FAQs

What are the key security features of the Aegis Secure Key 3NXC?
The Aegis Secure Key 3NXC features comprehensive security measures including 256-bit AES XTS hardware encryption, tamper-evident design, brute force self-destruct protection, and a wear-resistant polymer-coated keypad for PIN entry. It includes separate Admin and User modes, self-destruct PIN capability, and lock override features. The device is protected by hardened epoxy and features locked-down firmware to prevent malware attacks like BadUSB. All data is encrypted on the fly, and the device's PINs and data remain encrypted while at rest.
What is the storage capacity and USB compatibility of this drive?
The Aegis Secure Key 3NXC offers 128GB of storage capacity and features a USB 3.2 (Gen 1) Type-C connector. This makes it compatible with modern devices equipped with USB-C ports while providing high-speed data transfer capabilities. The drive is completely cross-platform compatible and works with Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, Chrome, and any system with a powered USB port and storage file system.
How durable is the Aegis Secure Key 3NXC?
The Aegis Secure Key 3NXC is built for exceptional durability with multiple protective features. It's waterproof, dust resistant, and crush resistant. The device measures 3.2" in length, 0.7" in width, and 0.4" in height, with a rugged construction. The keypad buttons are polymer-coated for wear resistance, and all internal components are protected by a layer of hardened epoxy to prevent physical tampering.
How does the PIN authentication system work?
The device uses an onboard keypad authentication system that operates independently from the host computer. Users must enter their PIN directly on the device's wear-resistant keypad to unlock it. There are no factory default PINs - Admin must first establish a unique PIN during initial setup. The system supports separate Admin and User PINs, with Admin having full configuration rights and User mode limited to basic drive functions. The device remains invisible to the host system until properly authenticated.
What happens if a user forgets their PIN?
The Aegis Secure Key 3NXC includes a Data Recovery PIN feature that helps manage forgotten User PINs. When implemented, Recovery PINs can create a new state of User Forced Enrollment while preserving the Admin PIN and drive's data. This allows users to generate a new User PIN and restore access to the drive's contents. The Admin can also program the device to require users to establish their own unique PINs before first use.
