Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3z is the Coolest USB Flash Drive on the Market

USB flash drives are a convenient way to carry around gigabytes of data, but they are a security nightmare because of how easily you can lose them. Many USB makers offer a software-based data encryption solution, but users may not bother to use it.

The Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3z features built-in hardware-based 256-bit AES XTS encryption with FIPS 140-2 validation. It is functional across platforms, so you can use it on Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, Chrome, embedded systems and anything else with a USB port and storage file system.

It is larger than your standard USB flash drive, but it is designed to be tough, waterproof and dustproof. It has a keypad where you enter a passcode to unlock the drive. It also has a built-in rechargeable battery, so it’s perfect for on-the-go use.
