Seagate Has Shipped Over 1 Million Self-Encrypting Hard Drives
Seagate today announced that it has shipped more than 1 million self-encrypting laptop and enterprise hard drives. Sales of the Seagate hard drives with built-in encryption continue to surge as more computer makers offer the drives to protect against unauthorized access to sensitive data, more independent software vendors team up with Seagate to provide the management capabilities required for company-wide installations of self-encrypting laptop PCs, and more of the drives win U.S. government certifications.
Companies and government organizations worldwide increasingly are securing confidential information on self-encrypting hard drives, recognizing that this commonsense yet powerful approach simplifies the deployment of security for data at rest, said Charles Kolodgy, research director of security products for analyst group IDC. As storage and security continue to converge, solutions like Seagates self-encrypting hard drives are leading the way by providing organizations with the strong, easy-to-use security they need to protect their data assets.
