Security distributor Duo has partnered with US based data encryption vendor Data Locker, it was announced at the AusCERT conference in the Gold Coast today.

Data Locker is a secure portable hard drive with encryption for businesses carrying large amounts of data.

Kendra Ross director of Duo claimed the device "would stand a brute force attack".

Ross, which currently distributes secure USB device IronKey, told CRN that customers wanted a larger capacity option for storing data.

With that in mind, Ross said she discovered the device while at an expo in the US recently.

Data Locker comes in three versions, pro, enterprise and a standard edition.
