Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3.0 USB 3.2 Gen 1 30GB memory stick, Black

The APRICORN Aegis Secure Key 3.0 is a hardware-encrypted USB flash drive providing 30 GB of secure portable storage. Security protocols utilize 256-bit AES XTS encryption, operating in a mode certified to FIPS 140-2 Level 3 standards. Authentication requires PIN entry directly on the integrated 12-key keypad before data access is granted, ensuring the host computer never handles the encryption keys. This design ensures compatibility across operating systems, including Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and ChromeOS.

Data transfer performance is delivered via the USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface utilizing a standard Type-A connector. The drive achieves sequential read speeds of up to 195 MB/s and sequential write speeds reaching 162 MB/s for efficient file handling. Physical construction uses a robust aluminum housing designed for longevity and resilience in transport. The device is rated IP68 for resistance to dust ingress and water immersion up to 1.0 meter.

The Secure Key incorporates several defense mechanisms against unauthorized access attempts. These features include protection against brute-force attacks, which locks the drive after repeated failed PIN entries. The device supports distinct Admin and User roles, allowing for controlled access and management features like the Read-Only function and a self-destruct PIN option. Power is drawn directly from the USB port, requiring no external power source.
