Seagate Launches Encrypted Laptop HDDs
By: Gaurav Seth   |   Oct 31, 2006

In a step forward to simplify the security and management of private data stored on any computing device, Seagate Technology is introducing a new security platform that delivers a simple, cost-effective way to deploy the highest levels of security for computing systems, computer electronics and mobile devices by protecting data where it lives—on the hard disc drive.

The Seagate security platform called DriveTrust Technology automatically protects all drive data, not just selected partitions or files, at all times, and its security functions operate independently of the hard drive, preserving the hard drive's full performance.

In the first quarter of 2007, Seagate plans to introduce Momentus 5400 FDE.2 for laptop computers, the first hard drive with full disc encryption.

Momentus 5400 FDE.2 provides an easy, cost-effective way to prevent unauthorized access to all notebook PC data in case the system or disc drive is lost, stolen, retired or resold. The 2.5-inch, 5,400-RPM drive's hardware-based full disc encryption delivers significantly stronger protection than traditional encryption approaches by securely performing all cryptographic operations and access control within the drive.
