5-2-4-18 Advanced Security Features
The “Advanced Security Features” option consists of two vulnerability protection features:
• Disk Encryption
Disk Encryption enables an encryption to secure all Patient Data, Patient Images and corresponding
measurements. A Password, an USB storage device with unlock key or the recovery key is required to
unlock the device during the boot-up process.
NOTE: Any data stored on internal HDDs D:\ partition is encrypted by using BitLocker configured with AES 256-
bits key length.
• Whitelisting
Whitelisting prevents the Voluson P-series system from installing unwanted software. It monitors all
applications/services if they are known and accepted (White-listed). Any application/service that is not
known on the system creates an error message on the screen.
Without the Encryption Password or Recovery key it will not be possible to access the
Ultrasound device including emergency mode, scanning, patient information, images, or local
archive. GE has no access to this information or the ability to undo encryption in the event that
the Encryption Password and Recovery Key are lost. The security and safety of the Encryption
Password and Recovery Key is solely the user’s responsibility.
