Secure SSD
U.2
PCIe Gen 5
NSA CSFC COMPLIANT • DATA-AT-REST PROTECTION • ENTERPRISE U.2 FORM FACTOR
The Patriot Circuits Secure SSD (U.2 PCIe Gen 5) is designed for mission-critical deployments requiring NSA CSfC for Data-at-Rest (DAR) compliance. When integrated with Pre-Boot Authentication (PBA) and Software Full Drive Encryption (FDE), it enables a complete, dual-layered encryption strategy that satisfies the NSA’s CSfC layered protection mandate. Patriot Circuits’ unified solution simplifies deployment while meeting the rigorous security standards required by federal agencies.
