Description

Looking for the highest level of security for your data while utilizing the fastest USB 3.0 speeds?

Look no further than the iStorage diskAshur Pro, certified and tested to NIST FIPS 140-2 Level 2 requirements. Sporting an easy-to-use keypad design that is impervious to dust and grit, a software free setup and operation, the diskAshur Pro enables you to access the drive simply and easily with your own unique PIN and with a super fast integrated USB 3.0 cable, you can access your data faster than ever before!

  • FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certified

    The iStorage diskAshur Pro certification is the cryptography standard required by the US federal government for protection of sensitive data. It covers 11 areas of its cryptographic security system, including physical security, cryptographic key management and design integrity.
  • Military grade encryption

    Featuring AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption, the diskAshur Pro seamlessly encrypts all data on the drive in real-time, keeping your data safe even if the hard drive is removed from its enclosure.
  • Data at rest protection

    All data, PINs, and encryption keys are always encrypted while at rest.
  • Drive reset feature

    The diskAshur Pro employs a useful drive reset feature, which can be implemented with a unique command. This clears all PINs and data, and creates a new randomly generated encryption key, enabling the drive to be reset and redeployed as many times as needed.
  • Auto lock feature and self destruct PIN

    With the diskAshur Pro you can set the unattended drive to lock after a pre-determined amount of time. In addition you can pre-program your own unique Self Destruct PIN which, once implemented, instantly destroys all PINs, data and creates a new encryption key.
  • Brute force protection

    The diskAshur Pro uses a three pronged approach to protect against a Brute Force attack. The first step is to deny access to the drive until the drive can verify the user 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 diskAshur Pro 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.
  • Water and dust resistant

    Designed with protection in mind, the diskAshurPro's 'wear resistant' keypad and case is impervious to dust, grit and water, and hides key usage to avoid tipping off a potential hacker to commonly used keys.
  • Integrated USB 3.0 cable

    Never forget your cables again. Connect the drive at the flick of a fingertip.
