Apricorn ASK3Z-64GB 64GB Aegis Secure Key 3z USB Type-A Storage

Losing confidential files or having them stolen can cripple a business or expose personal data. The Apricorn ASK3Z-64GB 64GB Aegis Secure Key 3z USB Type-A Storage is a rugged USB flash drive that encrypts every byte as you write it, letting you carry sensitive information safely wherever you go.

Apricorn ASK3Z-64GB 64GB Aegis Secure Key 3z USB Type-A Storage - the answer to data-security worries

Every day professionals face the risk of data breaches, especially when travelling or working in shared spaces. Unprotected USB sticks are easy targets for theft or accidental loss, and once the data is out, the damage can be costly and reputation-damaging. This device solves the problem by combining military-grade 256-bit AES XTS hardware encryption with a built-in PIN keypad, so the drive never reveals its contents to a computer until you unlock it yourself. The FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certification means the encryption meets strict U.S. government standards, giving you confidence that your files are protected against both physical tampering and software attacks.

Benefits of Apricorn ASK3Z-64GB 64GB Aegis Secure Key 3z USB Type-A Storage

You gain peace of mind knowing that even if the drive is lost, the data remains unreadable without the correct PIN. The rugged, water-proof case means you can rely on it in travel, construction sites or outdoor research without fearing physical damage. Because the encryption is handled by hardware, file transfers are fast-up to 190 MB/s read and 80 MB/s write-so security never slows you down. The ability to configure multiple devices at once saves IT teams hours of setup time, while the separate admin PIN lets you manage users without exposing their credentials. Finally, the built-in self-destruct and auto-lock features protect against brute-force attacks and accidental exposure, keeping your confidential information safe in any situation.
