Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 50C USB-C 3.2 Gen 1 256GB memory stick, Black/Blue

The Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 50C is a hardware-encrypted portable storage device, offering 256 GB of capacity specifically for transporting sensitive data. This drive is optimized for systems equipped with a USB-C port and uses the high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 specification. Data security relies on 256-bit AES-XTS hardware encryption, which is validated to FIPS 197 standards. Access requires complex password or PIN entry, which is processed locally on the drive; the encryption key is destroyed immediately upon device removal or unauthorized login attempts.

When connected via the USB 3.2 Gen 1 interface, the device achieves sequential read speeds up to 230 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 150 MB/s. The unit is compatible with current Windows 11/10 and macOS 12.x–15.x operating systems. Its robust cap design ensures physical durability, and it carries an IPX8 waterproof rating, protecting data even when submerged up to 1.2 meters. Administrative controls allow IT personnel to configure separate user and admin roles, simplifying management and password recovery within corporate environments.
