Marketing Information

With FIPS 140-2 level 2 certification for encryption, a standard set by the National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST), the Cruzer Enterprise FIPS edition caters to the ultra-sensitive security requirements of government agencies and financial institutions. Now employees can safely extend their work environments to wherever their business takes them. Rather than rely upon users to secure files, SanDisk Cruzer Enterprise FIPS edition imposes mandatory access control on all files. They are stored in a secure partition that implements the strongest 256-bit hardware-based AES encryption. Since the encryption keys never leave the drive, they are kept safe from software hacking attempts. Stored in a secured area sealed with epoxy glue, the keys are also protected against physical tampering attempts. CMC (Central Management and Control) server software adds a higher level of control to Cruzer Enterprise FIPS edition. It centrally manages the drive's complete lifecycle, from initial user-deployment, through password administration and data backup, and finally to drive termination if lost or stolen.
