CDP allows to set encryption on the Disk Safe. Follow the instructions below to manage the encryption.
{info:title=Reference: AES-256 Encryption}Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a algorithm for the encryption of electronic data. AES-256 encryption/decryption, Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) certified, protects data from unauthorized use. The design and strength of all key lengths of the 256-bit-key AES is sufficient to protect classified information up to the top secret level. {info}
{info:title=Note}Once you have configured the encryption during Disk Safe creating, you cannot turn it on/off. For enabled encryption the pass phrase can be changed.
