Description
iStorage diskAshur DT3 – new external encrypted drive for backups and big data.
The iStorage diskAshur DT3 is a highly secure desktop hard drive optimized for safely storing, backing up, and transferring large data sets. It provides robust real-time hardware encryption with selectable modes: AES-XTS 256-bit (default), AES-ECB 256-bit, and AES-CBC 256-bit.
Access is controlled via a personal 8–64 digit PIN on a durable, wear-resistant backlit keypad. Featuring a high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C connection and an external 12V power supply, it combines desk-side stability with military-grade security.
The integrated keypad ensures secure and user-friendly entry, supporting customizable codes that prevent visible keypress patterns from appearing over time, ensuring comfortable usage in any lighting environment.
Key secure features of diskAshur DT3:
- Hardware Encryption. Provides powerful hardware-based encryption with three user-selectable modes. Certified to FIPS 140-2 Level 3 standards, delivering exceptional security against unauthorized access.
- Secure Microprocessor. Equipped with a Common Criteria EAL5+ certified chip. It features integrated true random number generation and advanced defenses against side-channel and physical attacks.
- Brute-Force Protection. Safeguards data by permanently erasing its encryption keys following ten consecutive incorrect PIN entries, rendering all data irrecoverable.
- BadUSB Protection. Utilizes digitally signed firmware validated through secure cryptographic methods to prevent unauthorized firmware changes and malware injection.
- Self-Destruct Feature. Enables instant and permanent deletion of encryption keys via a unique Self-Destruct PIN, separate from the standard access code.
- Multi-Platform Compatibility. Effortless plug-and-play functionality across Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and embedded platforms without requiring additional software.
