What is Alpha-USB DPS ?

ALPHA-USB DPS Overview

Alpha-USB DPS is a new type of security USB which has been specially developed for the complete data protection. Alpha-USB DPS users can record their con�dential contents inside Alpha-USB through Settec’s unique encryption process. In the recording process, the original contents would be transformed as Read-Only encrypted contents which would be perfectly protected from copying and ripping.

D. Disable Save As Option

Digital Signature uses unique identifier and cannot be copied to another disc using a burning tool.

Digital Signature is embedded in application files, which requires authentication before users can install or run the program.

Original data files are only accessible with the Digital Signature. (i.e., duplicated CD/DVD/USB do not have digital signature, thus the access to the contents is denied)

Encryption is applied to the individual files, which authenticates the disc inserted to PC. The encryption cannot be modified or decrypted using a third party application.

Alpha-USB DPS has advanced anti-crack embedded, which protects from various kinds of cracks, such as Memory Dump or Reverse Engineering.

The contents can be opened only after the authentication process is complete. Because the Digital Signature is only embedded in the original Alpha-USB DPS, the files cannot be opened without the original disc or USB. (Digital Signature cannot be copied even by creating a virtual image)
