Secure RAM Disk

Secure RAM Disk acts like a virtual drive on your system.

Similar to a standard hard drive it allows for the storage and deletion of directories and files. However, the data is not written onto a hard disk, but is stored as part of the RAM. Making it ideal for software engineers who are looking to have a temporary, customizable RAM drive to write on. Secure RAM Disk is perfect for data which needs to be accessed quickly, needs to be deleted after shutdown or needs to be protected in the event of a power failure or reboot.
