NAND Flash Products - FIPS Certified PCIe

Intelligent Memory SSDs are designed with security at their core, and certified to the NIST FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standards) 140-2 storage encryption standard.

These SSDs provide unparalleled protection for your data. Built to meet the rigorous standards set by the US National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST), our SSDs ensure that your valuable information remains safe from unauthorized access and tampering.
Intelligent Memory - Security FIPS Certified Drives

FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) self-secured encrypted SSDs are crucial for safeguarding sensitive data in a variety of industries and environments, particularly those dealing with government, financial, and healthcare data. Here’s why they are important:

1. Strong Data Protection:

FIPS-certified SSDs ensure that the storage device meets stringent encryption standards mandated by government agencies. These drives typically use AES-256 encryption, which is one of the most secure encryption methods available. This protects against unauthorized access to data, even if the physical SSD is stolen or misplaced.

2. Compliance with Security Standards:

For organizations that handle sensitive data, like government entities, healthcare providers, and financial institutions, using FIPS-compliant storage is often a regulatory requirement. For example, in the U.S., FIPS certification is required for data security in government-related applications, ensuring that the storage meets the federal standards for encryption.

3. Self-Encrypting Drives (SEDs):

FIPS self-encrypted SSDs provide automatic, hardware-level encryption, meaning data is encrypted as it’s written to the drive and decrypted when read. This process is invisible to the user and doesn’t affect system performance, making it seamless while offering robust security.

4. Protection Against Data Breaches:

Encrypted SSDs with FIPS certification help mitigate the risk of data breaches. In case of loss or theft of a device, data remains encrypted and inaccessible to unauthorized users, protecting sensitive personal, financial, or proprietary information.

5. Secure Data Erasure:

Many FIPS-certified SSDs feature secure erase functions that permanently delete all data, ensuring it cannot be recovered. This feature is vital when retiring or repurposing devices, ensuring sensitive information cannot be retrieved from discarded storage media.

6. Trusted by High-Security Industries:

Industries like defense, law enforcement, and financial services rely on FIPS-compliant SSDs because they need to secure highly confidential and critical data. The certification gives confidence that the devices adhere to the highest security standards.

In summary, FIPS self-secured encrypted SSDs are important because they ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, provide robust data security, protect against breaches, and are trusted in high-security environments. These drives are a key component in safeguarding sensitive data, both in transit and at rest.
