Hybrid working is now many people's normality, with many employers encouraging a healthy mix of in-office and remote working. Some people thrive in an office setting but find it difficult working from home, so a mixed environment can provide the best of both worlds. With remote work possible from a home office and ‘on the go’ while commuting, it has been proven to increase productivity, reduce costs and help personal wellbeing.

But it comes with some concerns. Perhaps the largest issue is keeping your data secure – remote workers are more likely to have things stolen or lost in transit.

Eschborn, Germany – 29 June 2021:  Verbatim is expanding its secure storage offering with the launch of new external hard drives and SSDs with encryption and biometric technology to ensure that private data saved on the devices is always fully protected and compliant with GDPR requirements.

Encased in sleek aluminium enclosures, the new Executive Fingerprint Secure Hard Drive in 1TB and 2TB capacities and Executive Fingerprint Secure SSD in 512MB and 1TB use a combination of AES 256-bit hardware encryption and fingerprint recognition technology to seamlessly encrypt all data on the drive in real-time.  With 100% of the drive securely encrypted, all the content is safe from unauthorised access if the drives are ever lost or stolen.

With the massive increase in the use of mobile devices, and attacks against government networks and business databases escalating, data security and encryption continues to be a hot topic. Encryption scrambles data in such a way that only someone with the correct code or key can read it, so if your HDD is lost or stolen, you can be confident that the content of the drive cannot be accessed.

Verbatim would like to again remind you of how imperative it is to back up your data – take a look at our quick guide to backing up and archiving.

A fast processor can handle billions of cycles a second, but it often spends a lot of time waiting for the drive to feed it data. Hard drives are particularly sluggish because they have platters that have to spin up and a read / right arm that has to find its way physically to the data sectors you're currently seeking. To get optimal performance, you need a good solid state drive (SSD).
