Kingston DataTraveler 5000 USB Flash Drive
January 30, 2010 | Hardware, Portable Storage | 1 CommentKingston has launched the 5000 Kingston DataTraveler USB flash drive. Even if it does not come with capacities higher than we expect these days from flash drives, it only protects data featuring encryption AES 256-bit hardware.
Encryption AES 256-bit hardware uses XTS mode that Kingston say is much stronger than the CCP and ECB modes available. Using XTS encryption algorithms with Elliptic Curve Cryptology (ECC) disks actually meet the standards Suite B, which are approved by the U.S. government … ie, it is a safe place to dump your files.
The command can be accessed by entering a passphrase. If someone else take the disk and attempts to access data that the reader is forced into lock mode after a period of invalid attempts. And maintaining secure files from other download and copy the data DataTraveler 5000, the drive is rugged and waterproof, which allows him to go through physical abuse also. The housing is coated with titanium and stainless steel, providing greater protection to use. [via gadgedvenue]
