About

Build virtualization solutions on top of a lightweight hypervisor, without third-party kernel extensions. Hypervisor provides C APIs so you can interact with virtualization technologies in user space, without writing kernel extensions (KEXTs). As a result, the apps you create using this framework are suitable for distribution on the Mac App Store. Use this framework to create and control hardware-facilitated virtual machines and virtual processors (VMs and vCPUs) from your entitled, sandboxed, user-space process. Hypervisor abstracts virtual machines as processes, and virtual processors as threads. The Hypervisor framework requires hardware support to virtualize hardware resources. On Apple silicon, that includes the Virtualization Extensions. On Intel-based Mac computers, the framework supports machines with an Intel VT-x feature set that includes Extended Page Tables (EPT) and Unrestricted Mode.

About

Redkey USB makes secure data erasure simple and affordable. Start a compatible computer from the reusable USB, select the disks to erase and follow the on-screen guidance before selling, donating, recycling or reusing the equipment. Choose Home for everyday computer erasure, Professional when you need PDF reports documenting the disk, method and result, or Ultimate to also erase supported iPhones, iPads and Android devices and automate repeated jobs with scripts. Pay once and reuse your Redkey on compatible devices, with no subscription or per-erasure fees and lifetime software updates. Each key handles one computer at a time and up to 16 connected disks. Redkey supports many Intel/AMD PCs, Intel-based Macs, HDDs, SATA SSDs and NVMe SSDs. Apple silicon and other ARM computers are unsupported. Windows and internet access are required for activation and updates. Check redkeyusb.com for full compatibility details.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I use all Apple products and it has been such a benefit to be able to operate by userspace and just depend on my device.

Cons

  • Products are more expensive and then can also sometimes crash.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It should be an easy to use product.... should be, but it is easy to plug in download activate after that nothing but headaches and time wasted
  • Redkey USB is incredibly easy to use, even for someone who's not super tech-savvy. The interface is straightforward, and it walks you through the steps to wipe your data securely. I love that it meets high standards like NIST 800-88, which gives me peace of mind knowing my data is really gone. The data wipe certificates are a nice touch, especially if you need proof for work or personal records.

Cons

  • It's garbage it shows as up to date and activated on my computer but they keep telling me first it wasn't activated... it was 2nd not up to date reformat try again. I don't have a year to fix their garbage asked for a refund multiple times keep getting the run around
  • The only downside is that you can only wipe one device at a time with each key. This can be a bit time-consuming if you have multiple devices to clean. But I've heard they're working on a new version that will let you wipe several devices at once, so that should help.
