What is the difference between X-PHY® AI Embedded Cyber Secure SSD and a VPN?

X-PHY® AI Embedded Cyber Secure SSD and VPN (Virtual Private Network) are two different technologies with different functions. 

VPN is a technology that allows users to create a secure connection to a remote network over the internet. It creates an encrypted tunnel between the user's device and the network, ensuring that data transmitted between them remains confidential and secure. VPNs are commonly used to access corporate networks or to protect online privacy by hiding the user's IP address and online activities from prying eyes. 

X-PHY® AI Embedded Cyber Secure SSD, on the other hand, is a hardware-based storage solution designed to protect data stored locally on a device. It provides advanced security features such as encryption and protection against threats that attempt to penetrate the drive itself. X-PHY® AI Embedded Cyber Secure SSD is intended to provide physical protection for data stored on local devices, rather than protecting data transmitted over a network. 

In summary, while VPNs and X-PHY® AI Embedded Cyber Secure SSD both aim to provide security and protect data, they do so in different ways and for different purposes. VPNs protect data transmitted over a network, while X-PHY® AI Embedded Cyber Secure SSD protects data stored locally on a device.
