Download Cigent’s Pre-Boot Authentication (PBA) datasheet to understand how hardware-based encryption is secured before a system even starts. This datasheet explains how PBA enforces authentication prior to OS boot, preventing unauthorized access to data stored on self-encrypting drives. It outlines how the solution combines hardware full drive encryption with a secure, OS-independent authentication layer to meet CSfC requirements. The content highlights protection against physical attacks such as device theft, cloning, and offline access attempts. Access the datasheet to evaluate how Cigent PBA delivers strong, pre-boot data-at-rest protection for mission-critical environments.
