What customers say about "Features"
IronKey S1000 4GB Encrypted Flash Drive
  • It's still military encryption but no more secure sessions. That's the deal breaker for me.
  • The gold standard for secure data transport. This is my fourth.
  • Secure. Ironkeys are great protecting against several USB attacks.
  • Works great, easy to set up, meets required security standards.
  • Great for storing sensitive documents. I also installed a portable password manager (little paranoid about online password managers).
IronKey D300 4GB Managed USB 3.0 Flash Drive
  • It's password encoded , that is easily set and works on my windows and works Mac.
  • If you need a really secure, flexible and reliable portable way to transfer files this is ideal.
  • Data transfer speed is very impressive.
  • This drive has very high security standards and does not leave any password history on the computer you are using the drive on.
  • I simply plugged it into my Windows 10 desktop, the installation program ran, asked for a password with hints on how to make a secure password.
