The S15AB joins an elite group of laptops available for use in defence applications where Top Secret and sensitive information is stored and processed.
APC Technology Group (part of Certify Holdings), a leading UK supplier of defence-grade computing solutions and specialist systems, is pleased to announce that the DURABOOK S15AB is now available with Viasat’s Eclypt Core Solid State Drives.
Overseeing a collaboration between DURABOOK, a specialist manufacturer of rugged laptops and tablets, and Viasat U.K Ltd, a subsidiary of a global communications company, Viasat Inc.), APC Technology Group saw the S15AB rugged laptop undergo testing before completing compatibility screening, making it one of only three laptops available with the class leading encrypted drives.
Viasat’s Eclypt Core range of SATA 2.5” solid state self-encrypting hard drives are evaluated for use in the UK to secure Top Secret information and all security levels below. They are also evaluated for use by NATO and other European countries.
During high-risk operations, this self-encrypting hard drive protects your valuable data on both manned and unmanned mobile platforms with accredited hardware-based security.

Over the past 18 months, the UK has seen significant growth in cyber criminality. High-profile ransomware campaigns and data breaches have resulted in leaked personal data on an unprecedented scale, leaving individuals and organisations vulnerable to fraud and putting lives at risk when critical infrastructure organisations have been targeted.
