1. INTRODUCTION
DIGISTOR Citadel SSDs protect against unauthorized access using CipherDrive pre-boot authentication
(PBA) built into the self-encrypting drive. Each Citadel self-encrypting drive (SED) is FIPS certified and is
the only SSD brand that has PBA natively built-in.
Once fully set up and configured, the Citadel SSD will require you to securely authenticate access to the
drive before any operating system or virtual machine stored on the SSD can start up. Then after you au-
thenticate and sign in, changes can be made to the drive in real-time until the host computer is powered off.
This User Manual will help you install the Citadel SSD and activate it for use. It also includes instructions for
using the PBA's Settings Console, including managing users and user roles and configuring the PBA for
smart card or password access.
