This highly encrypted Kingston flash drive is $140 on Prime Day

If you want to keep your documents and pictures absolutely secure, the Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 50 256GB flash drive is now available for just $140, down from its $220 MSRP, the best price we’ve ever seen.

I’ve been a tech writer for many years now, and quite a few of them I’ve spent looking for the best deals around because no one wants to pay full-price. So, finding this Kingston thumb drive that takes security so seriously for such a good price was a “cha-ching” moment.

The Kingston IronKey Vault Privacy 50 is FIPS 197 certified. Basically, you can trust that your data is secure and encrypted. This model uses 256-bit encryption, which is already unbreakable. Still, Kingston decided to add extra protection against brute force or BadUSB attacks. There’s no safer place to keep your sensitive information.

The flash drive allows you to enable Admin, User, and One-Time recovery passwords. Admins can set up passwords for users, giving them access to certain content. If the user types in the password incorrectly ten times in a row, they will be locked out.

The Admin password, however, is most important because if that one is typed in incorrectly ten times in a row, the drive’s contents will be crypto-erased, making them impossible to recover.

With read speeds up to 250MB/s and write speeds up to 180MB/s, this thumb drive ensures quick file transfers, saving you time and hassle.

Whatever files you need to keep secure, the 256GB Kingston IronKey Vault 50 is the perfect solution, especially when it’s more affordable than ever before. So snatch this deal for $140 at Amazon before time runs out. You can also check out some more great Prime Day deals on flash drives.
