October 12, 2006: Kingston Technology Company, Inc., the world’s largest independent memory manufacturer, yesterday (October
11, 2006) introduced a new line of rugged, waterproof USB 2.0 Flash drives featuring industry-leading hardware-based encryption to safeguard
critical data.
Joining the Kingston® DataTraveler® family is DataTraveler Secure. Ideal for consumer and small to medium-size business (SMB) users, DataTraveler
Secure USB drives are shipping immediately. Capable of withstanding harsh operating conditions, the new DataTraveler Secure feature titanium-coated
stainless steel casings that are waterproof rated and conform to the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 60529 IPX8 standard to protect
against water damage to depths up to four feet.
Access control and data protection are provided via 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) hardware-based encryption that enables information to

Designed to protect sensitive data on Windows-based systems, the Kingston DataTraveler Secure comes with MyDataZone software that lets users apply
password access control for a private data storage area on the USB drive. If ever lost or stolen, this advanced encryption continues to protect data
