HD-X-Lock is a complete hard disk security management application.
|
HD-X-Lock is a complete hard disk security management application. It utilises the rarely heard-of built-in hardware security features of modern IDE/EIDE/Serial ATA hard disks, first introduced in ATA-3 standard, 1995. Today all desktop and notebook hard disk drives implement the security features.
HD-X-Lock will send the password entered by the user to the hard disk(s) installed in the system and lock the drive. When the hard disk is locked, all data and application stored on the hard disk are protected and the disk cannot be used for reading, writing or erasing. Of course, it is not possible to load the operating system from the disk or even to format it.
The HD-X-Lock boot device (floppy or CD) is used to unlock the hard disks on every boot. This implements the highest level of security: a combination of hardware device (HD-X-Lock boot device) and user code. These are both required to unlock the hard disk and start the operating system.
Unlocking does not mean that the disk is not protected. When the computer is switched off or restarted, the hard disk(s) are automatically locked again. Even if there is a power failure and the computer is stopped, the hard disks are locked automatically preventing other people from stealing the valuable data stored on the hard disk.
HD-X-Lock sets up the hardware password implemented by hard disk manufacturers, it offers a high level of security than other software based security encryption methods. If HD-X-Lock is configured correctly (using the registered version) it grants the user protection for his data which is not possible to crack by any software. Moreover, if someone disassemble the hard disk and replace the controller card, the security is still active and the hard disk drive is still locked.
HD-X-Lock does not do encryption and does not alter the data stored hard disk in any way. It is 100% compatible with any operating system or application (eg. Microsoft Windows, Linux, Solaris, Novell, etc).
