DCPP allows you to secure your disk(s)(including removable media) with a powerful and proven encryption algorithm(AES-256) at the sector level, ensuring that only authorized users access it. The encryption algorithm is a trusted,validated algorithm chosen by the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) and slated to be the cryptographic standard for years to come. AES-256 is a FIPS-approved symmetric encryption algorithm that may be used by U.S.Government organizations(and others) to protect sensitive information.DCPP is automatic and completely transparent to the user.Not only does this decrease user involvement and training requirements, but it creates the foundation for enforceable Sécurité. The careful integration of boot protection and automatic encryption provides a high degree of Sécurité with minimal impact on users. Boot protection prevents subversion of the operating Système (via floppy bootup, for example) or the introduction of rogue programs while sector by sector encryption makes it impossible to copy individual files for brute force attacks. DCPP safeguards the operating Système and the important Système files (which often contain clues to passwords for Windows).DCPP is the fastest and most feature-rich real-time encryption Système available, Special care has been taken to render all cryptographic parts as invisible and transparent as possible.The user is authenticated by means of pre-boot authentication (PBA) before the Système is started and therefore before the operating Système is booted. This kind of authentication cannot be manipulated, PBA therefore guarantees maximum Sécurité.Neither keys nor passwords are stored on the PCs hard disk.All of the information required to boot the operating Système is derived from the password.This makes the use of hard disk Outils for analyzing the hard disk completely ineffective.PBA in provided by a Système call BootAuth and is fully graphical, allowing organizations to customize the login screen.
