AES 256-bit hardware encryption in CBC mode automatically protects files — no software to install; uses the algorithm required by DoD for storing Top Secret data

Security Level 3 FIPS 140-2 validated tamper-resistant and tamper-evident design that includes:
- Hardened epoxy potting compound completely encasing the chips
- Secure key management – encryption keys are born on the device in the Cryptochip and bound to the device
- Hard-wired encryption key self-destruct defenses and electromagnetic shielding of the Cryptochip

Works on Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000, Mac OS X* and Linux

Rugged, hardened device — strong one-piece aluminum case is waterproof to military specifications

Active malware defenses protects data and corporate PCs and networks —
- AutoRun protection – secures against AutoRun worms
- Read-Only mode – enables the device to be unlocked to read files but prevents malware on untrusted hosts from infecting the drive
- Trusted Network restriction – prevents the drive from mounting on uncontrolled PCs
- Optional antivirus/anti-malware scanning cleans the device in the background

Remote management software — enterprise-class management capabilities, including remote policy enforcement, remote data destruct, secure device recovery and self-service password recovery

Trusted supply chain — research for the IronKey architecture funded by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security; all research and development performed in the USA. Boards built and drives assembled in secure facilities in the USA
