Protect your organization's portable data by choosing Kingston's ultra-secure Data Traveler 6000 USB (Universal Serial Bus) flash drive. The DT6000 is FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated & features 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption using XTS block cipher mode. XTS is the newest cipher mode that provides stronger protection over other block cipher modes such as CBC & ECB modes. Data Traveler 6000 uses elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), which is recommended by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) as part of the NSA Suite B set of cryptographic algorithms. Encryption keys are protected with a 256-bit Master Key Encryption Key (MKEK), preserving the AES 256-bit encryption strength.
