The product SecureDoc from Winmagic (winmagic.com) has been
certified by the US and Canadian governments under FIPS-140-1
Level 2. An earlier version of SecureDoc was certified by the
Canadian Security Establishment some time ago.

SecureDoc has numerous administrative options and a selection of
several "strong" encipherment algorithms; if you have a need for
"certified" full-disk encipherment, SecureDoc may fit your need.
