VANCOUVER, WA - June 30, 2009 - CRU-DataPort™ recently received accolades for its global leadership in data security and data mobility solutions by ranking 15th in The Portland Business Journal’s 2009 list of 'Fastest Growing Private 100 Companies.' The notably high ranking for CRU is due to a 162% growth in revenue over a three-year period. Since 1986, DataPort® removable drive enclosures have been the de facto standard for physical data security and safe data portability in government, education and business markets. The Portland Business Journal’s sold out annual event was held on June 18, 2009 at the Portland Art Museum.
"We are honored to receive this award for the second consecutive year," said Randal Barber, CEO of CRU-DataPort. "We consistently respond to market needs and strive to deliver cutting edge products to our customers. Additional components contributing to CRU growth are the sharp internal team and the mutually beneficial relationships we've forged with our distributors and value added resellers." It is a true testament to CRU to sustain growth in these challenging economic times.
In June 2009, CRU-DataPort announced new digital forensics, data security and data storage products at the Techno Security conference in Myrtle Beach, SC including hardware based encryption, a portable drive imager and a write-blocked forensic tool, the USB WriteBlocker™. WiebeTech, a brand of CRU-DataPort, created the new USB WriteBlocker after heeding many requests from digital forensic investigators and law enforcement agencies for an easy to use, economical write-blocked device to support USB. The USB WriteBlocker is the smallest forensic solution on the market to limit access on any USB Mass Storage device to read-only. It operates via USB bus power, supports VID/PID discovery and provides data transfer rates 15-25% faster than competing products.
Hardware-based encryption makes the new CRU DataPort™ 10 Secure an ideal solution for protecting sensitive data on a HDD. This rugged enclosure enables the drive to be removed, or "Hot-Swapped," for data backup, transporting and archiving; while a government approved AES 128 high-speed encryption processor secures the contents of the entire drive without affecting computer performance.
