Apricorn USB flash drive

Choosing this drive means you get far more than storage space. The hardware encryption runs on-the-fly, so you never have to wait for a separate program to lock files. Because the keypad is on the device, your password never touches the host computer, reducing the risk of malware stealing it. The drive also locks automatically when unplugged or after a period of inactivity, giving you peace of mind even if you forget to log out.

The aluminium case is both crush-resistant and sealed with a tough epoxy coating, making the drive suitable for field work, construction sites or travel in harsh conditions. With independent user and admin PINs, you can delegate access to team members while retaining control, and the reset feature lets you wipe and reuse the drive as often as needed without compromising security.
