    Llega PicoDiskCryptoX (inglés)

    With the ever increasing use being made of USB portable memories, within the professional environment and among companies, the need has been growing for having transporting sensitive and confidential data stored on protected supports, even in case of misplacement or theft of the storage device. PicodiskCryptoX protects data by means of 256-bit AES encryption directly on the memory, through a unique and innovative process, such as to guarantee resilience against the very widespread attacks on the password.

    This product is going to replace for the PicoDiskCrypto which has been with us for a while. Representing the best possible backup device for secret data, it offers far greater storage capacity than its predecessor, plus faster transfer speed and protected data backup.

    Picodisk Crypto X is a high speed USB 2.0 key with up to 2GB memory that guarantees protection of data via 256-bit AES encryption.

    Compared to the previous PicoDiskCrypto the new PicoDiskCryptoX comes with:

    • 256-bit AES encryption algorithm (against 128-bit)
    • Backup: you can make full-image backups of the PicoDiskCryptoX contents; would you unintentionally corrupt the files, a restore function will recreate al the data saved in the backup image (against no backup support)
    • Linux support: Leveraging Linux cryptoloop functionalities, you can now use PicoDiskCrypto on Linux as well (against no Linux support) - PicoDiskCryptoX obviously runs also under Windows 98/98SE/ME/2000/XP
    • Ad-hoc cryptographic algorithm: organizations that have a need to protect their data on the USB mass storage device by means of their own cryptographic algorithm can easily reach their goal (against no customization of the encryption algorithm)
    • Storage capacity up to 2GB (against max 512MB)
    • USB 2.0 high speed and USB 1.1 retro-compatibility: max data transfer rate is up to 5MB/sec for reading and up to 3MB/sec for writing operations on USB 2.0 ports (against USB 1.1 full speed only featuring max data transfer rate of 800 kbyte/sec for reading and 400 kbyte/sec for writing operations)
    • improved User Interface and security: from the login panel the user can access an onscreen keyboard to avoid sniffing of the key entered; the device can be initialized within the user interface in case PIN & PUK are either lost or stolen; a wizard for the creation of a new PIN & PUK is available during first initialization of the key which suggests an easy to remember random PIN or classify for the one typed in by the user as unsafe / home / commercial / military (against no onscreen keyboard or emergency init or PIN suggestion or bit classification)
    • shockproof, waterproof and dust-tight casing (against glued housing)
