LG adds SecurDisc to more drives Nero has announced the global availability of more SecurDisc-enabled drives from LG Electronics, Inc. The addition of SecurDisc technology to the new LG GSA-E60N/L LG 20x External DVD Rewriter and the LG GSA-E50N/L Slim Portable provides secure data protection and content access control for data recorded on regular CD and DVD formats.
"With international headlines focused on the dangers of information loss, data security and document protection have become top of mind for consumers worldwide," said Charly Lippoth, Chief Technology Officer, Nero AG. "Information owners are increasingly aware of the need for strong access controls, and Nero continues to set the standard for what end-users will come to expect in ensuring the security of their files. The global availability of LG SecurDisc-enabled drives speaks to the market demand for this functionality."



SecurDisc offers solutions to secure your content from prying eyes offering encryption with password protection, digital signature, and higher data reliability through data storage redundancy and defect management, as well as copy protection for PDF files and a data integrity checker.

"Our decision to introduce SecurDisc-enabled drives was based on the growing need to protect data recorded on CD or DVD format from invasion, theft, or potential damage," said Y.K Cho, Vice President of IT Marketing Team, LG Electronics, Inc. "Nero identified a vital need for document protection in the marketplace and we hope to continue to raise awareness of the importance of data security through the addition of SecurDisc technology to our new drives."
