FIPS 140-2, FIPS 197, 256-bit AES-XTS, 256-bit AES-CBC
TAA Compliant
Overview
The DL3 FE (FIPS Edition) sets a standard for encrypted portable storage. The DL3FE is the world's first external hard drive utilizing 2 pass, cascading encryption. The DL3 FE utilizes two independent crypto engines each using a random, unique 256 bit keys to encrypt your data first with 256 bit AES XTS mode algorithm and then sequentially with the 256 bit AES CBC mode algorithm. Each bit of stored data is encrypted twice with two independent keys which never leave your device. It is the first and only encrypted external hard drive to feature dual crypto processors. Every single bit of data at rest is double encrypted.
Absolutely no software or drivers
Supports alpha and numeric based passwords
2-pass encryption: first pass is 256 bit AES XTS mode, second pass is FIPS 140-2 validated 256-bit AES CBC mode
Self destruct security mode (mitigate brute force hacking)
