Aegis Bio

The Aegis Bio is a hardware encrypted biometric hard drive that allows users to securely access their files with a fingerprint biometric sensor. Once registered, secure files can be accessed with just a swipe of a finger.

Designed for mobile professionals, Apricorn's Aegis Bio incorporates multiple layers of protection:

• Hardware-based Biometric Protection - UPEK® TouchStrip™ Fingerprint Sensor and Digital ID Hardware Engine
• Real-time Hardware-based Encryption - Oxford Semiconductor® storage controller IC provides real-time data encryption via 128-bit AES encryption, rendering data on the drive impenetrable even if it is removed from the enclosure
• Rugged Design – the bus powered Aegis Bio features a 16-point omni-directional shock mounting system protecting the drive from accidental bumps and knocks
• Integrated USB cable for hassle-free connection

Apricorn's Aegis Bio is cross platform compatible. Once registered, the Aegis Bio requires no software on the host computer to access your data, allowing access to files on any USB equipped computer. In addition to securing your data, the Aegis Bio allows users to login to Windows(R) and password-protected online accounts with a simple swipe of the finger using UPEK’s Protector Suite™ Token software.

With 80GB, 120GB and 160GB capacities, the Aegis Bio is the perfect option for taking sensitive information on the road and is ideal for IT departments looking to secure their mobile users.

In addition to biometric security and hardware encryption, the bus powered Aegis Bio features an integrated USB 2.0 cable (eliminating the need to carry around bulky USB cables), an auxiliary power Y-cable, software CD, a neoprene travel pouch and Quick Start Guide.
