What Securedata does

SecureData is a privately-held group of US companies, operating through Secure Data, Inc. as the parent entity with Secure Data Recovery, LLC and Secure Data Software, LLC as wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, and was founded around 2005 with offices in Los Angeles, Cleveland, and Plano. The company manufactures and sells FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated hardware-encrypted storage devices, specifically the SecureUSB line of AES 256-bit encrypted flash drives (up to 512GB) and the SecureDrive line of USA-assembled encrypted external hard drives (up to 20TB) available in keypad, wireless app, and Duo (biometric) authentication configurations. Its core technology stack is OS-independent, military-grade hardware encryption with multi-factor authentication and a centralized Remote Management platform for fleet administration.

Beyond hardware, SecureData operates a certified data recovery services business handling hard drives, SSDs, RAID arrays, NAS/SAN, mobile devices, and digital forensics under independently audited SSAE 18 SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 processes, complemented by file repair and data recovery software (SecureRecovery, SecureRepair, SecureShredder, USBtoCloud, DriveSecurity, EncryptUSB, MyPasswords) and DLP endpoint tools (SecureGuard). Adjacent product lines include SecureCard RFID/NFC wallet protection and the SecureData Lock mobile app.

The business combines one-time hardware sales with one-time and freemium software licenses, recurring subscriptions (Remote Management at $49.95/month, Data Protection Plan at $14/month, USBtoCloud at $19/month), professional services engagements (data recovery, managed IT, backup planning), and accessories, distributed through a hybrid model: direct e-commerce via securedata.com, online retail (B&H Photo), a network of regional distributors (Synnex, Titan Data Solutions, Hart4Technology, Addis, A Level, DT Asia, PT.Mega Cyber Security), and direct enterprise sales. The company targets regulated verticals — government, healthcare, legal, financial services, military, and energy/nuclear — plus small businesses and consumer/home users, and states it is trusted by ten of the top Fortune 100 companies.
