If you really need encryption then just use a normal flash drive with Truecrypt (as long as you use it on computers with administrator priviledges and you're not going to get any better as far as encryption goes)."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

Even Ironkey themselves simply adapted opensource software but use their own proprietary nodes. Pretty much everything you want then seems to be available open source which is much much more trustworthy than anything proprietary. Security is one area where open source really comes into its own."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"
