Sandisk Offers Encrypted Usb Drive

Utilizing an encrypted USB drive has become a concern of many organizations that use confidential information on a daily basis. SanDisk Enterprise products are becoming the standard choice for many of these organizations. An encrypted USB drive offers the highest level of security possible when responsibly using sensitive information. The liability for an organization that is responsible for the exposure of confidential information is great and so an encrypted USB drive is the sensible choice. Drives programmed with encryption technology are providing highest levels of security for confidential data.

Features of an Encrypted USB Drive

An encrypted USB drive provides the strongest security measures available. If the flash drive is lost the drive is terminated.  If the drive is stolen and access is attempted the drive is locked down after a number of failed passwords attempts. The fact that an encrypted USB drive is independent of their operating systems the drive cannot be used as a host to upload a virus. Encrypted keys for drives are hardware based and are never stored in the operating system, reducing the possibility of a successful hacker obtaining passwords to gain access. An encrypted USB drive with data encryption is proving to be the most secure method for protecting data.

SanDisk Enterprise produces an encrypted USB drive that is functional and features an ultra-fast transfer rate of 20MB for writing and 24MB for reading. Mandatory access and control of all transferred files is implemented by partitioning files for added security. Through a central management and control software program an encrypted USB drive can be monitored, data can be backed up or the drive instantly terminated from a central server should the unit is lost or stolen. Corporate, government and military organizations prefer an encrypted USB drive for
their personnel because they provide a format that is both secure and functional.

Encrypted USB Drive Enhances Security

An encrypted USB drive with a strong authentication process and encryption keys provides the very best security available for protecting data. SanDisk Enterprise’s secure USB Cruzer model features the 256-bit AES algorithm. This algorithm is the best encryption available today for either hardware or software encrypted applications. If your company is using flash drives without encryption it is time to employ an encrypted USB drive for use by your personnel. Simply put an encrypted USB drive can help to keep your data safe and at the same time provide a level of functionality for your personnel who depend on smooth access to data.

An encrypted USB drive will not only prevent unauthorized users from gaining access to the data stored on the drive but it will prevent access to your operating system also. If an attack is made on your operating system and the drive is used to play host to a virus, anti-virus software will avert the attack to your system. An encrypted USB drive partitions files in the drive making them more secure against compromise as well. Even if a hacker or thief were able to gain access to the drive files couldn’t be copied to another hard drive. The encryption used by an encrypted USB drive has proven to be the best safeguard against attacks to both your data and operating system.
