It includes protection against BadUSB with digitally-signed firmware and Brute Force password attacks. The drive has been penetration tested for enterprise-grade security and features multi-password options (Admin, User, and One-Time Recovery), built-in virtual keyboard to prevent keyloggers, and automatic crypto-erase after 10 failed Admin password attempts.
What is the storage capacity and transfer speed of this USB drive?
This IronKey model offers 512GB of storage capacity. It features dual channel performance with maximum read speeds of up to 310 MB/s and maximum write speeds of up to 250 MB/s through its USB 3.2 (Gen 1) Type-C interface.
How does the multi-password system work on the Vault Privacy 50?
The drive supports three password levels: Admin, User, and One-Time Recovery.

What happens if someone enters the wrong password multiple times?
The drive features robust Brute Force attack protection. If a User or One-Time Recovery password is entered incorrectly 10 times in a row, that password becomes locked out. If the Admin password is entered incorrectly 10 times consecutively, the drive will automatically crypto-erase itself as a security measure to protect the stored data.
