COMMANDER 3F
An exclusive shock-absorbing mechanism (patent pending) is built into the enclosure. Its function is to keep the hard drive suspended within the casing, while dissipating the heat produced by the hard drive. The Commander line is designed this way to allow peak performance while operating at an optimal temperature.
One of the most secure and cutting-edge hardware-based encryption chipsets is integrated into the internal circuitry of the Commander lines. The cryptographic encryption module contains features such as Advanced Encryption Standard Algorithm AES-256 bit key strength, and real-time encryption so that there is virtually zero time in encrypting and decrypting the data. While in either CBC or ECB modes, the encryption chipset bears certifications from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and FIPS Level 2 for a Cryptographic Module. The Commander is authenticated by a digital key token, which is inserted for authentication, and removed soon after the device is authenticated, and then ready for secure data transfer. |

How Does Commander Encrypted External Hard Drives Protect Your Data?
Q: What security technology does Commander external hard drives adopt?
A: Several security schemes are popularly employed to protect data, including:
- Password security without hardware encryption - This basic OS/software solution blocks unauthorized data access by requiring a password. While this may be adequate for a coffee break, this form of security is very easy to bypass.
- Biometric security without hardware encryption - This form of security requires a combination of a unique physical characteristic, such as a fingerprint, retinal scan, or vocal signature. While more secure than simple password security, it can be circumvented too, leaving unencrypted data at risk. Biometric security also requires a substantial hardware investment and additional administrative burden.
- Hardware security—Hardware security is by far the most thorough, cost-effective, and easily implemented form of advanced security.
Rocsecure—Commander external drives use hardware-based security, performed by eNova’s X-Wall MX, to provide reliable security for your stored data. Every bit and byte on the hard drive is strongly encrypted by AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). There is no possibility that clear text will remain on the hard drive.
Q: What is hardware-based encryption?
A: Encryption is a sophisticated mathematical calculation (or algorithm) combining a “secret key” and clear text. The resulting “cipher text” is an unreadable code that can only be decrypted with the original “secret key.” The hardware encryption, performed by eNova X-Wall microchip, delivers significant performance improvement over software encryption, works with every operating system found today, and requires no additional training to use. This encryption methodology protects your valuable data with minimum Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
Q: How does encryption function?
A: X-Wall MX sits between the PCI Bridge and the device on the SATA interface. It intercepts, interprets, translates, and relays real-time commands and data to and from the disk drives, encrypting the data with AES-256 bit key strength. The following illustration best describes how the security chipset functions.
Q: What is the secure key and why use it?
A: The secure key (or digital key or key token) is a physical key that contains the “secret key” necessary for encryption and decryption operations. The hard drive must be partitioned and formatted using the secure key the first time the hard drive is used. When complete, the entire content of the hard drive is associated with the unique secure key. Only a secure key containing the identical “secret key” can be used for authentication and decryption of the hard drive at power up.
Q: Do I need to establish a separate “encrypted folder” under file directory as required by some software solutions?
A: No. Everything you write to the disk drive is automatically strongly encrypted. There is no need to establish a separate “encrypted folder.”
Q: Does X-Wall MX increase the original file size after encryption?
A: No. AES is a complicated mathematical algorithm that computes the original data with 128 or 256 bit key length. Regardless of the size of the encryption key, the size of data file after encryption remains unchanged.
Q: Are Commander encrypted drives compatible with all disk drive types?
A: Commander encrypted hard drives are compatible with Ultra SATA/eSATA compliant disk drives in real-time performance.
Q: Can Commander external drives work with any operating system?
A: Commander external drives require no device drivers and are independent from all operating systems. A host controller with a USB/SATA mass storage driver typically provided by the OS is required. The only requirement is an Ultra SATA/eSATA compliant disk drive.
Q: How do I know my Commander encrypted external drives are really secured?
A: The AES hardware engine utilized by X-Wall MX has been validated by FIPS (US Federal Information Processing Standard) 140-2 Level 3 Cryptographic Engine for Physical Security and certified by the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) of USA and CSE (Communications Security Establishment) of Canada certified hardware AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm. To review these certificates, visit the following NIST web links: http://www.enovatech.net/resources/aes_no60.htm#a. These hardware algorithms are certified to provide reliable security; at full strength, it is virtually impossible to access the encrypted data by guessing or deriving the right AES key. Because everything on the disk is encrypted, your data is safe even if attackers try to boot from their own disk, or to move your disk to an unprotected machine.
Q: Can I remove the secure key while my PC is on?
A: Yes, you can remove the secure key for safekeeping after your operating system has fully loaded. Remember that the secure key must be used again the next time you power up your system.

How does it work?
X-Wall MX, an SATA to SATA cryptographic bridge chip, sits right in between host SATA and the device SATA hard drive, encrypting entire SATA drive with wire speed performance while providing up to 256-bit AES hardware strength.
System performance with X-Wall MX engaged is unaffected. X-Wall MX can be operated with SATA1.0a & 2.0 compliant disk drives with a sustained throughput of 150MB/sec. The performance-optimized AES hardware engine performs all encryption and decryption. There are no extra software components, eliminating entirely the memory and interrupt overheads.
X-Wall MX requires no device driver and is independent from and invisible to all known Operating Systems including embedded OS. As long as the drive is SATA1.0a & 2.0 compliant, X-Wall MX will work in the system. Once authenticated, its operation is completely transparent to all users. There is no complex GUI involved therefore your regular computing behavior is unchanged.
Key Management
Commander Key Management with X-Wall M includes PIN/Password through Pre-boot authentication a USB type external key token.
Key Benefits
- Offers wire speed performance at sustained 150MB/sec on all encryption strengths
- Operating System independent (No software installations required)
- FIPS (US Federal Information Processing Standard) 140-2 Level 3 Cryptographic Engine validated for Physical Security
- Provides iron-clad security through hardware-based NIST & CSE certified cryptographic AES engine
- Simplify engineering design for security targets
As the entire SATA hard drive is encrypted, there is no possibility of any secret being left unprotected on the drive, including password and "Secret Key." In an X-Wall MX protected system (drive), there is no simple way to read the data without the right "Secret Key." Only YOU have the right Key to unlock your data.
The X-Wall MX technology is compatible with all system designs incorporating SATA hard drive technologies
