Before I saw the IronKey, I thought it would be cool for solid state drives to have a reset bit to reset all data bits to zero in hardware in the case that the reset bit is asserted. I'm assuming this is what they are doing for their "self destruct" feature.
untrue, the cryptochip literally erases it's encryption keys (basically the way to decode the password) and makes the key nothing more than a paperweight forever.
Actually, even physically breaking it seems to be a challenge, it was crushed by a treaded Bobcat skid loader and then after multiple times of running over it still worked. It's resiliant. I'd question if it is even possible to pop it open without destroying it utterly. It is twice as expensive as ordinary encrypted keys, but it is also quite possibly the only key that may stand a chance against the NSA.
but seriously the military uses this

The IronKey includes a built-in optional service for backing up your password in case you forget it.

Some levels of encryption are at "Don't Bother" for cracking with current technology. I am assuming this may be one of them.

You could have fun trying to break into it if you like, doing this would only brick the IronKey

Sorry, no free devices for blowing up your IronKey. :)

Sorry, I meant an alpha version of the IronKey software for Mac OSX is already on the device (let's you unlock in on a Mac).
Alpha version for Linux is on the latest devices too.
IronKeyInc 4 years ago
Alpha Mac is already on the device. Linux will be coming out shortly.
Check out the IronKey Forum for the latest info.
