Other sitesThe Drake Herald is a small, armored ship designed to safely get information from Point A to Point B. Featuring a powerful central engine (for high-speed transit and generating the power needed for effective data encryption/containment), advanced encryption software and an armored computer core, the Herald is unique among personal spacecraft in that it is designed to be easily 'cleaned' when in danger of capture.[1][2] Notably, data running and hacking are not yet implemented, so the ship does not yet have all intended functionality.
Features
- Armored Computer Core: The computer core will run on a dedicated server that can only be accessed from the secure control terminal inside the ship. This will eliminate the threat of remote hacking.[2]
- Broadcast Array: The SATA-M6A1 high power broadcast array will allow long range data transmission for both communication and emergency purposes.[2]
- Data Storage Pods: All data placed inside the upcoming data storage pod will undergo a proprietary encryption algorithm. With quick loading access ports, the data storage pods will be detached from the ship for delivery or emergency.[2]
- EMP Protection: The Herald will be equipped with advanced rated EMP shielding and backup power systems to avoid total power loss in an EMP blast.[2]
