Losing hardware is a pain, but everything is replaceable.
Allowing data to fall into someone else’s hands is the ultimate headache. Once your data is out there in the wild, it’s game over.
The “solution” is to encrypt your data. But the problem with that solution is that unless the encryption is easy and foolproof, users are going to sacrifice data security for convenience.
If you want easy-to-use high security encryption, then you need hardware that’s aimed at professionals, and that hardware doesn’t get much better than the Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3.0.
Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3.0 tech specs:
- No software – so there’s nothing to keylog or to hack.
- OS agnostic – the device is completely cross platform compatible.
- Onboard keypad – all authentication takes place within the device itself.
- All data, passwords and encryption keys are 256-bit encrypted at rest.
- No host computer is involved in setup, authentication or encryption.
- Forced enrollment – no default PINs ensures that data is not put at risk by employees who fail to change a factory set PIN before deployment.
- IP68 rated against water and dust damage.
- Separate administrator and user access.
- Read-only options that can be enforced by the administrator or set by the user if allowed by policy.

“For an added level of security, there’s also the ability to set a self-destruct PIN to quickly wipe the drive of its contents yet make it seem like it is fully working.”
