Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

The module is a ruggedized, opaque, tamper-resistant USB disk encryption/file encryption device that connects to an external general purpose computer (GPC) outside of its cryptographic boundary to service as a secure peripheral storage device for the GPC. The module is a self-contained device that automatically encrypts and decrypts data copied to and from the drive from the externally connected GPC.
