Kingston's DataTraveler Vault Privacy Edition USB Flash drive protects even the most sensitive data with 256-bit AES hardware encryption and an enforced complex password. Assembled in the USA, it features data transfer rates up to 24MB/sec. read and 10MB/sec. write to meet the requirements of various applications. Its durable, aluminum casing provides added protection.

Tough Protection Kingston's DataTraveler Vault Privacy Edition USB Flash drive is assembled in the U.S. for organizations that require a secure way to store and transfer portable data. Users can set a complex password with minimum characteristics to prevent unauthorized access. The stored data is 100 percent secured by hardware-based, 256-bit AES encryption to guard sensitive information in case the drive is lost or stolen. And when encountering brute-force attacks, the drive locks down and reformats after 10 intrusion attempts.
Fast Speed The DataTraveler Vault Privacy Edition provides high data transfer rates of up to 24MB/sec. read and up to 10MB/sec. write, meaning you need not to wait too long during data transfers.
Physical Strength The durable aluminum casing confidently protects the flash drive from accidental drops and bumps. And in compliance with IEC 60529 IPX8 specification, the DataTraveler Vault provides up to 4 ft waterproof capability for added protection.

chussung 3/30/2012 7:14:34 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Great for what it is! Pros: hardware encryption, Admin rights NOT required. Acceptable read/write speed. Cons: Maybe the physical dimensions compared to modern USB flash memory. But the encryption hardware demands a bit of size premium. Minor: wish the "keyring hole" could accept an actual keyring. Other Thoughts: The read speeds allow the viewing of a moderate quality video with no issue. It keeps you personal data safe from the average prying eye. While not FIPS rated, it is secured by AES 256. Furthermore, if that file is particularly sensitive, secure it using Truecrypt software and make it double secure (kingston HW + Truecrypt SW). A slight write speed penalty due to the "on the fly" encryption while writing the file. Smaller than my first USB drive, but much more secure. Have not yet tested the failsafe "10 wrong guesses = data format" Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
AW Cobra 9/25/2009 6:59:39 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Secure & Easy Pros: If you want everything AES encrypted on your USB drive, this one is for you. Easy to use - everything loads directly from USB drive (i.e. no CD). Cons: Read speed is fast. Write speed a little disappointing. For 201 MB consisting of 477 files in 39 folders: Reads took 10 sec = 20 MB/sec. Writes took 70 sec = 2.8 MB/sec. For my old 512 Mbyte Corsair USB this took 10 sec read and 35 sec write (so writes about 2X Kingston DTV = 5.6 MB/sec) Other Thoughts: Nice waterproof aluminum case with cap that clips on the end. Approved by my company's IT for proprietary info. I like everything about this USB drive, except the write speed - if only it was closer to the 10 MB/sec advertised. Perhaps with larger files it would be faster. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
