4.4 KDM

The Defender 2000 and Elite200 flash devices come pre-loaded with firmware and KDM client software.

For all drives, the delivery to the customer is carried out by a commercial delivery service, such as UPS,

USPS, FedEx, etc.

The Defender Device contains two partitions: a CD-ROM partition and a secure, encrypted partition.

Kanguru Defender Manager (KDM) is the client program pre loaded on the Defender Device’s CD-

ROM partition. The user needs to login to KDM in order to access the secure, encrypted partition. KDM

comes pre-installed on your Defender Device. No installation on your PC is necessary.

4.4.1 Verifying the KDM Software Version

Users can open the version.ini file in CD-ROM partition to verify the software version on their drive.

The CC certified software versions are mentioned in this doc (see section 2.4 Software Requirements on

page 10) as well as in the device’s user manual.

Users are able to view the version of the KDM client application currently running on their drive by
right-clicking on the KDM icon

located in the task bar and then selecting About.

Important! Your Defender security device MUST be running a CC certified version of the Kanguru

Defender Manager software to be considered CC compliant (i.e. KDME200 v2.0.0.0 or KDM2000

v1.2.1.8). Your Defender device MAY have come pre-loaded with a non-CC certified version of KDM.

If your Defender device is not running a CC certified version of KDM, please see section 4.4.3 Updating

Your Defender Device on page 21 for information on updating your Defender’s KDM software version

to a CC certified version.
