The Kanguru Defender Elite300 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 secure flash drive is designed for high data security organizations looking to meet the most demanding regulatory security standards. With military grade AES 256-bit hardware encryption (using XTS Mode), lightning-fast USB 3.0 transfer speeds, FIPS 140-2 Level 2 certification, onboard, world-class, AntiVirus by BitDefender, tamper-resistance, and remote management capabilities, the Defender Elite300 is perfect for high security environments, including government, healthcare and financial industries. The Defender Elite300 complies with the Trade Agreements Act (TAA Compliance).
The Defender Elite300 has a handy physical write protect switch to easily switch between read/write and read-only protection if desired. Furthermore, all Kanguru Defender USB drives are fully protected from potential risk of "BadUSB" with digitally- signed RSA-2048 secure firmware.
256-bit AES Hardware encryption (XTS Mode)
The Kanguru Defender Elite300 uses FIPS validated AES 256-bit Hardware encryption (XTS-Mode) to secure data contents stored on the USB drive. Since the cryptographic processes are all done in hardware, there is virtually no performance impact when transferring data, unlike the severe performance impact when using software encryption programs. XTS-mode also provides enhanced security when used to encrypt large blocks of data (as in GB's) as it eliminates certain vulnerabilities and patterns which might be exploited in earlier symmetric key implementations. In addition, the password matching and other security operations are all done in the secure confines of the tamper-resistant, epoxy encapsulated cryptographic processor. In short, your data can not be compromised.
RSA-2048, digitally-signed secure firmware
Protect even more than just your data. Protect your network and infrastructure as well from malware tampering with built-in RSA-2048, Digitally-Signed Secure Firmware. Designed in compliance with NIST's requirements for securing device firmware, this drive is protected from "badUSB" to prevent malware attacks by a third-party. In the event of such an attack, the drive is designed to shut down, preventing the flash drive from being used as a vehicle for hackers. This makes it an ideal, trusted encrypted USB drive for whitelisting in an endpoint security environment.
SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface
The Kanguru Defender Elite300 offers USB 3.0 technology for lightning-fast data transfers, while also maintaining compatibility with USB 2.0. Connecting the Defender Elite300 to a USB 3.0 supported USB port provides superior read / write speeds for quick, easy and convenient transfer of data.
Tamper-proof design
The Kanguru Defender Elite300's casing is protected with an epoxy compound that is water-resistant and prevents physical access to the chip. Any subversive attempt to remove the epoxy compound destroys the flash chip, rendering it unusable and inaccessible.
