Kingston has released a portable data storage solution that provides business-grade security with the FIPS 197 Certified & XTS-AES 256-bit hardware-encryption and additional protection against BadUSB and Brute Force password attacks.
► Hardware-encrypted for enhanced data security
► Multi-Password Option for Data access Recovery
The IronKey Vault Privacy 50 series of USB Type-C drives support multiple password options with Complex or Passphrase modes for enhanced recovery of access to the data. A ‘traditional’ complex mode allows for password from 6-16 characters, while the new passphrase mode allows for a numeric PIN, sentence, list of words, or even lyrics from 10 to 64 characters long. Admins can enable a User and a One-Time Recovery password or reset the User password to restore data access.
To aid in password entry, the “eye” symbol can be enabled to reveal the typed-in password, reducing typos leading to failed login attempts. Brute Force attack protection locks out User or One-Time Recovery passwords upon 10 invalid passwords entered in a row, and crypto-erases the drive if the Admin password is entered incorrectly 10 times in a row.
To protect against potential malware on untrusted systems, both Admin and User can set Read-Only mode to write-protect the drive; additionally, the built-in virtual keyboard shields passwords from keyloggers or screen loggers. FIPS 197 certified and TAA compliant, organisations can customise and configure VP50 series drives with a Product ID (PID) for integration with standard endpoint management software to meet corporate IT and cybersecurity requirements.
