Product Details

Designed to completely meet NIST FIPS 140-2 Level 3 requirements meaning that

the entire devices Hard drive, electronics, external fasteners, even the

enclosure itselfare included within this elevated FIPS Validation boundary.

Milled from a solid block of aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum alloy, the enclosure

also features snap-off uni-directional security fasteners and a membrane-style

keypad. Inside, all data is encrypted on the fly as it's being written to the

drive using AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption, protecting your data even if

the hard drive is extracted from its enclosure. The Aegis Fortress L3 is ready

to use Right Out of the boxno software, drivers, or updates. Completely

cross-platform compatible, the L3 excels on any PC, Mac, Linux, or mass

storage compliant system with a powered USB port. Like all Apricorn secure

drives, The L3 features forced enrollment which fixes a common security

vulnerability prevalent in other manufacturers encrypted drives by

eliminating factory-preset default pins. With forced enrollment, the Admin

must first establish a pin before the device can be used. All pin entries are

performed on the device's keypad making it compatible with systems without

keyboards and shares no security parameters with its host computer. The L3 has

two Read-Only modes: perfect for accessing data on the drive in a public

setting to protect against USB viruses and ideal for applications that require

data to be preserved in its original, unaltered statecant be overwritten or

modified. Brute force Defense: after a predetermined number of consecutive

incorrect pin entries, The L3 will conclude that it is under Brute force

attack and will perform a crypto-erase deleting the encryption key which

will render all of the drive's data useless. Configurable: create custom

profiles and mass configure multiple Aegis devices at once with Apricorn's

Aegis Configurator (sold separately).
