Description
Kingston’s IronKey™ S1000 meets the strictest standards to make it the ultimate security drive. Safeguard 100 per cent of confidential data with 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption, in XTS mode, and FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation with on-device Cryptochip Encryption Key management. The drive detects and responds to physical tampering and provides automatic data protection upon drive removal. For added peace of mind, the drive uses digitally-signed firmware that makes it immune to BadUSB. S1000 allows for two passphrase types: either a complex password or a passphrase up to 255 characters long. After ten invalid password attempts, the drive locks down with the option to reformat or destroy it. Enterprise model In addition to the basic model qualities, the S1000 enterprise version offers central administration of drive access and usage across thousands of IronKey enterprise drives with the intuitive, easy-to-use, secure online interface*. Using an activated licence with SafeConsole Management service, the drive works with either cloud-based or on-premises servers to remotely enforce password and access policies, allow users to recover lost passwords and even let administrators repurpose drives no longer in use. Strictest data security around Secure lock helps comply with a growing list of regulations and standards including Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS), Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH), Payment Card Industry (PCI) and more. Military-grade strength and durability For a drive built to last Easily manage thousands of IronKey drives Centrally administer access and usage policies 128GB of storage space Securely carry the biggest datasets and files
