DataLocker, a global leader in encryption solutions, today announced a significant industry milestone. As of today, DataLocker is the only vendor worldwide to achieve FIPS 140-3 Level 3 validation across both portable hard drive and USB flash drive categories, while maintaining full Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliance for a fully trusted supply chain.

This achievement helps military, federal, and regulated enterprise customers who have previously been forced to choose between security certified to the older FIPS 140-2 standard and real-world usability. The validations were confirmed by the NIST Cryptographic Module Validation Program under Certificates #5091 and #5092.
