This IronKey Keypad 200 USB drive from Kingston uses the highest encryption and can only be accessed using a PIN. It is a great way of securing data that physically leaves the home or office.

The IronKey KP200 is pending certification for FIPS-140-3 Level 3 military-grade security. The circuitry inside the drive is coated with tamper-evident, tough epoxy material to prevent access to its internal components without damaging them. The drive is also physically resistant to water and dust, with a protection rating of IP57. The keys of the keypad are coated with a special protective polymer layer that prevents the analysis of fingerprints that may be left on the individual keys.

The Kingston IronKey Keypad 200 is available in capacities ranging from 8GB – 128GB and is covered by a limited three-year warranty with free technical support. The drive has no PIN when delivered, so the user is forced to choose a PIN ranging from 7 to 8 digits, with a maximum of 15. An enhanced random number generator is used to strengthen the generation of the drive’s unique encryption key.While the KP200 is unlocked with a User PIN, it also allows setting a separate Admin PIN.

If the Admin PIN of the KP200 is incorrectly entered ten times in a row, built-in Brute Force attack protection immediately crypto-erases the drive’s data, permanently destroying what’s on it and resetting the device. The KP200 also safeguards against malware from untrusted computer systems by using two different Read-Only modes. These modes enable the drive’s administrator to write-protect the drive during a specific session or globally across all user sessions.
