Authorization Acquisition (AA)

---

MEMKOR is now offering CipherDrive on our Secure, High Endurance, and Rugged Military-grade SSDs. CipherDrive provides an additional layer of security - Authorization Acquisition (AA) - and extends protection to SSDs, operating systems, and hypervisor machines. 

CipherDrive installs in the protected shadow partition of the SSD. Pre-boot authentication must be achieved, via username/password, smartcard, or token, before SSD is unlocked and the Operating System or Hypervisor can boot.

This host software solution can provide secure storage of classified, secret, and top-secret* data in accordance with Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) and NIAP/Common Criteria.

* Requires two independent layers of encryption 

Supports 2-factor authentication and CAC/PIV/CIV/SIPRNET cards and tokens.

Using MEMKOR self-encrypting SSDs, you get all the MEMKOR benefits of military-grade hardware encryption, hardware triggered data elimination, high reliability, and high write-endurance, in a package designed and built rugged to perform in the harshest operating environments - temperature extremes, high shock, and high vibration.

Add CipherDrive to add another layer of security, a user friendly UI, support multiple users, activity and audit logs, and more...
