Module description

The Seagate Secure® Enterprise Self-Encrypting Drives FIPS 140 Module is embodied in Seagate Cheetah, Constellation ES, Constellation, and Savvio SED model disk drives. The cryptographic module (CM) provides a wide range of cryptographic services using FIPS approved algorithms. Services include hardware-based data encryption, instantaneous user data disposal with cryptographic erase, independently controlled and protected user data LBA bands, and authenticated FW download. The services are provided through an industry-standard TCG Enterprise SSC interface.
