I agree with Chris.  My Ironkey works fine on Linux.  True, it does not had all the add-on stuff that is available when 
launching from Windows.  If you have an older Ironkey, you will need to update it to get the Linux and Mac support.

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.
www.h-online.com/security/features/Enclosed-but-not-encrypted-746199
.html 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
