The brand also keeps the point of data security in their mind, so it is natural that it always be provide with BDE (Bulk Data Encryption) using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) certified by National Institute of Standards and Technology. Data is encased with a key when it is scrambled on the disk and then descrambled when the key is retrieved. When the key is removed from the data it results in an unreadable junk.
