Importance of a FIPS-140 Level 3 Validation in Data Recovery
We have offices all over the country, with five recovery labs in North America. When your data is shipped back to you, it may travel a long distance. Secure Data Recovery offers customers the option of having their data returned on a FIPS-140 level 3 certified drive. The configuration of these drives guarantees that if the drive is lost in transit or tampered with, your information stays completely secure.
When you choose our KP model SecureDrive, the drive is given a PIN using a random number generator. No one will be able to guess the PIN and if they were to attempt to enter the number, after 10 consecutive login attempts, the data is wiped from the drive.
The BT drive model is given a unique password as well and can only be accessed through the DataLock app on your phone. Both of these drives have Military Grade 256-bit AES XTS Hardware Encryption. Our FIPS certificates for these drives were awarded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology and can be found at the links below:

No other recovery company in the industry has FIPS validated data handling procedures, meaning your data is at risk of falling into the wrong hands during transit. We are the only data recovery company in the industry that boasts FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certification. When you work with Secure Data Recovery, you can be sure that you are using the most secure option to receive your crucial personal data.
