Datalocker DL4 500GB HDD (FIPS 140-3 Level 3)

With the DataLocker DL4 HDD, your data is always encrypted on the drive. If you lose the drive on the train or it gets stolen, no one can access your files thanks to strong hardware encryption. This reduces the risk of a data breach and the stress that comes with it. If you want extra speed and shock resistance for mobile use and large files, choose the DL4 in the SSD version.

Ready to use, without hassle

The DL4 FE has a bright color touchscreen with a PIN keypad that changes order every time. You unlock the drive quickly and safely, without extra software or complicated steps on your laptop. This makes secure working easy even for non‑technical users.

Certified security for the strictest requirements with FIPS 140-3 Level 3 and EAL 5+

The drive uses advanced encryption and has FIPS 140-3 Level 3 and EAL5+ Common Criteria certification. This means it is suitable for organizations with high security requirements, such as government, healthcare, finance and other regulated sectors. It allows you to confidently demonstrate that you take serious measures to protect your data.

Stand-alone: you stay in control

If you use the DL4 FE without a management platform, an administrator can still enforce strong password policies. If a user forgets their password, the admin can unlock the drive with a separate admin password, so the user can safely regain access without losing data.

The admin can also enable the SilentKill function: with a special code, the keys are erased and all data becomes permanently unreadable. This is intended for situations where you want to be 100% sure that no one can ever recover your information.

Managed with SafeConsole: everything centrally controlled

When you connect the DL4 FE to SafeConsole, you can define central policies for all your drives. You control password complexity, protection against brute-force attacks, use on trusted computers only and optional antimalware.

If a drive is lost or goes with an external party, you can remotely lock, wipe, sanitize or even “detonate” it. This way, you keep control over your data, no matter where the drive goes.

PortBlocker: control over all USB ports

With DataLocker PortBlocker, you take the next step: full control over all USB ports in your organization. You decide which USB devices are allowed and which are blocked, preventing unsecured sticks or drives from being connected.

This directly supports your USB and removable media policy in line with the NIS2 directive and provides extra evidence for auditors when you perform USB risk assessments. If you want to dive deeper into this topic, read our blog on USB policy and NIS2 on the Hart 4 Technology website.

What does this deliver for you?

• Less risk of data breaches, fines and reputational damage.
• Less time spent on notifications, investigations and difficult conversations with management and customers.
• Employees who can work safely with sensitive data, without complex tools or extra barriers.
• IT that can centrally manage all drives and USB ports with clear rules and fast remote actions.
• A USB policy within your organization that better aligns with NIS2 requirements and supports internal audits or assessments. For more information, continue reading our blog on NIS2 and the use of USB storage media.

In short, with the combination of the DataLocker DL4 FE, SafeConsole and PortBlocker, you make carrying and using sensitive data secure, manageable and simple for people – exactly what you need in a NIS2 world.
