Kingston Digital, the Flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology, announced at CES two additions to its Wireless family with MobileLite Wireless G3 and MobileLite Wireless Pro. The company also unveiled the KC400 solid-state drive along with the DataTraveler 2000 encrypted USB Flash drive. DataTraveler 2000 encrypted USB Flash drive

The DataTraveler 2000 encrypted USB Flash drive offers hardware encryption and PIN protection with access through an onboard alphanumeric keypad. It will ship later in Q1.

The drive is OS independent and features hardware-based, full disk AES 256-bit data encryption in XTS mode. Encryption is done on the drive and no software or hardware drivers are needed.

For additional security, its auto-lock feature is activated when the drive is removed from the host device and the encryption key and password are deleted after 10 invalid login attempts to thwart brute force intrusions.
