Superior Solution for Portable PC
Users Includes Self Encryption
As a non-volatile storage device, the SSD has no
moving parts such as the motor, disks and heads
of a hard drive. Thus it eliminates spin-up time,
seek time and rotational latency while delivering
sustained high-speed data transfers. The SSD’s
lack of moving parts makes it noise free and its
ultra-low power consumption virtually eliminates
heat emissions.
One of the Samsung SSD’s special features
is hardware-based self encryption to protect
confidential data from unauthorized access.
This security capability is TCG Opal compliant
and uses the 128-bit Advanced Encryption
Standard, which has been approved and adopted
by the government. Compared to currently
available software-based disk encryption,
Samsung’s approach offers faster performance,
better security and an “always on” feature.
Encryption keys and access credentials stay
within the drive hardware rather than being
stored in software, increasing security and
simplifying management.
