We have just announced that our Cruzer Enterprise secure USB flash drives have raised the bar for secure devices.  They are now the first and only FIPS 140-2 Level 2 USB drives to earn Common Criteria Certification.

This is an internationally recognized ISO standard (ISO/IEC 15408) used by governments and other organizations to assess the security functional requirements and security assurance requirements of technology products. With its certifications recognized in 26 countries, Common Criteria is an important global evaluation standard for security products.

The evaluation examines the entire device to certify its effectiveness in protecting the confidentiality, integrity and availability of sensitive information, and assures users that the security features of the product will perform as expected.

And speaking of performance, the Cruzer Enterprise range is also safe to use in harsh, wet environments, as it has passed environmental tests to meet Military Standard 810-F 506.4 and 512.4 when submitted to immersion and rainy conditions.  That’s a little extra reassurance that your data stays safe.

We’ve made some key updates to our solution range, and introduced an enhanced version of our CMC management software, which we are featuring at the Infosecurity show in London from 28th – 30th April.

All of our Cruzer Enterprise models now shipping are FIPS certified, offering corporate and government IT departments a valuable tool in securing and managing data.  The drives carry FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) 140-2 Level 2 certification for encryption.

The Cruzer Enterprise now comes in two versions: standard, and Cruzer Enterprise with McAfee Malware Protection.  The McAfee version helps protect users from infection with an automatic anti-malware scan prohibiting file transfers to the secure USB drive when it detects infection on a host PC.

Also, CMC version 3.0 is now available, giving more tools for distributing, protecting and recovering critical data.  The CMC agent resides on a company-issued Cruzer Enterprise drive, enabling corporate IT departments to manage the entire drive lifecycle from deployment, central back-up and restore, and central usage tracking to remote termination of lost drives.
