Kingston BlackBox Uber-Secure Flash Drive

Posted on: April 15, 2008


Kingston BlackBox Secure Flash Drive

Kingston has a new uber-secure flash drive that also happen to cost big bucks: $424 for 8GB. In fact, this high price is probably driven in part by a federal requirement that some sensitive data has to be stored on a device that has received the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 certification. And the last time I looked, there was not a whole lot of 8GB flash drives in that category… Of course, the cost of the encryption hardware might be important too, but a chip of that size can’t cost a whole lot to make…
