Kingston DataTraveler Secure, Secure–Privacy Edition: Encrypted, Rugged For Your Protection


It’s pretty simple really: Kingston makes good flash-memory USB drives. Kingston takes said drives, encases them in titanium-coated stainless steel making them waterproof to depths up to four feet and protects the data on the drives with 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) hardware-based encryption that can be encrypted and decrypted by authorized users only, without the need for any additional software. The Privacy Edition ups that security by including a complex password protocol for locking out potential attacks after ten failed password attempts. The DataTraveler Secure is available now in 512MB ($33), 1GB ($62), 2GB ($108), and 4GB ($244) sizes; the Privacy Edition will show up in January 2007.

You can get the privacy thing easily for free by using truecrypt (and the traveller disk option). And it is open source as well.
