Ironkey 'Secure Flash Drive' Now Available in 8GB

  May 2nd, 2008

Filed under USB Flash Drives

Arguably the most secure flash drive in the world just got bigger. Ironkey is now available in 8GB in addition to 4GB ($149), 2GB ($109) and 1GB ($79). Features that appeals to government and corporate alike are tamper resistance that provides physical protection of the memory chip; cryptochip that boosts 128-bit AES hardware encryption; and self-destruct capability that destroys the data after 10 times of failed login attempts. For road warriors, Ironkey ships with a special edition of FireFox that takes advantage of what it calls the Secure Session Service (aka Tor) which enables surfing anonymously on the Internet. And there's also a password manager for storing login info so you don't have to fear keystroke logger when borrowing a net cafe's PC.

While all these security measurements are quite assuring, $299 for a 8GB drive might turn a lot of people away. We guess it's better to lose a costly thumbdrive than to risk falling victim to identity theft.
