Description The Kingston Technology Company, Inc. IronKey D500S Series USB Flash Drive is a hardware cryptographic module designed for organizations that require a secure way to store and transfer portable data. The stored data is secured by hardware‐based 256‐bit AES on‐the‐fly encryption to guard sensitive information in case the drive is lost or stolen. Its strong, durable, metal casing provides robust physical protection. Its strong password rules and lock‐down control protects against brute force attacks.
