The Kingston IronKey™ Vault Privacy 50 Series includes premium USB-A and USB-C®* flash drives that deliver enterprise-grade security with FIPS 197-certified AES 256-bit hardware encryption in XTS mode, including protection against BadUSB with digitally signed firmware and brute-force password attacks. The VP50 is penetration tested for enterprise-grade security. Because it's encrypted storage under the user's physical control, the VP50 Series offers significantly better data protection than the internet or cloud services.

The Vault Privacy 50 supports the multi-password option (admin, user, and one-time recovery) with complex or passphrase modes. This makes it easier to recover access to data if one of the passwords is forgotten. The traditional complex mode allows passwords of 6 to 16 characters using three of four character sets. The new passphrase mode supports numeric PINs, phrases, word lists, or even song lyrics of 10 to 64 characters. The administrator can enable a user password and a one-time recovery password, or reset the user password to restore data access. To facilitate password entry, the “eye” icon can be enabled to display the entered password, reducing typos and thus reducing failed login attempts. Brute-force attack protection locks user or one-time recovery passwords after 10 consecutive invalid passwords are entered and crypto-wipes the USB stick after 10 consecutive incorrect entries.

To protect against potential malware on untrusted systems, both the administrator and the user can enable write protection for the USB stick. Additionally, the integrated virtual keyboard protects passwords from keyloggers and screen loggers.

Organizations can customize and configure the VP50 Series USB drives with a product ID (PID) for integration with standard endpoint management software, meeting their organization's IT and cybersecurity needs using Kingston's personalization program.

Small and medium-sized businesses can use the Admin role to locally manage their USB drives, for example, to configure or reset employee user or one-time recovery passwords, restore data access to locked USB drives, and comply with laws and regulations when forensic investigations are required.

The Vault Privacy 50 offers fast dual-channel performance for all storage capacities. The USB drive is waterproof to IPX8 Class****, TAA compliant, and assembled in the USA.
