X-Wall FX
 |
USB/SATA Bridge Chip Real-time Full Disk Encryption with AES 256-bit Strength |
 |
The X-Wall FX family is the 8th generation of the patented X-Wall real-time full disk encryption technology. X-Wall FX, the USB/SATA cryptographic bridge processor, is capable of conducting real-time full disk encryption over the connected SATA disk drives. It equips with tightly integrated USB 2.0 and SATA interface controller that allows the connection of SATA disk drives to a host USB 2.0 interface controller, making it a perfect fit for modern USB interfaced external storage enclosure. Additionally, the FX offers NIST and CSE certified real-time hardware AES security up to 256-bit encryption strength to safeguard the entire content of the SATA disk drive.
The X-Wall FX is authenticated by a password entry from your personal computer keyboard as a pre-boot condition. At initialization, you get to select your pass phrase and the FX writes both encrypted pass phrase and AES secret key to the connected SATA disk drive. The loading of all authentication software is completely transparent to all users to ensure that there are no user interruptions. For user login, the password entry will be compared internally inside the FX to avoid attacks attempted over the host computer.
1. USB Portable Drive
The X-Wall FX real-time cryptographic processor along with its built-in password authentication software serve as a complete single chip solution for all USB 2.0 based external storage including SATA based disk drive and solid state disk.
2. Secure Motherboard
The FX can be mounted over a standard motherboard auxiliary USB port, making the USB port secured for an external SATA disk drive connection. The external SATA disk drive can be as easy as a SATA disk with fixture (without any type of bridge controller) only.
Engineering design is simple and straight forward with the X-Wall FX as both standard USB 2.0 and SATA interface controllers are built-in to avoid design difficulties. Password based authentication software is also supported to allow fast to market. Without the enabling of the powerful real-time AES cryptographic capability, the FX simply serves as a standard USB 2.0 to SATA disk controller.
