Integral 8GB Crypto Dual - FIPS 197 Encrypted USB AES 256-bit hardware encryption is superior to software encryption used by many other "high security" USBs. * The Crypto Dual has been independently tested for data encryption by the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) committee and validated to FIPS 197. * FIPS 197 Validated - Certificate No. 1137 Dual Password - An administrator can set up an optional master password on a drive. A user then sets a user password as normal. A warning is given to the user after the fifth failed password attempt to take the drive to the administrator to unlock the drive by using the master password. The user and master password cannot be the same. Mandatory encryption of all files (100% privacy) - All data stored on the drive is secure. Unprotected files cannot be saved to the Crypto Dual Crypto Dual has a zero footprint - No software installation is required before use. * Works on Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 AND Mac OS X without administrator privileges. Brute-Force Password Attack Protection - Data is automatically erased after 6 failed access attempts. The data and encryption key are securely destroyed and the Crypto is reset. * Rugged triple-layer waterproof design - Protects the Crypto Dual against knocks, drops, break-in and submerging in water. The electronics are sealed in epoxy resin and then shielded by a steel inner case. The rubberised silicone outer casing provides a final layer of protection. * Unique number - The USB pin on each drive is etched with a unique and random 7-digit code. This allows a record to be kept of which drive has been allocated to a specific user.
