Kanguru Solution addition to its Defender collection of flash drives is loaded with security features.

The Defender Elite30 is designed to provide speed, functionality, and hardware encrypted USB security to organizations seeking to protect their data.

With the ever-increasing threat of data theft, viruses, malware and cybercrimes- organizations and individuals are looking for solutions that will protect the information of their customers, patients, clients and employees.

“The Defender Elite30 combines advanced security features, enhanced high-speed USB 3.0 performance and a physical write protect switch, making it one of the most convenient hardware encrypted USB flash drives on the market today.” says Don Brown, president, Kanguru.

It is a AES 256-bit, hardware encrypted flash drive utilizing USB 3.0 technology for high-speed data transfers. With read speeds of up to 140MB/s and write speeds of up to 40MB/s, it is a fast secure solid state storage devices. It’s also a USB 3.0 flash drive with a physical write protect switch. This enables the user to switch to ‘read-only’, preventing files or presentation from being overwritten if desired. Locking the drive also adds an extra layer of protection from malware or viruses that could exist on a host machine.

Additionally, it has the option to be remotely managed along with other Defender USB drives, HDDs and SSDs. For organizations seeking to protect portable data on USB, remote management is a way to secure data. Organizations can choose between a self-hosted remote management option, or a subscription-based cloud option of the Kanguru Remote Management Console (KRMC) to enable management and tracking abilities of their drives. With KRMC, an administrator can configure and assign the drives to staff members within the organization, then monitor and track them, restrict permissions by domain(s) or IP address, provide reports, push out password support and even wipe all data and delete drives if they are ever lost or stolen.

Every Defender includes a free trial of its built-in real-time anti-virus protection to protect the device and host system from viruses and malware. (The subscription can be renewed for one or two year licenses for a fee to receive security updates.)
