The world's smallest, fastest and most secure USB drive

SafeStick is the smallest, fastest secure USB in the world

Everything you need to be truly protected

Your portable data is no longer at risk

There is a 66 % risk of misplacing an unsecure USB drive. If your unsecured drive is lost, there is no way to get the data on it back, or protect it from an unwanted finder. With SafeStick, even if lost, your data is always secure. Password-protected, military-grade encrypted and capable of securing up to 128GB of data, SafeStick can help you eliminate the risk of data breach.

AES 256-bit Hardware Encryption in CBC-mode

Protecting your data is as easy as drag-and-drop.

Military-grade encryption

SafeStick provides automatic, full hardware encryption of all data, featuring a single on-board security chip, that can’t be bypassed, and encrypts all data copied to the drive with AES256 in CBC-mode. CBC-mode is far superior to ECB-mode, which does not hide data patterns that well.

CBC-mode is superior to ECB

Unique randomly generated keys

Encryption keys are randomly generated on-board (using ANSI X9.31 RNG) at user setup, leaving no back door. All communications are encrypted as well.

Mandatory password protection

Can you trust anyone to decide which files are sensitive and which are not? We think all work files should be considered sensitive!

100% protected with mandatory password

The always-on password is the only thing that can give access to the data you store on your secure device. There is no master password and no back-door that can access the sensitive information. SafeStick protects itself from brute-force password attacks by automatically destroying data after 19 failed login attempts.

Recovery of lost passwords

There is no way to access your data on SafeStick without the correct password. However, by installing the management software SafeConsole on your network you can recover lost passwords with the help of your IT help desk using a simple challenge-response method.

Mandatory password protection of all files

Inactivity Lock

Have you ever walked away from your USB drive inserted in a computer?

Locks when left behind

When you've unlocked your SafeStick, you are granted access to all stored files. A timer will automatically lock SafeStick if it has been inactive during a configurable number of minutes. This makes sure your data can not be accessed by any next user of a computer where SafeStick is left unattended.

Hardware Brute-Force Protection

Not open for machine hacking attempts

Security in the hardware

True brute-force protection with password attempt counter built into the hardware. SafeStick is also equipped with a user alert system that tracks faulty unlock attempts, making the solution aware of social-engineered attacks.

Onboard Autorun Malware Protection

Protect your USB drives and your network from viruses and trojans.

Autorun prevention chokes viruses

To prevent the spreading of autorun malware SafeStick always overwrites the autorun.inf files stored on the encrypted storage volume, which chokes the effect of viruses such as Conficker. The unique technology relieves the user in protecting the device from becoming a liability and prevents Conficker autorun, malware infection, viruses and trojans from spreading via USB into your networks.

Total Reset

As good as new again

If the chosen password is forgotten, SafeStick can be wiped clean and reset to factory settings, giving the user a chance to choose a new strong password. This procedure will, of course, erase all stored data.

Reuse your old drives for new employees

SafeStick has a warranty of 2 years but the normal lifetime of a drive is much longer than that. Make sure you make the most of your investment and re-issue SafeStick from former employees to newcomers. When your portfolio of secure USB drives are connected to SafeConsole management you get automatic inventory of used drives, which can help you recycle unused drives.

SafeStick is waterproof

Tamperproof

SafeStick is designed to endure much more than just the ordinary wear and tear.

EPOXY SEALED CHIP

Dipped in epoxy, the device controller that handles all security is tamper-proof and thus superior to and more reliable than multiple-chip solutions and software attempts.

WATER AND FIRE RESISTANT

The solid casing endures much more than ordinary wear and tear and makes SafeStick waterproof beyond military specifications.

Technical Information

USER-FRIENDLY SETUP

The encryption is totally transparent, and no software installation or administrative privileges are needed. Simply plug it in, enter your strong user-definable password and start using it.
