Product information

Kingston's IronKey S1000 meets even the most stringent security requirements, making it the ultimate secure USB flash drive. It offers 100% protection for sensitive data through 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption in XTS mode, FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation, and cryptographic key management directly on the USB storage. The USB drive detects and reacts to physical tampering. Data is automatically protected when the USB drive is removed. For added security, the USB drive's digitally signed firmware makes it immune to BadUSB. The S1000 allows for two types of passwords: either a complex password or a passphrase up to 255 characters long. After ten invalid password attempts, the drive is locked with the option to reformat or destroy it.

Basic Model
The basic model of the S1000 is available with 4GB to 128GB* storage capacity, offering fast USB 3.0** performance with enhanced, uncompromising hardware-based security. The USB drive's casing is made of anodized aluminum, filled with epoxy resin, and meets the most stringent military-standard stability and durability requirements. The S1000 is dust-resistant, shockproof, and waterproof according to MIL-STD-810F.

Strictest Data Security Available
The "Secure Lock" helps maintain an ever-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 others.
