The next-generation of laptops from Nec will come with built-in hardware security against illegal access to the HDD, and the models included in the series are Versa M370, Versa P570 and Versa S970.

The advanced security system consists of the Trusted Platform Module security chip plus the corresponding encrypting disk drive and client management software.

With this new combination of high-end security technologies, large organizations’ laptops will have their stored data protected even in case of steal or lost.

Olivier Chevance, the Client Products Marketing Manager at NEC declared:
"With so many high-profile data breaches making headlines, securing sensitive information at the source - the laptop itself - is fast becoming a top priority for most organizations. That's why NEC Computers is providing its customers with the most advanced security and management available today within its Versa line of laptops."

In other words, the stored data is kept secure on a Technology Momentus FDE.2 full disk encryption hard drive based on DriveTrust technology, controlled via Wave's EMBASSY software.
The DriveTrust security platform uses automatic data protection methods permitting users to add applications for enhanced security, or even authentication hardware, such as biometrics and smart cards.

Referring at the Momentus 5400 FDE.2 2.5-inch hard disk that features AES encryption sais that "Theft of intellectual property, customer information and other precious content stored on laptops can cost organizations dearly in legal remedies, customer retention and reputation management. Seagate's Momentus 5400 FDE.2 hard drive with the Wave Systems management software enables NEC to deliver notebooks with the strongest, easiest to deploy security available so NEC customers can steer clear of these costly setbacks."
