and OS agnostic; the Aegis Fortress thrives with Windows. Linux. Mac. Android. Symbian and Chrome. It also thrives where software-authenticated encrypted devices can't function. such as embedded systems and equipment in possession of a powered USB port and storage file system but no keyboard.The heart and soul of every Apricorn Secure Device. AegisWare is our patent-protected firmware combined with the industry’s most advanced feature set.The highest level of FIPS validation granted by NIST The Fortress L3 expands the validation boundary beyond the encryption module. to include all of the electronics. the drive. the entire internal structure and the enclosure's fasteners. With this FIPS validation. the Fortress L3 more than meets the U.S. government standards for information technology and computer security. NIST FIPS 140 is the cryptography standard program required by the US federal government for protection of sensitive data.The Aegis Fortress L3's new chipset delivers SSD write speed increases of up to 150% and read speeds of up to 180% in comparison to previous Aegis Fortress models. There is also an appreciable performance increase in the HDD models too.Our toughest enclosure is milled from a solid block of aluminum alloy and sealed closed with tamper resistant / evident uni-directional breakaway security fasteners which are driven and cemented in place with hardened epoxyAdmin (Device Configuration) Mode and User Access Mode. The Aegis Fortress L3 supports one independent Admin and one User PIN. The Admin mode controls the universal programmable settings of the device and can only be accessed with the Admin PIN. The User mode is limited to basic external drive functions like read /write. unlock / lock. etc. The data on the drive can also be accessed with the admin PIN in the User mode.Unique PIN Must be Established at Time of Setup. Eliminates Factory Default PIN Vulnerability. One of the most common vulnerabilities found in password protected peripheral devices are factory preset default PINs. If left unchanged from original factory settings. these simple default PINs serve as unlocked backdoors to these devices and can easily be used by hackers to to access whatever data is on the drive. As with all Apricorn Aegis secure devices. there are no default passwords. and no backdoors. In order to set up the Fortress L3. or any Apricorn secure drive for that matter. the admin must first establish a sufficiently complex. unique PIN before the device can be used or written to.Beyond the admin. one additional user PIN can be generated to access the device's data. This PIN can be set up by the admin at initial configuration. or the device can be deployed in a state of User Forced Enrollment. where the intended user must first establish his or her own PIN prior to using the device.Creates State of User Forced Enrollment that Restores Access to Drive. In the event that a User PIN is forgotten. Recovery PINs can be programmed by the admin into the device at time of setup (and any time thereafter) to permit access to the drive’s data by creating a new state of User Forced Enrollment leaving the Admin PIN and the drive’s data intact. Once a replacement User PIN is generated. access to the drive is restored for the user and that new User PIN serves to replace the previous forgotten one.Windows-Based App that Quickly Sets Up Multiple Devices Simultaneously. Create custom profiles and mass configure multiple devices in a matter of seconds using the Aegis Configurator. To configure an expanded number of devices. use the Powered Aegis Configurator Hub bundle.Drive is Unlocked by Entering a PIN on Keypad and not the Host Computer’s Keyboard. Until the device is unlocked via its keypad. it remains invisible to the host. The embedded keypad circumvents all hardware and software key logging attempts to capture passwords by excluding the host system from the authentication process. Polymer-coated membrane-style keypad is wear
