IronKey D300

Protect mobile data with advanced security.

Available in Standard and Managed models

All Models

Kingston’s IronKey™ D300 USB Flash drive features an advanced level of
security that builds on the features that made IronKey well-respected, to
safeguard sensitive information. It’s FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certied, with 256-bit
AES hardware-based encryption in XTS mode. An essential pillar to setting
security standards, corporate policies and data loss protection (DLP) best
practices. An important element in the quest for compliance with industry
standards and global regulations such as the GDPR.

For added peace of mind, the drive uses digitally signed rmware, making
it immune to BadUSB, and enforces complex password protection
minimum characteristics to prevent unauthorised access.

Encryption and decryption is done on the drive, with no trace left on the host
system, and the drive locks down and reformats after 10 invalid attempts to
protect against brute force attacks.

Rugged and secure, IronKey D300 has a zinc casing and tamper-evident
epoxy seal for physical security, so you can rest assured the drive will hold up,
even in the most demanding situations.

Customisable, easy to use and waterproof up to 4 feet, conforming to
IEC60529 IXP8
compromise on speed over security.

Serialised (S) models

The IronKey D300S / D300SM brings two additional features on top of its
industry-leading data protection.

Unique serial-number and barcode printed on drive

• Allows network administrators simply to read or scan the code instead of
plugging in a drive to learn its unique serial number.

• Time saver both when the drive is deployed and when it is returned, as well
as during any physical auditing of hardware done by a company. If a lost
drive is found, the owner can quickly be tracked by the serial number.

Virtual keyboard

• Enables users to enter a password via mouse clicks, instead of using
a physical keyboard; to reduce the risk of a keylogger intercepting the
password being keyed in.

• Protection when using your encrypted drive on other computers that
may be logging every keystroke made on a physical keyboard, including
passwords.

Managed Model

IronKey D300M / D300SM is available in a Managed model that requires
IronKey EMS, with the D300SM also supporting SafeConsole by DataLocker
This allows central management of drive access and usage across thousands
of drives.

Either cloud-based or on-premises, it enforces drive-specic policies, such as
password strength and retry limits, and lets administrators remotely disable
lost or stolen drives, recover lost passwords and more.
