Addonics Technologies has announced a tool used to fully encrypt storage solutions. The CipherChain is a pass-through device between the storage device and the system.
The CipherChain supports devices connected via SATA or eSATA; inserting the Cipher key will activate the encryption and decryption of the data on the fly with no noticeable performance degradation. No software or drivers are required; the CipherChain is operating system independent.
In addition to SATA/eSATA, the CipherChain can also connect via USB 2.0/3.0 using an optional Addonics adapter.
The CipherChain has a NIST & CSE certified cryptographic AES engine. The Cipher key used for the encryption is AES 256-bit. All of the information on the drive, including the boot sector, is encrypted using the CipherChain.
Pricing and Availability
The Addonics CipherChain is available now for $95.
