Unlike software based encryption products on the market, the Kanguru Encryptor is completely hardware based, ensuring real-time encryption without sacrificing system performance. The Kanguru Encryptor utilizes a silicon based real-time encryption/decryption processor that encrypts the entire disk's content bit-by-bit, including the boot sector and the operating system without performance degradation. Furthermore, the Kanguru Encryptor works with all operating systems and does not require device drivers!

Specifications:

Two access keys for authentication and encryption operations
Driverless on all operating systems, whether its Windows, Mac or Linux.
Equipped with NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) certified DES encryption and decryption engine
Offers military grade protection for your sensitive data.
Uses silicon based real-time engine, capable of handling 1.1 Gigabit per second throughput without taking extra CPU time and system resources
100% compatible with the latest motherboards and Ultra ATA (Ultra DMA) devices
Backwards compatible with PIO, DMA and FastATA drives.
