ViaSat UK has announced the availability of its encrypted hard drives for Mac OS.
The company claims the Eclypt range of hard drives is based on its government and military-accredited encrypted storage, and that it allows organisations of any size to take advantage of data encryption at the highest possible levels, from a full internal hard drive to a USB thumbstick.
CEO Chris McIntosh said: "Regardless of industry, size or the technology they use, organisations need to be sure that their valuable data, and that of their workers and customers, is protected to the best of their ability.
"This is true not only for protection from increasingly bold and creative criminals, but from regulatory bodies.
"We at ViaSat are taking our experience providing secure storage and communications to militaries and governments at the highest level and using it to ensure that all organisations and individuals have access to the degree of security needed in the 21st century."
The Eclypt products are certified to a FIPS 140-2 standard, while additional features are claimed to allow organisations to tailor devices to suit their specific needs.
"SMEs and individuals are now on the front line against cyber-crime. They therefore need the capabilities to defend themselves," added McIntosh.
