Protecting Your Privacy
While the Internet has greatly increased the flow of information between people, most online communications are not transmitted over a secure, encrypted line. And, as Internet technologies become increasingly complicated, it is more and more difficult to control the distribution of your personal information while you surf the Web.
Now military-grade security and stealth browsing privacy are available to everyone. The IronKey was made to be both secure and private, especially when used with IronKey’s Secure Sessions Service?a highly secure and private tunnel through the public Internet.
Portability with Privacy
You can run portable applications directly from your IronKey secure flash drive without leaving personally identifiable information behind on the computer. For example, you can carry the Firefox web browser with you, including all your bookmarks, plug-ins and settings, and use it on almost any PC?all without leaving a footprint or passwords on the computer. This may be particularly important when you are using a public computer, such as at school, the library, or a hotel’s business center.
Additionally, the onboard browser has been secured and is fully accessible only after you unlock your IronKey, ensuring that access is only available to you. It integrates with the IronKey Password Manager so you can securely and automatically log into your online accounts wherever you go.
High-Speed Web Security
If you want to surf the Web safely and privately, use your IronKey. With just a click of a button, the onboard Firefox browser enables IronKey’s Secure Sessions Service for high-speed, encrypted Internet communications. You can safely tunnel through insecure wireless networks, public Wi-Fi hotspots, and prying ISPs without worry because your traffic will be encrypted and directed through a secure IronKey server. Also, your IP address, geographic location, and other personally identifiable information will be protected as you pass through the Tor network, which IronKey has extended and optimized for speed and security.
If you ran a Web browser from a regular flash drive, you may end up burning out the memory chips. This is because most flash drives use inexpensive flash memory. But the IronKey uses super high-quality SLC NAND flash memory for extended data longevity. These chips have been optimized for speed, giving you a smooth Web experience.
Security and Privacy by Design
As with all of IronKey’s online services, the Secure Sessions Service was designed from the ground up with your security and privacy in mind. Our high-speed Tor servers identify only that you are an IronKey customer, but not who you are. Finally, a way to surf the Web safely and privately from practically anywhere?and all without leaving a footprint on the computer.
