- Delivers significant performance improvement over traditional software disk encryption solutions
- Reduces Total Cost of Ownership
- Eliminates platform dependency
- Offers strong hardware-based security through NIST & CSE certified TDES cryptographic engine
- Encrypts entire hard drive including Master Boot Record (MBR), Operating System, Swap & Temp. files
- Provides 1.6 Gigabit per second throughput with zero performance degradation
- Portable X-Wall Secure Key for BIOS level user authentication and access control
- Durable Aluminum-Magnesium casing securely protects hard drives when stored for safekeeping
The X-Wall Secure USB 2.0 is a secure, portable and convenient solution combining the power of strong encryption with unprecedented throughput to protect sensitive data and credentials stored on PCs and servers. Accommodating any standard 2.5 inch (9.5mm in height) hard drive, MicroRiver’s Secure USB 2.0 automatically and transparently encrypts all stored data and may be easily removed for safekeeping or for use in a different location.
Secure USB 2.0 is a powerful solution that ensures maximum data privacy
The sensitive nature of confidential information is driving the need to secure data stored on all portable computer systems. MicroRiver’s innovative solution ensures multi-level privacy, confidentiality and authentication, allowing organizations to protect valuable assets, credentials and intellectual property which are exposed to significant risk of theft. Legal liability and the financial consequences associated with stolen confidential information require organizations to go to extreme lengths to protect their data.
Certain inhibiting factors have limited the widespread adoption of data encryption. Software solutions fail to address multiple concerns of performance degradation, user acceptance and ease-of-use. In contrast, hardware-based encryption technology is a much more secure solution offering simple and absolute data security which completely eliminates processor cycle interrupts and memory overhead. With MicroRiver’s transparent hardware based solution you are assured that your data and credentials are fully protected.
X-Wall LX Technology
MicroRiver’s X-Wall LX solution completely eliminates the traditional trade-offs between speed, convenience and security. X-Wall LX performs automatic and transparent hardware based “real-time" encryption at an unprecedented 1.6 Gigabit per second, requiring no user intervention. This ensures users never experience any performance degradation, with systems functioning at exactly the same speed as before X-Wall LX was installed.
The X-Wall Secure Key stores and protects the encryption key used by the X-Wall LX microchip to encrypt data. The correct X-Wall Secure Key must be inserted into the special key socket (present on X-Wall finished products) at system boot up to authenticate the user and authorize the operating system to load before granting access to data stored on the hard drive.
Because X-Wall LX operates at the physical hardware layer, it is compatible with all Operating Systems and requires no specific device drivers. Software upgrades, patches and bug-fixes are therefore no longer relevant.
X-Wall LX provides the complete security your data deserves. Utilizing only Government NIST & CSE approved DES (Data Encryption Standard) and TDES algorithms for assured security, X-Wall LX also allows you to choose the encryption key strength that best suits your particular requirements.
Key Management
The X-Wall Secure Key must be properly inserted into the key receptacle found on the Secure USB2.0 unit before it is attached to the Computer USB Host. Failure to do so will render disk unreadable. The same X-Wall Secure Key that is used to partition and format the new hard drive installed on the Secure USB2.0 unit will be used repeatedly for every boot up and Windows hot plug. The X-Wall Secure Key can then be removed and saved separately after the Secure USB2.0 drive has been properly recognized. Re-attaching the Secure USB2.0 unit without applying the correct X-Wall Secure Key while Windows is still up and running still renders disk unreadable.
