New Kanguru Defender Internal Self-Encrypting Hardware-Based SSDs Provide Optimum Data Security and Performance For Laptops and Tablets
MILLIS, Mass., May 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Kanguru announces their exceptional new line of hardware-based, internal self-encrypting drives designed to help organizations secure and protect their data. Under the Kanguru Defender® Brand name customers know and trust, Kanguru is entering the internal hardware market with these new Defender® internal hardware encrypted solid state drives. The self-encrypting SEDs are packed with security features to help organizations secure data on laptops and tablets, creating a secure data environment. The Defender SED's are also compliant with the Trusted Computing Group's Opal standard for secure drive architecture. In addition, Kanguru has partnered with Cigent®, known for their innovative data security, device sanitation and ransomware prevention, to integrate additional cutting-edge endpoint protection into the suite of Kanguru Defender SED's.
Kanguru's military grade AES 256-bit hardware encryption is enforced on the entire drive using stand-alone, independent hardware-based encryption security, not just specific files or folders. These internal encrypted drives automatically lock themselves when powered off, making all data stored within, (including the Operating System) completely inaccessible.
With full disk data security at rest, these encrypted solid-state drives keep operating systems locked and protected using a well-vetted hardware-based security architecture. This is important for 2 reasons: 1) The keys are never exported outside the cryptographic boundaries unlike software-based encryption approaches which can be exploited in this manner and 2) there are no performance bottlenecks in Kanguru's implementation compared to software encryption. Kanguru's flexible line of Defender SEDs meet any type of security requirement, need, or budget, from top-level FIPS 140-2 Certified models for compliance with stringent data security regulations, to high-speed, budget-friendly security for entities that may not need government certifications.
"Our commitment is to streamline, not complicate, the IT professionals' already demanding workload," says Nate Cote, Executive VP of Kanguru.
