Comsol FIPS flashIT Secure USB Flash Drive with Hardware Encryption - 16GB
Product Brief
The Comsol FIPS flashIT Secure USB flash drive is a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated USB flash drive designed for those looking for ultra secure portable storage. Increasing emphasis on employee mobility requires the use of convenient devices that provide a secure computing environment. With the confidence of Military Grade AES 256-Bit hardware based encryption in CBC-mode, companies can now store and transport sensitive information without the risk of it falling into the wrong hands if the drive is lost or stolen.
FIPS certification according to the standards of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) together with independent, accredited outside testing, guarantees top-of-the-line protection that is vital to secure highly sensitive data.
Unlike software based encryption, the hardware encryption can never be disabled or turned off either accidentally, on purpose or by malware. This Always On encryption guarantees 100% of your data is protected 100% of the time. The flashIT Secure drive stores its encryption keys in its own hardware and not on the host PC's hard disk or RAM, safeguarding against brute force password guessing. After five unsuccessful login attempts the drive will lock down, reformat and all data will be irrecoverably erased.
Every year, 20 million unprotected USB drives go missing. If the data stored on those drives ends up in the wrong hands, you can lose public trust, put citizens at risk and suddenly find yourself in the middle of a PR scandal. Secure USB flash drives are an essential pillar of a comprehensive data loss prevention (DLP) strategy. The security must be implemented in the hardware in order to combat the evolving threat landscape. With your data stored on a hardware encrypted Comsol flashIT Secure FIPS certified USB flash drive, it is always protected from unauthorized access.
