PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Bond Disc is a secure archiving solution and ramdisk in a single package.
What sets it apart from other products in the market is its ease-of-use
– it requires only a minimum of intervention from the user – and its
military-grade advanced security features.
ENCRYPTION
- Encryption algorithm: SSRC-MIL08-0001
- Standard key length: 128-bit
- Variable key length extension: 128-bit – ∞
- Brute force processing time required: 1032 years
- Earliest brute force threat: not before 2070
- Military-grade proprietary encryption algorithm vetted by leading security experts
- Full publication of the encryption algorithm in the near future for full vetting by the entire
security community and long term support of the encryption standard
- No master key – no government snooping or rogue security threat
- Archive directories can be public or hidden
- Archive label describes the content, optional
- Abstract of any file format, e.g. a readme or demo, can be added and is always accessible
RELIABILITY
- Data mirroring and parity generation, triple redundancy, optional
- Fully integrated advanced error correction
- Recovery of files from damaged media and under conditions of severe scrambling
- Fully documented parity format to support third party error correction
COMPRESSION
DATA TRANSFER
- Unrestricted
- PC file systems, networks, memory sticks, notebooks
- Encryption, parity and archive attributes are transferred completely
- Simple integrity check of transferred archives
- Easy synchronization of ramdisk content and archives from notebooks
BUILT-IN RAMDISK
- Size: 1 MB to 640 MB
- Resize at any time, all files on the ramdisk are preserved
- Drive letter (default Z:) can be changed without reboot at any time
- Backup modes: none (files are held in RAM only), persistent (save on shutdown, initialize on boot),
autosave (after a specified interval)
- Backup status at a glance
- Ramdisk content can be stored in an archive and restored at any time and location
SECURITY FEATURES
- Safeguards data against theft and loss
- Protects against trojans which scan the hard disk
- Secure key editing prevents key-logging
- Hibernation manager guards and encrypts sensitive data on notebooks before they enter sleep mode
- Access to the files on the ramdisk volume can be limited to trusted applications only
- Access to the ramdisk can be locked by the user or automatically
- Secure archive manager to provide access to files to authorized personnel only
- Peer and department seals to restrict access to confidential data on a need-to-know basis
- Straightforward purge of the ramdisk, keys, encrypted and cached data
- All security sensitive data is maintained by a secure kernel-mode only driver
- Secure handshake between user interface (desktop) and kernel-mode driver to prevent malicious software exploits
EASE-OF-USE
