Guard your sensitive data from prying eyes with the fiery red 2TB diskAshur2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Encrypted Portable SSD from Istorage. Featuring real-time AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption and PIN authentication, this portable USB 3.1 SSD keeps personal and corporate data safe while offering fast read and write speeds of up to 294 and 319 MB/s respectively. The diskAshur2 SSD's easy-to-use keypad enables you to securely access your data with your own unique 7- to 15-digit PIN.

One of the underlying security features of the GDPR-compliant diskAshur2 SSD is its dedicated hardware-based secure microprocessor (Common Criteria EAL4+ ready), which employs built-in physical protection mechanisms to defend against external tamper, bypass attacks, and more. The diskAshur2 SSD renders automated attacks useless by entering the deadlock frozen state. With software-free setup and operation, the diskAshur2 SSD is platform/device independent and works across all operating systems including all versions of Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Chrome, Thin Clients, Zero Clients, and embedded systems.

Easy to Use

Simply enter a 7-15 digit PIN to authenticate and use as a normal portable SSD. When the drive is disconnected, all data is encrypted using AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption (no software required).

Tamper Proof Design

All data stored on the diskAshur2 is encrypted using FIPS PUB 197 validated, AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption. All components incorporated within the diskAshur2 are completely covered by a layer of super tough epoxy resin, which is virtually impossible to remove without causing permanent damage to the components.

Wear Resistant Keypad

The onboard keypad is covered with a layer of polymer coating that protects the keys and hides key usage to avoid tipping off a potential hacker to commonly used keys.

Read Only (Write Protect) - Dual Mode

Both the admin and user can configure the diskAshur2 as a read only (write protect) drive. If configured by the admin, the drive cannot be modified or disabled by the user, allowing the admin to pre-provision a drive with pre-loaded content as read-only for the User.

Incorporates a Common Criteria EAL 5+ (Hardware Certified) Secure Microprocessor

Which enhances security through true random number generation and built-in cryptography. The data encryption key is protected by FIPS and Common Criteria validated wrapping algorithms. Offers ultimate security against hackers, detecting and responding to tampering with features such as:

Dedicated hardware for protection against SPA/DPA/SEMA, DEMA attacks
Advanced protection against physical attacks, including Active Shield, Enhance Protection Object, CStack checker, Slope Detector and Parity Errors
Environmental Protection Systems protecting against voltage monitor, frequency monitor, temperature monitor and light protection
Secure Memory Management/Access Protection

Splash and Dustproof

The diskAshur2 has been certified to IP56, meaning the drive is dust and waterproof.

Independent User & Admin PINs

Independent user and admin PINs make it perfect for corporate and government deployment. If the User forgets their PIN, the drive can be unlocked using the Admin PIN. The administrator can then allow the user to set a new user PIN.

Transfer Your Files Quickly

Compatibility with USB 3.2 Gen 1 delivers read speeds of up to 362 MB/s and write speeds of 358 MB/s.

OS & Host Independent

No software required, as the drive will work on virtually any device with a USB port, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Chrome, Thin Clients, Zero Clients, Embedded Systems, Citrix, and VMware

Brute Force Hack Defense Mechanism

This drive is intelligently programmed to protect against all forms of brute force attacks.

Drive Reset

Deletes the encrypted encryption key, all PINs and renders all data as lost forever. The drive can then be redeployed which randomly generates a new encrypted encryption key, a process that can be repeated as many times as required.

First 5 Incorrect PIN Entries

The drive will freeze, requiring the drive to be disconnected and reconnected to the USB port to get a further five PIN entry attempts.

Next 5 Incorrect PIN Entries

If the following five (10 in total) consecutive PIN attempts are entered incorrectly again, the diskAshur2 will freeze again. To get a further and final five PIN attempts (15 in total), the "shift" button must be pressed whilst inserting the USB cable to the USB port and then an iStorage preset PIN will need to be entered.

Last 5 Incorrect PIN Entries

On the fifteenth consecutive incorrect PIN entry, the diskAshur2 assumes it is being attacked and will delete the encryption key and lock itself, rendering all data previously stored on the drive as lost forever. At this point the drive can be reset to factory default settings and redeployed.

Auto-Lock

Automatically locks when unplugged from the host computer or when power to the USB port is turned off. It can also be set to automatically lock after a predetermined amount of time.

Self-Destruct

Pre-program the diskAshur2 with a self-destruct PIN, once entered, the data, encrypted encryption key and all PINs are deleted and rendered as lost forever.

Whitelisting On Networks

Configured with a unique VID/PID and internal/external serial number with barcode, allowing easy integration into standard end-point management software (white-listing), to meet internal corporate requirements.
