10. Kingston IronKey Keypad 200
The Kingston IronKey Keypad 200 is an operating system-independent, hardware-encrypted USB drive featuring an alphanumeric keypad for easy PIN access. The KP200 utilizes hardware-based XTS-AES 256-bit encryption. It is also certified to FIPS 140-3 Level 3 (pending) for military-grade security and includes enhancements that further increase data protection. The circuits are coated with a special epoxy layer, making it nearly impossible to remove components without damaging them; this resilient epoxy prevents attacks on the semiconductor components. The drive is designed to be tamper-evident to alert the owner. It also offers protection against brute-force password attacks and BadUSB protection with digitally signed firmware. The alphanumeric keypad is covered with a polymer layer that protects the keys and conceals their use by preventing fingerprint analysis.
The KP200 features a built-in battery, allowing the drive to be unlocked initially without software and then connected to any device that supports USB Mass Storage Type A. This provides users with maximum flexibility across different platforms and operating systems.
Additionally, the drive offers two levels of write protection modes - a global mode set by the administrator and a session-only mode that can be set by the user. Write-protected modes can safeguard the drive against malware on untrusted systems. Furthermore, the administrator can load content and configure the global write protection mode, allowing the user to access the data but preventing any modifications.
