iStorage diskAshur2 1 TB krypteret bærbar HDD – USB 3.2 Gen 1, AES-XTS 256-bit, IP56, sort (IS-DA2-256-1000-B)

The iStorage diskAshur2 is a portable, hardware-encrypted external hard drive with 1 TB capacity and a USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface. It provides real-time AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption and a PIN-authenticated keypad (7–15 digits) for secure access without the need for software. The drive is platform-independent and works with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Chrome and any device with a USB port.

Advantages

The diskAshur2 offers hardware-based encryption with a dedicated secure microprocessor that includes physical tamper protection and is Common Criteria EAL4+ ready. Its software-free design simplifies deployment and use across multiple operating systems. The keypad PIN entry prevents unauthorized access, and the device enters a locked deadlock state if an automated attack is detected.

To secure the drive, disconnect it and the device will relock automatically after removal or when powered down.

Recommendations

Set a unique PIN between 7 and 15 digits and store it separately from the drive. Regularly back up important data to an additional secure location. Do not expose the device to extreme temperatures or physical tampering to preserve the effectiveness of the built-in security features.
