DigiSAFE DiskCrypt M100 User Manual 5
3 Using DISKCRYPT M100
3.1 Authentication
DISKCRYPT M100 comes with the 2.5” hard drive installed. You are ready to use it with
your computer anytime. If the hard drive is not installed, simply approach your local
reseller/distributor.
DISKCRYPT M100 requires users to authenticate themselves via two-factor
authentication before they are granted access to the installed drive. In order to do so,
users must have the included smart card (something you have) and its associated PIN
(something you know). The authentication process involves inserting the correct smart
card into DISKCRYPT M100, followed by PIN entry. Upon completion of these two steps,
the connected drive will present itself to the operating system and can be used like a
normal drive.
To connect DISKCRYPT M100 to your computer via USB, follow these easy steps:
1. Insert the USB cable to your computer’s USB port with the other thinner
micro-B end to DISKCRYPT M100.
Ensure correct connector orientation to obtain a snug fit.
2. Insert the smart card with the contacts facing up.
You may insert the card before or after connecting DISKCRYPT M100 to your
computer. Once a valid card is inserted, the keypad will turn on to allow key entry.
If an invalid card is inserted, the ERROR LED will light up.
3. Enter your PIN.
Once DISKCRYPT M100 recognizes that a valid card is inserted, you may proceed
to enter your 8-digit PIN. The default factory PIN is “12345678”. At the end of
your PIN entry, press the ENTER button.
(For Enterprise deployment, the default PIN will be provided by the Administrator.)
