iStorage datAshur PRO+C 512GB — Secure USB Type-C Memory Stick

The iStorage datAshur PRO+C 512GB is a world-class secure USB flash drive that blends effortless usability with enterprise-grade protection. Built for professionals who must safeguard sensitive data on the go, this Type-C memory stick combines hardware AES-XTS 256-bit encryption with PIN authentication to deliver robust security without sacrificing performance. With USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds and a practical 512GB capacity, it accommodates large files, media, and sensitive documents while keeping them sealed behind a trusted, on-device security boundary. This model includes a Type-C to Type-A adapter, ensuring seamless compatibility with a wide range of devices—from modern laptops to older desktops—so you can rely on secure storage wherever you work.

• Military-grade security in a portable drive: The datAshur PRO+C uses AES-XTS 256-bit hardware encryption and requires a PIN at device boot to unlock access. Data never leaves the drive unencrypted, protecting your information from USB sniffing, malware, and unauthorized access. The encryption happens on-device, so your files remain protected even if the drive is lost or stolen.
• PIN protection with zero-exposure data: Access to the drive is controlled by a PIN entered directly on the device’s keypad. This means credentials are never transmitted to the host computer, reducing the risk of keyloggers or malware capturing your password. Automatic lockout features deter brute-force attempts, helping maintain data integrity in high-risk environments.
• USB Type-C convenience with wide compatibility: Featuring USB 3.2 Gen 1 (5 Gbps) over a USB-C interface, this memory stick delivers swift data transfers while remaining compatible with modern laptops, desktops, and devices that support USB-C. An included Type-C to Type-A adapter extends compatibility to older USB ports, making it a versatile tool for mixed work setups.
• Secure portability for BYOD and hybrid work: The datAshur PRO+C is designed for professionals who move between locations, devices, and networks. Its compact form factor, combined with strong hardware encryption, enables safe data transfer for clients, colleagues, and partners—perfect for consultants, executives, healthcare professionals, legal teams, and field workers who require secure data handling without relying on cloud solutions.
• Compliance-ready security with ongoing enhancements: With FIPS 140-3 Level 3 pending certification, datAshur PRO+C aligns with strict government and enterprise security expectations. The pending status reflects a commitment to independent validation and higher assurance, while practical features like on-device PIN authentication and encrypted storage deliver immediate protective benefits for everyday use.
