Ulkoinen kiintolevy Apricorn 500GB USB 3.2 Aegis Padlock

The Apricorn Aegis Padlock 500GB external hard drive provides hardware-based AES encryption and a software-free setup for secure portable storage. With a USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0) interface and a built-in keypad, the drive encrypts data in real time using AES-XTS (128 or 256-bit) and allows access via a user-configured PIN. The compact black enclosure, integrated USB cable and low-power design suit mobile use with notebooks and other USB hosts.

Advantages

Real-time AES-XTS hardware encryption protects all data, PINs and encryption keys while at rest without requiring any software. The device supports fast data transfers up to USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds and is backward compatible with USB 2.0/1.1. Administrative and user PINs, a drive reset function that creates a new encryption key, auto-lock and brute-force self-destruct features increase security and management flexibility. The rugged, compact design with an integrated cable and wear-resistant keypad improves portability and resistance to physical wear.

Suitable for

• Secure transport of sensitive corporate or personal files
• Offline storage of backups and archives requiring hardware encryption
• Use with laptops and mobile workstations where software installation is restricted
• Environments needing quick redeployment through drive reset and admin control

How to use

Connect the Aegis Padlock to a host via the integrated USB cable. On first use, follow the on-device keypad prompts to set an Administrator PIN and any User PINs; no software installation is required. Enter the correct PIN on the keypad to unlock the drive and access files through the host operating system. The administrator can enroll up to five user IDs and unlock the drive if a user PIN is forgotten. To reset the drive and clear all data and PINs, use the drive reset command as described in the device instructions.

Recommendations

Set a strong numeric PIN, store the Admin PIN separately from regular use, and enable auto-lock to protect data when the drive is left unattended. Use the drive reset only when redeploying the unit, as reset permanently erases data and creates a new encryption key.
