Choose the security level you need

Secure LockWare™ offers three security options:

Drive encryption

Encrypt your entire storage media.

All data on the device is secured and impossible to access, without keying in the password you set during the encryption process.

File/Folder encryption

Encrypt individual files or folders only.

The individual files or folders are then secured and made impossible to access without keying in the password.

Various settings are available within Secure LockWare™ including encryption strength and default file destination.

PC lock

Prevent unauthorized use of your PC by requiring a USB "key".

How Secure LockWare™ Works

Strong AES encryption keeps your data safe

The problem

Loss: Unencrypted media can be read by anyone. Personal information, customer lists, your company's internal data; they're all on your drive.

The solution

Encryption: Media encrypted with AES is secure. No one will be able to access your data without the password. Period.

Secure LockWare™ uses the powerful AES encryption.
That's why it's so secure.

PC Lock prevents unauthorised access

The problem

Treachery : The moment you leave your computer, your sensitive data becomes vulnerable to theft.

The solution

PC Lock: Use a USB flash memory as a "key" with Secure LockWare™. Key inserted: computer access granted. Key removed: computer access denied

Secure LockWare™ has a PC Lock function that stops treachery or data theft.

You need a password to access the storage media encrypted by Secure LockWare™. It is virtually impossible to analyze and extract any useable data from an AES encrypted data stream, so your data is secure.

The PC Lock feature works with Windows to prevent unauthorized access to your keyboard and hides the display contents from prying eyes. When the PC Lock is enabled by removing the USB drive from the computer, the custom Secure LockWare™ logo screen appears and prevents data on the screen from being displayed.

Secure LockWare™ Prevents DataTheft

The problem

Theft : What's on your Hard Drive? Losing the storage device is bad enough, but what about the personal information, customer lists, and your company's internal data?

The solution

Encryption :They may have stolen your hard drive, but they can't use it, or view any information on it, without your password.

Secure LockWare™ safeguards your data.

You handle all sorts of data every day. Some of that data contains personal or work-related sensitive information that you do not want released to the public. If the data is encrypted with AES, it's safe, even if the media ever gets out of your possession.
