Sharkoon Unveils Swift-Case Securita
Author: Alessandra Carneiro Date: January 16, 2008 - 8:14 AM PST
Category: Storage
More Info: http://www.sharkoon.com/html/produkte/externe_gehaeuse/swift-case_secu...

Sharkoon is expanding its Swift-Case line up of external hard drive enclosures by adding a model with RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) access control, to protect against unauthorized access. Within the silver aluminium enclosure sits a RFID transceiver that responds solely to the accompanying RFID transponder. The transponder comes in a simple plastic fob design that attaches securely to key chains.

Users can establish a unique encryption key, so the hard drive can be locked or unlocked with a simple wave of the transponder in front of the sensor. The radio frequency is protected by 128-bit AES encryption.

The Swift-Case Securita transfers data to computers via USB 2.0. It will be available first in Europe for the suggested retail price of 34 euros (around US$ 50).
