Lexar JumpDrive Fingerprint F35 128GB USB 3.0 Flash Drive (Black/Silver)

The Lexar JumpDrive Fingerprint F35 is a 128GB USB flash drive with a fingerprint reader built into the shell, so its contents open with a touch instead of a password or a separate encryption program. The sensor holds up to 10 enrolled fingerprints, which means one drive can be shared across a small team or a family while each person unlocks it with their own thumb. Files are protected by 256-bit AES encryption handled on the drive itself, so there is nothing to install on the host machine and nothing to remember beyond the finger you enrolled. The interface is USB 3.0 (also called USB 3.1 Gen 1), and the casing is metal, resistant to scratches and to the knocks a drive picks up living in a bag. Capacity is 128GB, finished in black and silver. It is aimed at anyone who carries work off site: contracts, client records, exam papers, accounts, scans of identity documents. A drive left behind in a taxi or a computer lab is then only a lost drive rather than a leak, because the files stay sealed without an enrolled fingerprint. Plug it into a desktop or a laptop, touch the sensor and the secure area opens; pull it out and it locks itself again.
