The DataLocker DL450 FE Managed removes that weakness entirely — and then puts your IT team in control of every drive in your fleet. It is a rugged, TAA-compliant encrypted portable SSD built for organisations that cannot afford a data breach, and the Managed edition adds a mandatory SafeConsole connection that gives administrators centralised visibility, policy enforcement, and remote wipe capability from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption runs directly on the device, with onboard key generation that never exposes keys to the host system. FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified, Common Criteria EAL 5+ certified, and sourced through a NATO-trusted supply chain — the DL450 FE meets the standards that matter in regulated environments. The Managed edition requires SafeConsole for activation and ongoing management. In exchange, it unlocks smart card authentication (CAC, PIV, YubiKey PIV), automated audit reporting, certified data erasure with proof of destruction, and the ability to remotely disable or wipe a drive the moment it is reported lost or stolen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption with onboard key generation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified | Common Criteria EAL 5+ certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTAA compliant | NATO-trusted supply chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP67 rated | MIL-STD-810H certified — built for field use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires SafeConsole for activation and management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmart card authentication: CAC, PIV, YubiKey PIV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCentralised policy enforcement, remote wipe, and audit reporting via SafeConsole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C interface — USB 3.2 and USB 2.0 compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSSD: 250 MB\/s read, 250 MB\/s write (USB-C 3.2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware sanitize with cryptographic erase (NIST 800-88) in seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKensington Security Slot for physical protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, 7.6TB, and 15.3TB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Windows and macOS | 3-year limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe physical build matches the security ambitions of the electronics inside. The metal-framed enclosure is IP67 rated against dust and water immersion, and MIL-STD-810H certified for shock, vibration, and temperature extremes. Epoxy-coated internals mean the drive resists physical tampering. A Kensington Security Slot gives you the option to cable-lock it to a desk or equipment rack when in use. This is a drive that survives the environments it is deployed in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the Standard edition supports standalone use, the Managed edition is designed from the ground up for fleet deployment. SafeConsole handles onboarding, policy assignment, access control, and compliance reporting across every drive in the organisation. Remote disable and remote wipe mean a lost drive stops being a liability the moment you act on it. Certified data erasure with tamper-evident proof of destruction satisfies the audit requirements that regulated industries demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDataLocker DL450 FE Managed Encrypted Portable SSD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C to USB-C cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C to USB-A adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick start guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Q\u0026amp;A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails open=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between the Standard and Managed editions?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Standard edition (DL450 FE) works as a standalone device — password and biometric authentication, no management software required.
