High Density Devices AS gets award:
Info Security Products Guide names High Density Devices (HDD) winner of its
2011 Tomorrow's Technology Today Award. HDD was selected a winner in the
"Encryption Solution" category with its [hiddn](TM) Crypto Adapter.
High Density Devices (HDD) is proud to announce Info Security Products Guide,
the industry's leading information security research and advisory guide, has
named HDD's [hiddn](TM) Crypto Adapter a winner of the 2011 Tomorrow's
Technology Today Award. This prestigious award recognizes security vendors with
advanced, ground-breaking technologies and solutions that are helping set the
bar higher for others in all areas of information security. The Crypto Adapter
has been selected based on technologies that are making the most positive impact
on security in today's highly sophisticated and blended attacks environment, and
the highly user-friendly and innovative product for encryption of all USB
storage media came out head of the field.
The product supports USB-based storage media such as memory sticks and external
hard drives, and is based upon HDD's patented encryption technology - a
technology which is also amongst the highest certified encryption solutions in
the marketplace today. The product encrypts regular USB storage media, costing
far less than today's competing "security" USBs, and is highly secure as all
encryption keys are stored on a smartcard, making the [hiddn](TM) Crypto
Adapter superior to the majority of other solutions, where the encryption key
is stored on the storage media itself.
Competing solutions are normally expensive, especially when the "specialized"
USB unit is lost or stolen. By using the [hiddn](TM) Crypto Adapter, the loss is
limited to the standard and low-priced USB memory stick used.
"Probably nothing differentiates any product or solution more than the superior
technologies that make them suitable for today's needs while pro-actively being
ready for tomorrow too," says Rake Narang, editor-in-chief, Info Security
Products Guide. "Threats are possible in many different disguised forms so
security awareness is key to a proactive approach."
The [hiddn](TM) Crypto Adapter may be used in the office, the home office, while
travelling, in corporate meeting rooms, for secure transport of data (e.g.
between Health institutions or governmental organizations, from the field to
head office, etc.) and is ideal for larger organizations where, by incorporating
the [hiddn](TM) KMS ("Key Management System"), the organization can itself
administer smart cards and encryption keys.
"The recognition from Info Security Products Guide further validates the
innovative and unique approach to protection of external storage media taken by
our Crypto Adapter", comments Chief Marketing Officer at High Density Devices,
Mr. Tormod Fjellgaard.
Come see the award winning [hiddn](TM) Crypto Adapter at stand # 2533, and
experience our Key Management System demonstrated at the OASIS stand (#732) at
the RSA 2011 Conference in San Francisco, USA between February 14 and February
18.
