(NO DEFAULT PIN)		is the cryptography standard required by the US federal government for protection of all
USER FORCED-ENROLLMENT		sensitive data, covering 11 areas of its cryptographic security system, including physical security,
		cryptographic key management, and design integrity.
COMPATIBLE WITH ANY		Military Grade FIPS PUB 197 Validated Encryption:Featuring 256-bit hardware encryption,
		the Aegis Padlock seamlessly encrypts all data on the drive on the fly.
OPERATING SYSTEM
		Aegis Configurator Compatible: Create custom profiles and mass configure multiple

		Admin and User Forced Enrollment: With no default factory pre-set PINs, the Admin and (if
ALUMINUM ENCLOSURE
		desired) the initial User must each first establish a unique Personal Identity Number (PIN) to

PROGRAMMABLE BRUTE-		access the drive.
FORCE PROTECTION		One-Time Recovery PINs: In the event that a User PIN is forgotten, up to 4 one-time use recovery
SELF-DESTRUCT PIN		PINs can be programmed to permit access to the drive’s data.
		Auto-Lock: Locks automatically whenever it’s unplugged from its powered USB port, and is further
LOCK SLOT
		programmable to also lock after a predetermined period of inactivity.
WEAR-RESISTANT	Lock-Override Mode: Designated for specific cases in which the drive needs to remain unlocked,
	e.g., during reboot, passing the drive through a virtual machine, or other similar situations that would
KEYPAD	normally prompt the Padlock DT to automatically lock. When enabled, Lock-Override Mode allows
	the drive to remain unlocked through USB port re-enumeration and will not re-lock unless power is
1-YEAR	interrupted.
WARRANTY	Drive Reset: Allows the drive to be cleared and redeployed. Capable of generating an infinite number
	of randomly generated encryption keys, The Aegis Padlock DT can be reset as many times as desired.

Brute-Force Protection: After a predetermined number (programmable; up to 20) of incorrect PIN entry attempts, the Padlock DT will conclude that it is under Brute Force Attack and will respond by performing a crypto-erase – deleting the encryption key which will render all of the key’s data useless.

Two Read-Only Modes: Perfect for accessing data on the drive in a public setting to protect against USB viruses. Particularly important in forensics, Read-Only Mode is ideal for applications that require data to be preserved in its original, unaltered state and can’t be overwritten or modified.The Padlock DT has two readonly modes. One is set by the Admin in the Admin mode and can’t be modified or disabled by anyone other than the Admin. The second read-only mode can be set and disabled by a user but can also be overridden by the Admin as well.

Wear-Resistant Key Pad:Designed with protection in mind, the entire Aegis Padlock family incorporates wearresistant keypads to hide frequent key usage and avoid tipping off a potential hacker to commonly used keys.
