This is a quantum-hardened encrypted USB device, which is designed by experienced cryptographers and every effort is made to keep it secure. Combining it with our Qryptic post-quantum cryptography software, you can make an almost-unbreakable cipher generation tool. AES256 is selected as the encryption algorithm, due to NIST recommendation for its use in handling secret and top secret documents. Only known attack on AES is side-channel attack, which is prevented in this device by doing on-chip encryption.
Choice of ECB (electronics code book) mode (other modes like CTR, CBC, OFB, CFB and XTS are available on request), while this mode is not usually recommended for cryptographic protocols in data transmission scenarios as it fails to hide data patterns when it encrypts identical plaintext blocks into identical ciphertext blocks., it have several advantages in data storage applications including it is resistant against adaptive chosen-ciphertext attack & padding oracle attack through specific bit-error, and this also provides data reliability in the situation of bad clusters. Full metal body make this device resistant to EMP attacks. Failsafe feature enables user to conveniently destroy data in situations where the user is forced to decrypt the data. Both microcontroller and EMMC chip are chosen to be on BGA footprint on a multilayer PCB with no checkpoints, this makes data sniffing by hacker to be extremely difficult. Furthermore, all data communication between microcontroller and EMMC chip is AES encrypted, so in a worst-case-scenario even if the EMMC chip is desoldered and any attempt to read data may go in vain. The microcontroller has an on-chip NIST-certified TRNG (true random number generator), which further hardens AES encryption against password cracking attempts. On-chip hardware AES encryption engine enables high speed encryption and decryption (Read: 160MB/s and Write: 120MB/s),while also making the device resistant against side-channel attacks as all encryption is carried-out on-chip and no PC software is involved., while not usually recommended for cryptographic protocols in data transmission scenarios as it fails to hide data patterns when it encrypts identical plaintext blocks into identical ciphertext blocks., it have several advantages including it is resistant against adaptive chosen-ciphertext attack & padding oracle attack through specific bit-error, and this also provides data reliability in the situation of bad clusters.
