Security

The External CipherChain is a full disk encryption solution. This means that the boot sector, partition table and all

the information in the drive are encrypted. If the encrypted external drive is stolen, the drive will appear as a brand

new drive with no trace of any data. The AES 256-bit encryption provided by the External CipherChain is consid-

ered the highest level of encryption standard, secure enough to protect classified information designated as "Top

Secret".

Performance

The External CipherChain encrypts and decrypts data on the fly using a NIST and CSE certified cryptographic

AES engine. Unlike software encryption product which depends on system CPUs to encrypt and decrypt data, the

External CipherChain has no impact to CPU utilization. This leaves the system CPU to perform all its computing

task at normal speed. There is also no measurable impact to the performance on the hard drive.

Cipher key

The AES 256-bit Cipher key used for the encryption/decryption in the External CipherChain is the same Cipher

key as used in the Addonics Diamond Cipher drive kit, Ruby Cipher drive kit, CipherChain and CipherChain-E. As

a result, you can share the same encryption key to operate on the storage device that has been encrypted by

either the CipherChain, Diamond Cipher or Ruby Cipher drive kits. You may also order Cipher keys with the same

key codes when you order multiple CipherChain ES kits or Cipher keys. You may also re-programmed the Cipher

keys to other codes using the optional key management system or sending the keys to Addonics for the

re-programming service at no charge.

Drive Sanitization

The External CipherChain can also be used as a drive sanitization equipment for wiping clean all previous data on

a used hard or flash media by using the following operation procedures:

1. Connect the storage device to be sanitized into device side of the External CipherChain.

2. Connect the External CipherChain to the computer.

3. Initialize and perform a standard formatting (not quick format) of the hard drive or the flash media..

4. Transfer unimportant data to completely fill the hard drive or the flash media . This essentially writes over every

sector in the hard drive or the flash media with unimportant encrypted data that are not viewable to any OS. The

drive or the flash media, when connects directly to a system, will appear like brand new with no trace of any data

5. Now connect the drive or flash media directly to the computer. Initialize and format the hard drive or the flash

media with any OS to use it as a brand new hard drive or media

FEAUTURES

• Great for the following applications:

• Prevent sensitive data from unauthorized access when the storage device is lost or stolen

• Shipping or transporting storage devices containing sensitive data.

• Encrypt an entire RAID volume

• Drive sanitization - wipe clean of old data on used drive or flash media
