Kanguru Defender Basic: Hardware Encrypted Flash Drive

Kanguru Solutions announced its latest security product, the Kanguru Defender Basic, a hardware encrypted, secure flash drive.

The Kanguru Defender Basich is the latest in the Defender line of encrypted flash drives, following the FIPS 140-2 Certified Kanguru Defender Elite and the Kanguru Defender V2.

The Defender Basic offers security features including:

• 256-bit AES Hardware Based Encryption
• Limited Password Attempts
• Free 1 Year Anti-Virus/Malware Protection
• No Administrative Rights Required for Use
• On-Chip Password Matching

“Our goal with the Defender Basic is to provide a highly secure flash drive at an affordable price so that consumers can get the same level of security that businesses and government organizations get.” said Don Brown, CEO of Kanguru Solutions. “The Kanguru Defender Basic retains the same high level hardware encryption as our government and enterprise model, the Kanguru Defender Elite, but removes some of the higher end components such as remote management and FIPS 140-2 Certification. This way we are able to produce a highly secure device that hits a very attractive price point for consumers closing in on the price of unencrypted drives.”

Capacities for the Kanguru Defender Basic start at 2GB and go up to 128GB. Prices start at $29.95.
