Regarding reports of the potential to fraudulently use digital signing technology allegedly attributed to Western Digital in consumer products, we can confirm that we have control over our digital certificate infrastructure. In the event we need to take precautionary measures to protect customers, we are equipped to revoke certificates as needed. We'd like to remind consumers to always use caution when downloading applications from non-reputable sources on the Internet.

I have a western digital blue disk, which is one of the SMR variations. I've heard that they support TRIM command. The disk is accidentally quick formatted on Windows 10, and now seems to be all zero. But, I'm wondering, for a disk it would take illogical amount of effort to actually set all sectors (1TB) to zero. I don't really understood how TRIM applies to such disks, and suppose to see something like a list of safely deletable sectors or something like that in the disk's firmware.
@jdu_sg Thanks for the informative post. It's easy to forget how many ways our digital devices can be accessible via the Internet. I certainly would not expect average users to be aware of the myriad ways they can be hacked.

Data storage giant, Western Digital, was attacked earlier this year and confirmed that hackers stole 10 terabytes of data, including sensitive customer information. Apart from the inconvenience caused to its My Cloud Home & Sandisk ibi customers amongst others, the incident made for terrifying news as hackers claimed to be able to impersonate Western Digital through digitally signed files.
Smartphones have become an indispensable part of everyday life, and serve as a digital identity of sorts for the owner. The biometric authentication that allows access to the phone has been taken advantage of as an added security measure in various other scenarios (two-factor authentication). Applications that authenticate based solely on the ability to unlock the phone exist too. Some portable storage device vendors have adopted this 'app scheme' as an alternative to the 'intrusive' measures outlined in the previous paragraph for unlocking encrypted drives. Examples include the SecureDrive BT series of hardware-encrypted external portable HDDs and SSDs using the DataLock BT app and iStorage's upcoming datAshur BT series of USB flash drives. Today, Western Digital is introducing their own version of BLE-based authentication and unlocking of a portable storage device under the ArmorLock moniker. The first product based on this technology is also being launched today - the G-Technology ArmorLock-encrypted NVMe SSD.
