Thank you for purchasing the iStorage datAshur
®
PRO
2
, an ultra-secure and easy to use, hardware encrypted USB 3.2 Gen 1
PIN authenticated flash drive with capacities up to 512GB and rising.
The datAshur PRO
2
incorporates a rechargeable battery allowing the user to enter a 7-15 digit PIN (Personal Identification
Number) onto the on-board keypad to unlock the drive before connecting to a USB port. To lock the drive and encrypt all
data, simply eject the datAshur PRO
2
from the host computer and the entire contents of the drive will be encrypted (full disk
encryption) using military grade AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption. If the drive is lost or stolen and an incorrect PIN is
entered 10 consecutive times (default setting), the datAshur PRO
2
defence mechanism will be triggered to protect against
unathorised access.
The datAshur PRO
2
can be configured with both User and Admin PINs and can also be programmed to include a ‘User
Recovery PIN’ making it perfect for corporate and government deployment. As the datAshur PRO
2
is unlocked via the
on-board keypad and not a host computer, it is not vulnerable to software/hardware based key-loggers or brute force attacks.
One of the unique and underlying security features of the GDPR compliant datAshur PRO
2
is the dedicated hardware based
secure microprocessor (Common Criteria EAL4+ ready), which employs built-in physical protection mechanisms designed
to defend against external tamper, bypass attacks and fault injections. Unlike other solutions, the datAshur PRO
2
reacts to an
automated attack by entering the deadlock frozen state, which renders all such attacks as useless. In plain and simple terms,
without the PIN there’s no way in!
