In certain information handling system environments, physical devices connected to a client are redirected to a server or other information handling system. Requests to a virtualized hardware secure device may not be accessible due to the latency of the network. A server may request that a locking application of a CDROM driver (or interface) unlock a secured disk interface/logical unit of a redirected hardware secure device. The locking application validates a user entered password. Once unlocked the secured disk interface/logical unit is accessible via an associated file system stack at the server.
