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. IronKey Secure Flash Drive (4GB)
