Apricorn hardens ASK3 encrypted USB drive for extreme conditions Apricorn has announced enhancements to its Aegis Secure Key 3.0 (ASK3), delivering faster performance and new environmental protection capabilities designed to secure the device and its data in the most demanding physical circumstances. The ASK3 was updated to meet and exceed the latest NIST Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) for FIPS 140-3 Level 3 validation, for which it has formally been submitted. This positions the ASK3 for use by government, defence contractors, and organisations across healthcare, finance, legal digital forensics, and other regulated industries. “With our submission of the ASK3 for FIPS 140-3 Level 3 validation, we’re reinforcing a design that was built from the start to meet and exceed these requirements,” said Jeanclaude Toma, CEO at Apricorn. “We engineer all of our products to deliver consistent, real-world security under the conditions our customers actually face. In the near term we will see FIPS 140-3 validation across our diverse product lines, positioning Apricorn as the only AS9100 certified provider of FIPS-based security offerings.” The latest generation of ASK3 builds on Apricorn’s reputation for rugged, secure data storage with a mini solid-state drive (SSD) architecture within a USB flash key form factor. This design enables higher capacities of up to 2TB, exceeding the limits of traditional flash-based USB drives by nearly 4X, while maintaining the portability and ease of use that customers need. With a new bridge controller chip and its SSD design, Apricorn has improved the product’s performance. The ASK3 now delivers speed improvements of up to 31% (up to 210 MB/s) and speed increases of up to 16% (reaching 220 MB/s). These gains support faster data transfers for organisations moving large volumes of sensitive data across endpoints, remote environments and air-gapped systems. Encrypted storage device designed to survive harsh conditions A key advancement in the ASK3 is its environmental protection design, which goes beyond standard testing requirements. As part of the current FIPS 140-3 guideline requirements, removable storage devices must undergo environmental failure testing to ensure they can operate reliably within defined thresholds, including temperature ranges between 0°C and 70°C and amperage spikes of up to 10 percent. While these tests validate resilience, extreme conditions can still lead to device failure and data inaccessibility. To address this, Apricorn has implemented an environmental protection circuit within the ASK3 that actively prevents damage by shutting the device down when conditions fall outside safe operating ranges. Once conditions normalise, the device can be brought back online, preserving both the hardware and the data it protects. This proactive approach reflects a broader design philosophy focused not just on meeting compliance standards, but on preventing failure scenarios altogether. Apricorn’s ASK3 was engineered to meet and, in key areas, exceed FIPS 140-3 Level 3 requirements prior to submission. This includes enhancements aligned with evolving guidance around environmental resilience, the highest levels of entropy and physical security. Rather than designing to the minimum threshold, Apricorn focused on real-world operating conditions, ensuring the device not only satisfies validation criteria, but performs reliably in the environments where sensitive data is actually handled. The ASK3 also maintains Apricorn’s hallmark physical and logical security features, including hardware-based encryption, tamper-resistant construction and software-free authentication. Its hardened design is built for use in harsh environments where data must remain secure regardless of physical or operational stress.

An agentic AI deployment will cause a publicly disclosed data breach next year, leading to employee dismissals, Forrester has predicted. Senior analyst Paddy Harrington noted that generative AI (GenAI) has already been responsible for several breaches since it burst onto the scene three years ago. “As companies begin building agentic AI workflows, these issues will only become more prevalent,” he added in a blog post yesterday. “Without the right guardrails, systems of autonomous AI agents may sacrifice accuracy for speed of delivery, especially when interacting directly with customers.” Although staff may lose their jobs as a result of an agentic AI-related breach, this would be unfair given that such events are due to “a cascade of failures,” rather than the fault of individuals, Harrington continued. “To prevent these failures, and scapegoating, security organizations must enable the business to develop agentic applications with minimum viable security,” he added. “Follow the AEGIS framework, securing intent, ensuring appropriate identity and access management controls to track agent activity, and implementing data security controls to track data provenance.” Forrester’s Agentic AI Enterprise Guardrails for Information Security (AEGIS) framework focuses on six core elements Governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) Identity and access management (IAM) Data security and privacy Application security Threat management Zero Trust architecture Forrester isn’t the only analyst house to raise the alarm over possible agentic AI security risks. Back in March, Gartner predicted that within two years, AI agents will accelerate the time it takes threat actors to hijack exposed accounts by 50%. Agentic AI Already Helping Threat Actors Although Forrester’s prediction is based on a scenario where enterprise AI agents accidentally or deliberately breach data, the technology is already being used maliciously, according to Check Point. The security vendor claimed last month that the agentic AI-powered Hexstrike-AI red team tool is being abused by threat actors to accelerate reconnaissance, exploit crafting and payload delivery. It warned that a task which could have taken days or weeks can now be accomplished in under 10 minutes. Among Forrester’s other cybersecurity predictions for 2026 are: Quantum security spending will exceed 5% of overall cybersecurity budgets, as enterprises seek to plan their post-quantum migration, replace outdated cryptographic libraries and components, and invest in discovery and inventory tools At least five governments will nationalize or place restrictions on critical telecoms infrastructure, following the Salt Typhoon attacks The EU will launch its own known exploited vulnerability (KEV) database, as CISA funding wanes, based on the EU Vulnerability Database (EUVD). This will likely require CISOs to adjust their vulnerability management strategy

Product showcase: Apricorn Aegis NVX, a high-security, portable SSD The Apricorn Aegis NVX is a hardware-based 256-Bit AES XTS external SSD drive with integrated USB-C cable. Its storage capacities range from 500GB to 2TB. The device is OS free and cross-platform compatible. Design and build The drive comes with a compact carry case, a USB-C to USB-A adapter, and a quick start guide. It is enclosed in aircraft-grade aluminum alloy and sealed with tamper-resistant, tamper-evident uni-directional breakaway security fasteners that are driven and cemented in place with hardened epoxy. The disk feels solid and well-made, and it is smaller and lighter than my iPhone 14 Pro Max. The polymer-coated membrane-style keypad is big enough for comfortable use and wear-resistant to prevent the most used buttons from showing signs of wear. PIN setup requirements The Aegis NVX does not come with a preset PIN. Since I use a Mac, I had to reformat the drive before I could use it. Before you can start using it, you need to create an Admin PIN that is 7 to 16 digits long. The PIN cannot consist solely of identical or sequential numbers (for example, 123456789, 987654321, or 11111111). Admin mode manages the device’s universal programmable settings and is accessible only with the Admin PIN. User mode is designed for general external drive functions such as reading, writing, unlocking, locking, and other specific operations. It can be accessed using either a User PIN or the Admin PIN, and you can register up to four User PINs. Advanced security features The Aegis NVX includes several security features, such as: One-time-use recovery PINs: The Admin can create up to four one-time-use recovery PINs. These recovery PINs let a User access data on the Aegis NVX if they forget their PIN. After a recovery PIN is used, it becomes invalid and can’t be used again. Self-destruct PIN: This feature helps protect data when used in public. Read-Only mode is essential for forensic use, keeping data unchanged. Only the Admin can enable or disable Read-Only mode for all users. Read-only mode: This feature helps protect data when used in public. Read-only mode is essential for forensic use, keeping data unchanged. Only the Admin can enable or disable Read-Only mode for all users.
