AES-256 / OPAL 2.0

Technical standards for data security from the logger to the data center.

AES-256 refers to a widely used hardware encryption algorithm for data at rest, while TCG Opal 2.0 is a standard for managing self-encrypting drives (SEDs). In data loggers and removable media, this combination is used to protect recorded data efficiently without placing a heavy load on the host CPU.
