Elite EL Drive Dongle

Based on the Elite EL STD, this flash-embedded dongle is a high-speed USB 2.0 device with write speeds exceeeding 10Mb/s and read speeds over 20Mb/s. The capacity of the flash drive is 4Gb (16Gb and 32Gb are also available), and memory chips are of high quality MLC or SLC. The Elite EL Drive is ideal for distributing top-end applications embedded on the dongle device.

In The Kit

The kit contains an Elite EL Drive 4Gb USB dongle, the Senselock developer's manual, Senselock utility programs, and sample code in various programming languages.

Features

High-speed Storage

The embedded flash is high-speed USB 2.0 with the maximum write speeds over 10Mb/s and maximum read speeds over 20Mb/s.

High Capacity

The capacity of the flash drive chip is 4Gb (16Gb and 32Gb are also available), and to ensure data storage securit, only flash drive memory chips of high quality, MLC or SLC,are used.

Multiple Partioning Options

Partioning is customizable to enable a variety of partition schemes (Security Partition, Public Partition, Hidden Partition, and CD-ROM). Partition sizes can be configured, and developers can choose the most feasible scheme to match requirements of the software products.

Password Protection

Only a user with a valid password can access protected device zone. Even if the device is lost, data is still under protection. (Windows systems only)

No Interference

The dongle and the Flash drive work independently from each other, without interference. Users may need to develop encryption functions respectively according to their requirements.

Best Chip Security

The Elite EL Drive is designed and manufactured to explicit manufacturing norms (ISO/IEC 10373, ISO/IEC 15408), formulated in accordance with international criteria EAL (Evaluation Assurance Level), and ranked in the international 1-7 grading system for scientific evaluation of chip security. The EAL 5+ chip technology upon which the EL RTC is based, is a known upper security limit for current products; it doesn't get any higher.

Elite EL Drive is equipped with the most advanced PHILIPS 16-bit smart card chip reaching EAL 5+ in the global hi-tech sector. This furnishes EL with outstanding effectiveness in resistiance to major attacks such as Electronic Attack (SPA and DPA), Probe Attack (SiShell), Chip Dissection and Debug Port.

Code-Port Solution

Code Port is an evolutionary technique of transferring via secure communication, key pieces of executable code to the dongle. When a corresponding dongle is plugged, the protected application invokes specific API functions to run this executable code that has been locked away in the smart chip on the dongle. The code performs operations on data stored in the dongle and returns legal results, so as to complete the full verification operation for the protected application. As the executable code and data stored in the dongle do not have copies on the deployment host PC, malicious crackers cannot get algorithms or data by physical interception. In a word, EL provides the ultimate in reliability to shield software developers from financial loss caused by pirating activities.

Smart Technology

As distinguished from conventional chip technology, the Elite EL smart card chip contains a high performance cryptographic algorithm accelerator or coprocessor. In the chip, the COS (Card Operation System) and its applications are simply running to implement tasks. In other words, this smart card chip can be viewed as a highly integrated mini PC.

Automatic Self-locking Mechanism

Access to the chip is protected by PIN, and the maximum re-tries is pre-set by software developers. For instance, under a dictionary attack, once the number of re-tries exceed the pre-set value, the chip will trigger a self-locking mechanism and block all external running operations.

Global Unique Serial Number

A global unique serial number, which cannot be altered or rewritten, is assigned to the EL smart card chip. This puts an end to the piracy and enables the effective management of released chips. Furthermore, when using Senselock EL dongles, software developers are assigned a unique Client ID, which in effect addresses the critical issue of fraudulent dongle reproduction.

Built-in Timer

A dongle on-board timer is a useful component for software protection that applies to time-limited usage and anti-tracking. EL has a built-in timer lasting more than 10 hours, longer than most competing products on the market today.
