## Long description

The Apricorn Aegis Secure Key 3z 32GB is a hardware-encrypted USB flash drive with a USB Type-A 3.2 Gen 1 interface. It provides on-the-fly 256-bit AES XTS encryption, an onboard alphanumeric keypad for PIN entry before connection, FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation, and a rugged IP57-rated aluminum housing. The drive supports software-free operation, Aegis Configurator mass provisioning, independent User and Admin PINs, and features designed to resist physical tampering and unauthorized access.
Advantages
The Secure Key 3z offers strong, hardware-based 256-bit AES XTS encryption and FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation for compliance with stringent cryptographic standards. Its onboard alphanumeric keypad prevents host-based key logging by requiring PIN entry prior to connection, while independent User and Admin PINs, user-forced enrollment, data recovery PINs and a drive reset feature provide flexible management for corporate and government deployments. The device's IP57-rated aluminum casing, epoxy-sealed internals and wear-resistant keypad increase physical durability and tamper resistance. Additional protections include a programmable brute-force self-destruct mechanism, unattended auto-lock, two read-only modes and compatibility with the Aegis Configurator for rapid mass configuration.
Suitable for
Transporting and storing sensitive personal or corporate data securely
Government and enterprise deployments requiring FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated encryption
Fieldwork and travel where a rugged, dust- and water-resistant drive is required
Environments needing centralized provisioning and mass configuration
Forensic and public-access scenarios that require read-only access modes

How to use
Enter your 7–16 digit PIN on the onboard keypad to unlock the drive before plugging it into the computer or device USB port. For deployments, an administrator can set an Admin PIN and configure the drive using Aegis Configurator profiles; drives can be shipped in a User Forced Enrollment state so each end user must create their own PIN on first use. If the User PIN is forgotten, the Admin PIN or programmed one-time recovery PINs can grant access or force a re-enrollment. To erase and reuse the drive, perform the drive reset to clear pins, destroy existing data and generate a new encryption key.
Usage recommendations
Store the Admin PIN and any recovery PINs separately from the physical device. For deployments, use the Aegis Configurator and powered hub to mass-provision uniform security profiles. Regularly verify firmware/validation documentation for compliance and handle the device carefully despite its rugged housing to avoid physical damage that could affect data recovery.
