Cigent Technology, Inc., a specialist in data security, has announced the company's new lineup of Cigent Secure SSD+ drives. Unlike the company's previous Secure SSD series, the Cigent Secure SSD+ debuts with a unique AI microprocessor that uses machine learning (ML) to stop ransomware attacks and prevent perpetrators from stealing or encrypting the data on the drive.
The Cigent Secure SSD+ focuses on a prevention-first approach, to impede ransomware attacks before they can do any damage. This means allocating the attack prevention inside the storage itself. The integrated AI microprocessor monitors the SSD's activity with ML algorithms to fight ransomware attacks. In addition, consumers can tweak the detection sensitivity to their needs to avoid false positives.
