The IronKey

The Internet has altered a lot of the habits that people live, work and think. It has also introduced new dangers, like identity theft, into people’s lives as companies, employers and governments have begun to gather and store people’s personal information.
Enter the IronKey –from the eponymous company IronKey, comes in capacities from 1 GB to 8 GB that encrypts data five ways to Sunday while achieving government certification as tamper evident.. Housed in a metal case, the IronKey is filled with a compound that makes it both waterproof and tamperproof. If somebody tries to open the case or enters the incorrect password more than ten times, the IronKey will “self-destruct” and destroy all of the data.
The IronKey also provides protection for those using shared computers or an open wireless network. The drive contains its own web browser that channels Internet activity through the IronKey’s Secure Sessions Service. This prevents Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and network operators from monitoring users.
The drive leaves almost no footprint on computers because all passwords and browsing history are stored securely on the IronKey itself. The IronKey offers everybody, from business people to students, privacy and computer security wherever they go.
I like the product, but I fear I forget the password then my data will be lost. So I may not to purchase it.
