DexDataLock™ is a cost effective and advanced, easy-to-use encryption solution. With this technology, intellectual property and other sensitive information can be secured on any computer running Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. This revolutionary product, developed by DexIT, protects individuals and businesses from unknowingly divulging sensitive or commercially secret information.

When you protect your documents with DexDataLock™ your documents are secured by a hardware component with unsurpassed security. DexDataLock™ encrypts your documents, incorporates anti-debugging features and ensures that no one can use or distribute your documents without your permission.

DexDataLock Personal™
This product has been developed with the forward thinking individual in mind. Someone who has realized the importance of keeping data protected and the possible consequences of data (personal or commercial) being accessed by unauthorized users.

The personal edition consists of:
1 USB HASP key
The encrypt/decrypt software,
License fee - optional (includes technical support via e-mail and upgrades)

DexDataLock Professional™
The professional edition offers the same benefits as the personal edition, but with the added feature of being able to create up to 5 keys with each containing 5 different user groups. This makes the transfer of sensitive information or data possible. Files, data and information can now be encrypted and transferred via disc, network, memory stick etc, but with the knowledge that only the intended recipient will be able to decrypt the information by using their keys with the same user groups as per the sender.

The professional edition consists of:
2 USB HASP keys (possibility to purchase and create up to 5 keys)
The encrypt/decrypt software
Administrator software to be able to create up to 5 keys with 5 user groups per key'
License fee (includes technical support via e-mail and upgrades)

DexDataLock Enterprise™
This edition is aimed at large international corporate companies. Companies that communicate sensitive information to large numbers of employees and board members. The concept is the same as with the professional edition, except that you do not have a limitation on the number of keys you can create and up to 24 different user groups per key. The possibility also exists for customizing the this edition to include for example biometric integration.

The enterprise edition consists of:
5 USB HASP keys (possibility to create unlimited amounts of keys)
The encrypt/decrypt software o Administrator software to be able to create up to 5 keys with 5 user groups per key'
License fee (includes technical support via telephone and upgrades)
Custom configuration.

DexDataLock™ is a cross-platform key supporting Windows 98, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

DexDataLock™ protects documents against illegal use, by allowing access of the protected document only when the key is connected to the computer. DexDataLock™ keys contain a highly secure, impenetrable encryption engine. During runtime, the protected software sends encrypted strings to DexDataLock™ that decrypts the strings and produces a response that cannot be imitated. If the response from DexDataLock™ is correct the document will decrypt and open with the appropriate program. If DexDataLock™ isn't connected or its response is incorrect, the document will not decrypt and will not run.

You have to make the connection between your software and the DexDataLock™ key. You can use the DexDataLock™ Encrypt / Decrypt software to protect your documents by encrypting the files by wrapping them with an impenetrable shell that checks for the key. This is obtained by using the physical key, a personal password and user group password. This method provides unmatched security. We recommend using both passwords for maximum protection.

DexDataLock™ uses the Rijndael algorithm, which was chosen in October 2000 by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Rijndael, a public symmetric algorithm, replaces the DES algorithm, which was the standard until then.

In each DexDataLock™ key the memory data is encrypted uniquely. During the protected application's runtime the DexDataLock™ system decrypts the data when the application accesses the memory. This ensures that the memory cannot be read by hardware specialists and keys cannot be transferred from one DexDataLock®™ key to another.

Yes. You can protect as many documents as you like with a single DexDataLock™ key.

No. The DexDataLock™ cannot be reset once it has been configured and there is no way to reset or change the password if it has been forgotten. In situations like this we can offer a replacement key at a reduced cost in exchange for the old one. The new key will be un-configured and will need to be setup before use. It will also not contain any of the encryption keys of the old device so any encryption keys must be transferred from the backup DexDataLock™ or re-requested.

There are some limitations to network support in the current version of DexDataLock™. Please consult the read me file for the current limitations of network support and what recommendations are made for encryption of network files.
