Break the limitation of 2TB. Now you can enjoy higher capacity in a single partition on Windows XP. Protect your precious pictures, videos, and other important data from being stolen or harvested from your social media accounts to be turned into deepfakes or other criminal misuses. You can transfer files from your smartphones and other digital devices through the computer into the CipherShield hardware encrypted drive for secure storage. Don’t store your pictures or videos on social media; store them securely in Ciphershield drive. Don’t leave your files on your computer where they are not encrypted; move them to the CipherShield drive. Criminals cannot decrypt your files without the hardware key, even if your drive is stolen.

Supporting USB A on the PC side means the drive will work right out of the box without hunting for the right port or cable. It is also backward compatible with USB 2.0, so you don’t need to worry about being unable to use it with previous generations’ USB systems. eSATA interface is provided as protection against USB Threats or where USB is disabled as a security policy. According to the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), security risks are associated with USB drives. To read more about the threat, download the Honeywell White Paper.
