Graid Technology Partners with KLC Group to Redefine High-Speed RAID and Data-at-Rest Security

As data demands surge in today’s hyper-competitive landscape, organizations are constantly seeking solutions that balance security with performance.

A new strategic partnership between Graid Technology Inc., creators of SupremeRAID, and KLC Group LLC, innovators behind CipherDriveOne Plus, is set to redefine this balance with a solution for high-speed storage and NSA CSfC-certified Data-at-Rest (DAR) Security.

At the core of this collaboration is a novel approach to data security. Combining the NSA Commercial Solutions for Classified (CSfC) Data-at-Rest (DAR) Security guidelines, the joint solution integrates encryption, access controls, and authentication to deliver military-grade data protection. This breakthrough is designed to meet the critical needs of government contractors and organizations that require NSA CSfC-certified protection alongside high-performance RAID storage.

While CipherDriveOne Plus provides hardware-based full-disk encryption, traditional RAID solutions have presented challenges, including drive-locking mechanisms that limit the performance of CSfC-compliant NVMe SSDs or spinning disks. SupremeRAID offers an alternative. As a GPU-accelerated software RAID, SupremeRAID eliminates the bottlenecks and limitations of hardware RAID, allowing CSfC-compliant systems like CipherDriveOne Plus to operate without compromising authentication processes or drive performance. This results in superior data protection and NVMe SSD operation.

CipherDriveOne Plus, a hardware full disk encryption – Authorization Acquisition (AA) solution, is designed to meet the US Government’s strict Data-at-Rest (DAR) standards. It provides key management, encryption, and authentication over OPAL 2.0 self-encrypting SSDs or HDDs, ensuring immediate data protection that is OS-agnostic and governed by FIPS-140-2 level key encryption with options for single, 2-factor, or multi-factor authentication.

“We are thrilled to embark on this new journey with our esteemed partner, where innovation meets collaboration. Together, we have achieved remarkable milestones and won several government customers in a short time. There is no other solution capable of our joint technology in the market today,” said Kurt Lennartsson, CEO, KLC Group.

“By joining forces with KLC Group, we are redefining the performance and security benchmarks in high-performance computing, AI, and diverse industries reliant on data-intensive operations,” stated Leander Yu, president and CEO, Graid. “The collaboration between SupremeRAID and CipherDriveOne Plus not only enhances performance but also ensures comprehensive data protection, scalability, and flexibility.”
