Each hardware algorithm of a Guardant dongle is defined in its descriptor. Descriptors are kept in the dongle memory in protected items of special type and protected against reading and modifications. A part of the descriptor defines the properties of the algorithm. Its second part represents a hardware algorithm determinant. It plays a significant part in executing a specific algorithm while being a secret conversion key.

Activation/deactivation of hardware algorithms
...
If these properties are defined in the algorithm’s determinant, you will have an opportunity to activate or deactivate the algorithm when required using a special function. You can set passwords for activation/deactivation to be stored in the algorithm descriptor. Activation and deactivation enables efficient control over a specific set of algorithm descriptors engaged in the operation of protection system.
