An early hard disk monitoring technology was introduced by IBM in 1992 in its IBM 9337 Disk Arrays for AS/400 servers using IBM 0662 SCSI-2 disk drives. [11] Later it was named Predictive Failure Analysis (PFA) technology. It was measuring several key device health parameters and evaluating them within the drive firmware.
LiveCDs are available for download, allowing the user to use GNOME Disks without any changes to the computer. smartmontools [7] Windows, Unix-like (Linux, macOS, BSD, etc.) GNU GPL v2 CLI and GUI (via GSmartControl and HDD Guardian) All for Linux, some for other Unix-like See list of supported devices; [8] SAT driver required on macOS only [9]
The software is designed to find, test, diagnose and repair hard disk drives, reveal problems, display health and avoid failures by using S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) function of hard disk drives. [34] [35] [36] The detected information can be saved to file in formats such as HTML, text, or XML. [37] [38] [39]
CrystalDiskInfo is an MIT-licensed S.M.A.R.T. utility for reading and monitoring disk drive status. Like CrystalDiskMark, this tool is designed with an emphasis around solid state devices, supporting NVMe connections in addition to the usual PATA and SATA .
Power-on hours (POH) is the length of time, usually in hours, [1] that electrical power is applied to a device.. A part of the S.M.A.R.T. attributes (originally known as IntelliSafe, before its introduction to the public domain on 12 May 1995, by the computer hardware and software company Compaq), [2]
In cryptography, PKCS #11 is a Public-Key Cryptography Standards that defines a C programming interface to create and manipulate cryptographic tokens that may contain secret cryptographic keys. It is often used to communicate with a Hardware Security Module or smart cards .
In cryptography, the OpenPGP card [1] is an ISO/IEC 7816-4, -8 compatible smart card [2] that is integrated with many OpenPGP functions. Using this smart card, various cryptographic tasks (encryption, decryption, digital signing/verification, authentication etc.) can be performed. It allows secure storage of secret key material; all versions of ...
Newer NSA systems allow "over the air rekeying" (OTAR), but a master key often must still be loaded using a fill device. NSA uses two serial protocols for key fill, DS-101 and DS-102 . Both employ the same U-229 6-pin connector type used for U.S. military audio handsets , with the DS-101 being the newer of the two serial fill protocols.
