IronKey Inc., the creator of secure flash drive, announced IronKey Enterprise with centralized management capabilities and enforced security policies. IronKey Enterprise brings unprecedented mobile data security to enterprise and government organizations by combining the world's most secure USB flash drive with the ability to remotely manage thousands of IronKeys, and strictly enforce security policies across these devices, all from a centralized administrative console.

As more business processes are conducted online and off-site, threats of data breach, identity theft and electronic fraud present serious challenges for organizations not equipped with proper hardware or portable device management. IronKey Enterprise allows organizations to leverage the IronKey's hardware-based military grade encryption to protect their critical data by allowing a single administrator to deploy and manage thousands of IronKeys with ease and efficiency. This administrator can also create a standardized set of enforceable policies that are downloaded into each IronKey. Because IronKey Enterprise enforces these policies, the organization is completely reassured that end users will comply with data protection policies. This substantially reduces the risks associated with lost, stolen or copied flash drives.

IronKey Enterprise supports advanced functionality including secure device recovery and works seamlessly with many industry-leading endpoint security solutions. IronKey Enterprise also leverages the portable security applications and Internet protection services that are built into each IronKey, allowing it to extend the IronKey's defenses to identity management. Administrators of IronKey Enterprise can allow or prevent end users from using these software and services by setting policy switches in the administrative console.

"Our enterprise customers are acutely aware of the serious risks these mobile devices introduce when not protected," said Arthur Coleman, CMO at IronKey. "IronKey's combination of security applications and services along with hardware-based encryption already deliver unmatched security for USB drives. With the addition of centralized management, remote administration and policy enforcement, agencies and companies can now protect and recover these devices along with the data, and defend their owners' privacy when used online, no matter where they travel throughout the world."

IronKey is an ideal platform for managing mobile identities and deploying portable applications. IronKey Enterprise supports an unlimited number of RSA SecurID one-time password tokens. IronKey Enterprise devices also include public-key digital certificates enabling IronKey customers to enjoy the benefits of Simple Strong Authentication(TM) by leveraging standard public key, PKCS interfaces. IronKey's high performance and superior reliability make it an ideal platform for enterprises deploying virtual desktops allowing portable applications and secured operating systems to be carried on the devices.

IronKey Enterprise is available now.
