Locked digital vault
An encrypted drive is a storage device whose data has been scrambled using cryptographic algorithms, making it unreadable without the correct password or decryption key.
If the drive is lost or stolen, the contents remain inaccessible to anyone lacking authorization.
The company requires encrypted drives on all laptops containing customer data.
