## Long description

The Apricorn Aegis Padlock 2TB is a portable external hard drive with integrated keypad security and hardware AES-XTS 256-bit encryption. It connects via an integrated USB 3.0 (USB 3.2 Gen 1) cable for high-speed transfers up to 5 Gbps while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1. The drive is designed and assembled in the U.S.A., features a compact rugged black housing with shock mounting, and offers software-free operation that requires no admin rights.
Advantages
The Aegis Padlock provides real-time, military-grade encryption without installing software, protecting data at rest including PINs and encryption keys. Its integrated USB cable and wear-resistant keypad simplify everyday use and reduce accessory needs. Built-in security measures — including VTC timing protection, a sealed epoxy-coated encryption module, auto-lock, brute-force self-destruct, and a drive reset option — help prevent unauthorized access and make the device suitable for secure transport and deployment in corporate environments.
Suitable for
Secure transport and backup of sensitive files
Use with laptops and desktops across Windows, macOS and Linux
Corporate deployment requiring hardware-based encryption without admin installation
Field workers and travel where a compact, rugged drive is needed

How to use
Connect the integrated USB cable to a compatible USB port on your computer. Set up an Admin PIN and, optionally, up to five User PINs directly on the device keypad; no software installation or admin rights are required. Enter a valid PIN at the keypad to unlock the drive and access files. If needed, use the Admin PIN to unlock or re-enroll users. To clear all data and reset the device, perform the drive reset command using the keypad instructions provided by the manufacturer.
Usage recommendations
Store the device in a secure location when not in use, enable the auto-lock feature for unattended scenarios, and keep a record of admin PIN procedures in a separate, secure place. Regularly back up critical data; a reset or self-destruct event irreversibly erases stored information.
