why would it be a joke?
how else are you going to keep those super-duper top-secret files safe?

Yes but this hasn't really been put into production right?

thats retardedd as fuck, just use encryption
Dat pin-code is just for getting the usb-memory work. You still need a password to open up the encryption.
...if someone really wanted to, I'm sure they could crack the pin easily. There's only 1000 options, and since this is a physical device, it probably doesn't lock a person out.
It would be like playing around with a middle school locker
Can't you like
you know
take the case off and connect it manually using the pinouts, bypassing the password?
the same as those fancy RSA keychain
>>51405133
data is encypted before its stored. getting to the memory chip won't do any good.

If your Aegis Secure Key has reached its limit of of consecutive unsuccessful attempts to unlock, the brute force will activate and will completley reset the drive as follows:
* A new encryption key will be generated
* The User and Admin PIN will be deleted
* All the data on the Key will no longer be accessible
* A new User PIN will need to be set
* The Aegis Secure Key will need to be formatted
>>51404994
Not even 3.0 lmao
>>51405213
that's easy as your mum to bypass, how new are you?
>>51404503
I hope it only allows firmware update after unlock, it's a good idea though
Or, you know, you can just encrypt it.
corsair already make one that encrypts with AES, similar design enter your pin and it decrypts/encrypts
>>51404503
Cops should profiling people who have usb drives like this. why would you need one of those unless you have child pornography or something illegal?

Who is this spunk monk?
>>51405268
Cops should be profiling those who post as anonymous on anonymous sites.
Clearly the only reason you don't want to identify yourselves is because of outstanding warrants or illegal activities linked to you.
>>51405340
false analogy. People have other reasons to want to post anonymously. no one has a reason to hide his shit in a drive like that unless it's illegal
great, more tech for paedofiles and terrorists.
fucking paris could have been stopped if it wasn't for encryption software
The Zeiss reps who came to service our microscopes at work use similar devices to store all their sensitive company files.

>no one has a reason to hide his shit in a drive like that unless it's illegal
one of the untruthiest things to ever be untruthed
It's no different from normal encryption
>>51405356
I keep porn on my drive and I don't want people to see it.
>>51405268
May I see some ID sir?
>>51404503
Use it at work, normal usb are prohibited.
>>51405356
I keep personal records with me because I'm afraid of my house being robbed.
>>51405064
Don't know the specs or limitations, but if it was 4-pin code, it'd be 9999 pins in total, not 100
Also, fucking $200+ and its 2.0?
This is for all you tin foil wearing motherfuckers.
>>51405377
poor bait, anon-kun
>>51405213
>brute force defense
desolder the flash, dump its contents, brute force elsewhere
max password size is 16 digits, so 10^16 possible combinations
It uses AES-256-CBC for the encryption so the key is definitely derived through key-stretching, and however many iterations they use it can't be too computationally expensive considering their microcontroller has to do it
>>51406289
Here is it sir, and yes Dubs is my real name
>>51407955
>>51407880
I'm not at all worried about any entity putting that level of work into getting my password list, bank account info, taxes, and other stuff I currently keep on my encrypted thumbdrive.
I used this kind of usb sticks while I was in the army.
One fatal flaw, you can reset the password but no data will be erased. Dumb as fuck
>>51404503
>battery dies
>password gets erased from EEPROM
>lost all your [spoiler]CP[/spoiler]documents
AYYY LMAO
>>51408034
Yeah, don't get me wrong, for most consumer uses it's probably good enough, especially if it has a TPM to accelerate the key-stretching with (meaning it can perform more iterations of it). It's cheaper and more secure to just grab a cheap flash drive and create a VeraCrypt container or dm-crypt/LUKS volume on that though.

Please do tell me how I can view said container without installing any software on my friend's system. Or the Internet cafe I'm stopping at while traveling, where I need to check in on my online banking.

Are you literally retarded?
I gave two prime examples of when administrative privileges are NOT available.

>>51408268
Them's the rules. You can either work with them, or I guess just not have any ability to access stuff you need in less than ideal circumstances.
>>51404994
>>51405022
Those fucking prices. And tech on the pen drive isn't expensive at all.
>>51408381
Generally not a good idea to mount encrypted volumes on an untrusted machine, since anything can read your volume's files from userspace once it's mounted, but if your only real concern is physical security (as in, it being stolen) then it's the best solution for *your* use case.

I can't wait until people like you can buy brain processing speed upgrades to stop being so retarded.
>>51408000
Nice trips my good man.
May I check them, your highness?
>>51408447
I fully understand the risks. As I said, you either work within the limitations or you don't work at all. Your choice.
>>51408548
Then I guess we're in agreement.
>>51405268
Because some companies have to carry backups of shit that they don't want stolen? Because said backups have to be thoroughly protected so that in case of a loss of equipment, said backup isn't used by rival companies, you know? Not everyone is a fucking private consumer, this kind of shit has it's market. Fucking kids these days.
