Guard your sensitive data from prying eyes with the 8GB datAshur PRO2 Hardware Encrypted USB 3.1 Gen 2 Flash Drive from Istorage. Featuring real-time AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption and PIN authentication, this USB 3.1 Gen 2 flash drive keeps personal and corporate data safe while offering fast read and write speeds of up to 168.4 and 116.5 MB/s respectively. The datAshur PRO2's easy-to-use keypad enables you to securely access your data with your own unique 7- to 15-digit PIN. Also featured are auto-lock and brute-force protection so you don't have to worry about unauthorized access.

Built for durability, the Ashur PRO2 is equipped with a dust- and water-resistant IP68-rated aluminum sleeve that can withstand tough environments. Moreover, the datAshur PRO2 is NCSC CPA-, NLNCSA BSPA-, and FIPS 140-2 Level 3-certified while also being bootable. It does not require any software to be installed and is independent from operating systems. Despite this, it is compatible with Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome, Android, thin clients, and embedded systems.

All critical components are covered by a layer of tough epoxy resin, which is virtually impossible to remove without causing permanent damage to the critical components. If breached, the tamper-evident design of the datAshur PRO2 will provide visible evidence that tampering has occurred.

With independent user and admin PINs, the datAshur PRO2 is well suited for corporate and government deployment. If a user forgets his PIN, the drive can be unlocked by the admin PIN, and the admin can then allow the user to set a new PIN.

This feature enables you to install an operating system on the datAshur PRO2 and boot directly from it.

The datAshur PRO2 requires no software. It works on any device with a USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-A interface and is compatible with MS Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Chrome, thin clients, zero clients, embedded systems, Citrix, and VMware.

With a crypto-chip onboard, the datAshur PRO2 offers 100% real-time military-grade AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption with FIPS PUB 197 validated encryption algorithm.

The datAshur PRO2's microprocessor offers a high level of protection against hackers, detecting and responding to tampering with features such as the following:

• Dedicated hardware for protection against SPA/DPA/SEMA and DEMA attacks
• Advanced protection against physical attacks including active shield, enhance protection object, CStack checker, slope detector, and parity errors
• Environmental protection systems including voltage monitor, frequency monitor, temperature monitor, and light protection
• Secure memory management/access protection

If the user PIN is entered incorrectly 10 consecutive times, the user PIN will be deleted and the drive can only be accessed by entering the admin PIN in order to reset the user PIN. (Admin can change this from the default 10 incorrect PIN entries, to 1-9, for the user only).

If the Admin PIN is entered incorrectly 10 consecutive times, all PINs and the encrypted encryption key will be lost forever.

The admin can set a restriction policy for the user PIN. This includes setting the minimum length of the PIN, as well as requiring the input of one or more special characters.

Admin configurable, the one-time user recovery pin feature can be extremely useful in situations where a user has forgotten his PIN. This feature allows the user to unlock the device and set a new user PIN.

The device reset feature deletes the encrypted encryption key and all PINs, and renders all data as lost forever. The device can then be redeployed with a randomly generated new encrypted encryption key. This process can be repeated as many times as required.

Each datAshur PRO2 comes configured with a unique VID/PID and internal/external serial number with barcode, allowing for easy integration into standard end-point management software (white-listing), to meet internal corporate requirements.

The datAshur PRO2 can be programmed in advance with a self-destruct PIN. Should the need arise, this PIN can be entered to delete the encryption key and all PINs, rendering all data as lost forever.

• Read only (write protect) mode
• Immune to Bad USB

• Polymer-coated, wear-resistant onboard alphanumeric keypad
• IP68-rated dust and water resistance

Q: 4. can I attach a std USB drive to theUSB ports and do backups to the new device? Will Time Machine see all the drives?

A: Yes, a standard USB volume can be added externally to this model and will be visible to your software.

Q: 5. I see a power button in the pictures...so can I power it on/off, or does it only do whatever the computer is doing? thanks.

A: yes, the power button allows you to turn it on or off. with my mac, the drive will turn on when I turn the computer on, but the drive doesn't power down when I turn off the computer. power button turns it off. Great drive. I have several. Only drives I'll use Hope this info is helpful.

Q: 6. Will this work with usb 2.0 ?

A: Yes.

Q: 7. For archiving, would you buy one of these and use in RAID 0 (for maximum size) or an 8TB desktop-size drive (losing the benefit of portability and encryption) ?

A: If one drive fails in a RAID 0 configuration, you would lose all of your data. The desktop drive has the advantage of an external power source. You could use a program like bitlocker to encrypt the drive. If you are looking for a portable solution, you could divide the data across 2 or 3 Lacie 5TB Rugged drives.

Q: 8. Should I use software encryption with this product?

A: No additional encryption software required, since the Rugged RAID Shuttle already self-encrypts its data in real time and it offers password protection with its LaCie Toolkit utility. Actually, any additional encryption technology might impact the performance of the product

Q: 9. How does the drive show you if it's failing?

A: Hey kathleen, I've been using Glyphs for a few years ( I have 6 ) & fortuneatly they have never failed me.

Q: 10. Can I use this as a stationary external hard drive?

A: Yes, you simply need to install whatever size drives that fits your needs.
