Kanguru Defender SED300

Unlike standard consumer SSDs, the SED300 is built specifically for high-security environments. It includes FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certification, AES 256-bit hardware encryption, and a tamper-resistant epoxy coating to protect sensitive data from physical and digital breaches.

No. Because the drive uses dedicated hardware encryption rather than software-based processes, it maintains high-speed performance. You get the full benefits of NVMe PCIe speeds, with sequential read speeds up to 3300 MB/s, without the latency typically associated with encrypted drives.

Pre-boot authentication requires a password before the computer's operating system even loads. This ensures that if the drive is stolen or accessed by an unauthorized party, they cannot boot the system or view any data stored on the drive.

The SED300 uses an NVMe PCIe Gen 3 x 4 interface with an M.2 2280 form factor. It is compatible with most modern systems that support these standards, but you should verify that your motherboard or laptop has an available M.2 slot that supports NVMe protocols.

The drive is designed for enterprise and government use, featuring a tamper-resistant epoxy coating. This makes it extremely difficult to physically access the internal components or bypass the security measures without leaving clear evidence of tampering.
