Your hard disk is where you
store virtually all of your data. Keeping this information secure in case
you lose your notebook, or it is stolen, is a vital part of everyday
commercial practice. is available in
versions to suit the single user, small to medium corporate users and large
global enterprise users.
Security systems should
work with the user - not against them. -the has been designed to be extremely simple to use.
Many methods of securing
confidential information have surfaced over the last few years but most, if
not all, become more difficult to use and implement as the levels of
security required get higher and higher. The design goal of the
is to
offer very high levels of security and encryption but with an ease of use
that would make the implementation of the security system painless.
adopts a very simple but very secure solution based on
'two-factor security'
The uses a two-factor approach
employing something a user knows - a 4-digit PIN Code and something a user
has - a USB key. Both of these must be used in combination to access the
protected information.
By requiring all users to
be in possession of a valid USB
token and the correct user PIN code, before any access is granted to the
Secure Disk, we ensure that only
properly authorised and authenticated users can see and work with your
information. Many methods of securing confidential information have surfaced

To achieve this goal
implements hardware based
authentication using a token policy and a personal administration programme.
By only allowing the authenticated user access to the encryption and
decryption capabilities of KeyDrive it is virtually impossible for any third
party not in possession of a valid authentication device (USB token) to gain
unauthorised access to the secured information.
manages all access to the encryption and decryption
capabilities via the authentication device. A user must be in possession of
the authentication device and have been properly authenticated to the device
by supplying a user PIN number established by the user during the initial
administration set-up.
Without a valid key and
proper authentication it is not possible to access the information protected

Advanced Encryption System consists of three discrete
elements?

 |
A solid-state
authentication device, which securely stores the user's access control
information and location details of the encrypted data.
|
|
|
A software client which
resides on the user's PC or notebook and which cannot be activated
unless a valid authentication device is in place and the user has
properly authenticated to the device.
|
A simple Administrator
routine, which allows the user to personalize his or her options into the
authentication device.

their cash card. When they've finished their session, close the files and
