Description
The Silicon Data Vault® (SDV®) is a cryptographic hardware security device which asserts absolute control over the hard disk drive (HDD) at the earliest stage of boot up, ensuring the user is authenticated before any data can be accessed. The SDV® is operating system independent, works with any standard ATA HDD, and resides in the IDE channel, blocking and controlling all access to the HDD.
