Kanguru Bio AES Drive

Strange, I've used my Ironkey flawlessly on Win/Mac/Lin without any  
issues. Other encrypted USB keys, not so much. Many only support  
Windows.

With that said though. Truecrypt is a great product.

Ironkey's support for non-Windows platforms is sorely lacking.

TrueCrypt is what I tend to use for securing a variety of portable  
media.

I'm a bit skeptical about flash drives and hard drives that claim to
have device encryption or hardware encryption.  Most of these  
devices
only work on Windows machines.  I have a issue with the assurance  
that
the drivers / management software (for the device) is written well.
The cost is also higher for these devices.  Which one would expect  
but
are you really getting what you pay for?  I've not done a price
comparison lately, that might not be a issue now.  My personal  
view is
you can get high assurance levels encrypting content on a normal  
flash
drive / hard drive using openssl or gpg.  I know openssl and gpg is
not the most user friendly software for some individuals.

I'm going to reference this article about about one vendor.

The way I see it using XOR and not AES is blatant false advertising.

I am working with a group that has business need to transport  
regulated data
(research/healthcare, not financial or defense) on a jumpdrive.   
I really
like the look of this drive in the link above, but before I move  
forward has
anyone heard of any vulnerabilities in this device or am I missing
something?

Thanks,

Brad
