The IronKey Password Manager, if enabled, connects to the onboard Firefox browser, or to
Internet Explorer (versions 6 or 7) on your computer, automatically lling in your saved pass-
words so you can log directly into
your online accounts. The IronKey
Password Manager can securely
store your sensitive online identity
information, including usernames,
passwords, credit card numbers
and addresses. It can even gener-
ate strong passwords for you, so
that you can really lock down your
online accounts. Not having to
type out your passwords provides
added protection from keyloggers
and other crimeware.
IronKey’s Password Manager also allows you to back up your encrypted Password Manger data
to your Online Security Vault, synchronize password data between IronKeys, or, if your IronKey
is ever lost or stolen, securely restore all your passwords to a new IronKey. Only you can access
and decrypt your passwords.
The IronKey Password Manager does not store your passwords in a le on the le system of
the ash drive, so malware will not be able to simple copy off your password database.
Step Description
1 Adding Portable Bookmarks To make a bookmark work in both the onboard
Firefox and the local PC’s Internet Explorer, simply
click the ‘Add Website” button on the IronKey Toolbar.
This will add it to your Portable Bookmarks list, which
you can access by clicking “Portable Bookmarks”.
2 Adding online accounts The IronKey Password Manager uses a self-learning
approach to capturing your logins to your online ac-
counts. To store a login, simply log into a site as you
normally would. The IronKey Password Manager will
prompt you to ask if you want to store this password
securely on your IronKey.
The next time you return to that website, you will be
asked if you want to log in with that username, or, if
you added it to your Portable Bookmark list when you
created the login, you can select the website from your
Portable Bookmarks in the IronKey Toolbar and the
IronKey Password Manager will automatically log you
into that website.
