The Kanguru Defender Elite300 is designed to address the most demanding security standards for highly secure, fast-paced environments. With its military-grade FIPS 140-2 Certification, this Superspeed USB 3.0, hardware encrypted, password-protected flash drive is ideal for keeping sensitive government, financial or corporate information highly secure. Available with 256GB capacity, store massive amounts of information under the best data encryption available.
Combining high-level security AES 256-bit hardware encryption with ultra-fast USB 3.0 speed and FIPS 140-2 certification, the Kanguru Defender Elite300 is an impressive secure thumb drive. Along with a physical write-protect switch, It includes robust antivirus by Award-Winning BitDefender, tamper-resistant protection, as well as remote management capabilities and TAA Compliance for the most comprehensive security solution available in a hardware-encrypted flash drive.
Furthermore, all Kanguru Defender encrypted USB flash drives are fully protected from any potential risks associated with "BadUSB". The Defender Elite300 surpasses the most stringent federal, healthcare and financial industry security regulations in the world.
FIPS 140-2 Certification
The Kanguru Defender Elite300 hardware encrypted USB flash drive is FIPS 140-2 Certified.
Meet the most stringent federal, healthcare and financial industry security regulations, including GDPR, HIPAA, Sarbanes Oxley, GLBA, and more with this FIPS 140-2 Certified secure USB drive. FIPS 140-2 is a joint Certification program between NIST (National Institute of Standards) in the United States, and CSE (Communications Security Establishment) in Canada. It provides government guidelines regarding the security evaluation for cryptographic modules. Kanguru Solutions demonstrates that by meeting the level 2 threshold of FIPS 140-2, the Defender Elite300 has strong, tamper evident protections in place to prevent unauthorized access, attack, or brute force attempts to gain access to the sensitive data.
FIPS 197 256-bit AES Hardware Encryption (XTS Mode)
The Kanguru Defender Elite300 uses FIPS 197 Certified AES 256-bit Hardware encryption (XTS-Mode) to secure data contents stored on the USB drive. Since the cryptographic processes are all done in hardware, there is virtually no performance impact when transferring data, unlike the severe performance impact when using software encryption programs. XTS-mode also provides enhanced security when used to encrypt large blocks of data (as in GB's) as it eliminates certain vulnerabilities and patterns which might be exploited in earlier symmetric key implementations. In addition, the password matching and other security operations are all done in the secure confines of the tamper-resistant, epoxy encapsulated cryptographic processor. In short, your data can not be compromised.
