Aegis Padlock FIPS 140-2 Solid State Drive
Where super tough meets ultra secure you’ll find Apricorn’s Aegis Padlock SSD. Boasting a 
crush resistant, aluminum enclosure that is water resistant and impervious to dust and grit, 
this secure solid state USB 3.0 drive is as tough as they come. With no moving parts, this drive is 
drop and vibration resistant, unaffected by high humidity and works in extremes of temperature. 
Invincible to key logging attacks, you access the drive with your own unique PIN via an onboard 
keypad. Certified to NIST FIPS 140-2 Level 2 requirements, this drive is tested on 11 cryptographic 
levels. All data on the drive is protected with real-time hardware AES-XTS 256-bit encryption, and 
with no software required for installation or operation this drive needs no admin rights. Combine this 
with a USB 3.0 integrated cable and SSD performance, and you have one powerful drive. 
FIPS 140-2 Level 2  Validated: 
The Aegis Padlock SSD FIPS 140-2 validation 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 Aegis Padlock seamlessly 
encrypts all data on the drive in real-time, keeping your data safe even if the hard drive is removed from its enclosure.
Software Free Design – With no admin rights to contend with: 
Setup takes just minutes. With no 
software installation required for setup or operation and the ability to run on any platform, the Aegis Padlock 
provides stress free deployment in corporate environments. Its Administrator feature allows enrollment of up 
to four unique user ID’s and one administrator, making it a useful business collaboration tool.
Data at Rest Protection:
 
All data, PINs, and encryption keys are always encrypted while at rest.
Drive Reset Feature:
  
The Aegis Padlock also 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 Aegis Padlock SSD 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 Aegis Padlock 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 Padlock 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 Padlock.
Wear Resistant Key Pad - Water & Dust Resistant:
 
Designed with protection in mind, the Aegis Padlock’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 
the commonly used keys.
Integrated USB 3.0 Cable: 
With super fast data transfers up to 300MB/s you need never forget your cables again.
