Kingston Technology IronKey 960GB Vault Privacy 80 XTS-AES 256-bit Encrypted External SSD

The Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 80 External SSD is Kingston's first innovative, OS-independent, hardware-encrypted external SSD with a touchscreen for enhanced data privacy. The VP80ES protects against brute-force attacks and BadUSB with digitally signed firmware. The brute-force protection cryptographically erases the drive by default after 15 incorrect entries of administrator and user passwords. The drive is FIPS 197 certified with XTS-AES 256-bit encryption using a Common Criteria EAL5+ (CC EAL5+) certified secure microprocessor and is TAA compliant.

With the user-friendly VP80ES, which unlocks as easily as a smartphone, files can be dragged and dropped while keeping data secure. With the Vault Privacy 80ES featuring an intuitive color touchscreen and the option for multiple passwords (Admin and User) in numeric PIN or passphrase mode, your data is significantly better protected than on the internet and cloud services.

Whether it's critical company information, customer documents, or high-resolution images and videos, the drive is perfect for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) as well as content creators. It comes with two USB 3.2 Gen 1 adapter cables, USB-C®**-to-USB-A and USB-C-to-USB-C, for easy connection to computers and other devices. The VP80ES is the perfect companion when you're away from home or on the go and need secure data and content, so you always have everything at hand and can remain productive while mobile. It is ideal for regular data backups and protection against ransomware.

The administrator can activate a user password and set up security options, such as password requirements by defining the maximum number of shared attempts, the minimum password length of 6 to 64 characters, and alphanumeric password rules. You can also use the "space" to make a passphrase easier to remember as a list of words, a memorable quote, or the lyrics of a favorite song. Alternatively, like a mobile device, you can unlock it via the PIN pad and tap the "eye" to see the entered password, avoiding failed login attempts and frustration.

If a user password is forgotten, the administrator password can also be used to access data and restore user access.
