What is it?
Meet the IronKey
The IronKey Personal Secure Flash Drive, designed to be the world’s
most secure USB ash drive, protects your data, passwords, and Internet
privacy with some of today’s most advanced security technologies. Even
if your IronKey is lost or stolen, your data remains protected and can
even be restored to a new IronKey from an encrypted backup. While the
underlying security technologies are complex, the IronKey is simple to use
and you only need to remember a password to unlock it.
Core Features
Hardware-Encrypted Flash Drive
Your IronKey can safely store 1, 2, 4 or 8 gigabytes of documents, applica-
tions, les and other data. The IronKey Cryptochip inside the IronKey
protects your data to the same level as highly classied government infor-
mation, and it cannot be disabled or accidently turned off.
Self-Destruct Sequence
If the IronKey Cryptochip detects any physical tampering by a thief or a
hacker, it will self-destruct. Similarly, after 10 consecutive invalid password
attempts
your IronKey will self-destruct using ash-trash technology.
Anti-Malware Autorun Protection
Your IronKey helps protect you from many of the latest malware threats
targeting USB ash drives. It will detect and prevent autorun execution of
unapproved programs, and it can be unlocked in a Read-Only Mode.
