    Designed specifically for enterprise, government and military customers that need high performance and reliability in their USB flash storage devices, IronKey Basic S250 flash drive meets the extreme performance and security requirements of some very demanding organizations. It is equipped with strong hardware encryption. A ruggedized, waterproof metal chassis helps protect S250 drive from the elements, and active anti-malware prevents USB threats from spreading.
  • Faster performance, longer life

    The IronKey Basic S250 features dual-channel memory and reads files at up to 29 mg/sec.
  • Safer, hardware-based encryption

    Flash storage drives that rely on software to enable encryption keys are vulnerable to cold-boot and malware attacks because they export AES encryption keys to the host PC. IronKey drive instead uses the IronKey Cryptochip, a proven hardware-based solution that keeps key management on the IronKey drive and off the host PC. After users plug in an IronKey Basic S250 drive, they must first authenticate with a password. Only then does IronKey's Cryptochip enable the encryption keys that unlock data and applications.
  • Designed to foil malware and thieves

    IronKey's hardware-based encryption and password verification can't be disabled by malware or a careless user. Self-defending IronKey drive also provides active protections against the spread of worms, crimeware and other malicious code. And if a thief enters 10 incorrect passwords in an attempt to break into the drive, the Cryptochip will securely erase all encrypted data.
  • Protection that never sleeps

    Unlike software-based encryption, IronKey's AES 256- bit hardware encryption is always on and can't be disabled. And with the IronKey Cryptochip handling encryption, PC performance doesn't suffer.
  • Built to last

    Shielded in a solid, tamper-resistant and waterproof metal casing, IronKey drive is built to survive long time of wear and tear.
