Managed Secure Mobile Storage, Strong Authentication and Portable Virtual Desktops for the EnterpriseUSB flash drives–with their small form factors, large storage capacities, and high transfer rates–have revolutionised mobile data storage. An increasingly mobile workforce relies on these devices to transport files when they travel to customer sites, share data with partners and co-workers, use more than one computer, and work from home. USB flash drives also make it easy for workers who are traveling to back up business files. The challenge for enterprise IT and security professionals becomes one of balancing the enormous productivity benefits of flash drives with the threats they pose to the organisation. Easily lost or stolen, flash drives pose a risk of data loss and leakage, which carries with it the potential costs and liabilities of a data breach. In addition to allowing data to leave the organisation, flash drives can also allow malicious code to enter, infecting corporate PCs and networks with dangerous malware and crimeware programs. |

Always-On Military-Grade Hardware Encryption and Active Anti-Malware
IronKey, through research initially supported by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, has focused on solving these critical challenges. The result is the world's most secure USB flash. This intelligent mobile storage device combines an advanced Cryptochip (which protects data with AES 256-bit military grade encryption in hardware) with an array of physical and electromagnetic defences that prevent intruders from accessing the chips or encryption keys. Active malware defences further protect IronKey drives–and computers on which they are used–from becoming infected with viruses and worms.
A Platform for Strong Two-Factor Authentication and Portable Virtual Desktops
Beyond the benefits of security and manageability, IronKey drives also comprise secure platforms for deploying portable virtual desktops. Additionally, organisations can use the onboard digital certificate or solutions from RSA and other third parties to consolidate encrypted mobile storage and strong two-factor authentication in a single device.
