Protect your vital business information with the new Toshiba Encrypted USB Flash Drive, a device that utilizes a hardware-based Military-grade encryption process to deliver an easy to use and affordable solution to data transfer. Available in 4GB, 8GB, 16GB and 32GB² capacities, the Toshiba Encrypted USB Flash Drive uses a built-in mini-keyboard to authenticate access, incorporating a rechargeable battery so the user can enter a secure code before plugging into a USB port. Once access is granted, the drive “unlocks” the media, permitting clearance to all of the content stored on the drive. When the drive is removed from a USB port, the drive automatically re-locks and encrypts the stored media.

“There is a heightened sense of awareness that confidential content is at risk,” says Toshiba’s vice president of branded storage products Maciek Brzeski. “Toshiba developed the Encrypted USB Flash Drive as a new way to provide portable data security with one of the highest encryption standards available on the market.”

Should the Toshiba Encrypted USB Flash Drive become lost or stolen, it is equipped with a Brute Force Hack Defense Mechanism that will render all stored information irrecoverable after 10 consecutive unsuccessful attempts to enter the secure PIN.  From US$95 for 4GB. www.toshiba.com
