All data stored in the PowerBroker Password Safe appliance is double encrypted in storage. First, the entire PowerBroker Password Safe hard disk is encrypted using AES-256 encryption. The encryption is unlocked only by booting from the disk eliminating the potential to remount the disk in another host and read its data. Passwords and files stored on PowerBroker Password Safe appliance are encrypted using AES-256 and signed with X.509v3 certificates to verify their authenticity. The commercially supported encryption products used are FIPS 140-2 validated.
