IronKey Enterprise to Enhance Security of Critical Portable Data for Canadian Businesses and Government Agencies.

Los Altos, CA and Gatineau, Quebec (PRWEB) August 20, 2008 — IronKey, maker of the world’s most secure flash drive, and Channel Management International (CMI), a Canadian channel management and distribution company, today announced that CMI will resell IronKey Enterprise into the Canadian market. IronKey Enterprise brings unprecedented mobile data security to enterprise and government organizations by combining the world’s most secure USB flash drive with the world’s most powerful USB management solution. IronKey Enterprise remotely manages thousands of IronKeys while strictly enforcing security policies across these devices, all from a centralized administrative console.

“We are extremely pleased to partner with IronKey, a proven and trusted provider of USB encryption technology,” said Luc Gervais, president of CMI. “IronKey out-performs its competitors and its Enterprise offering meets a growing need within our reseller base.”

IronKey Enterprise allows organizations to leverage the IronKey’s FIPS 140-2 Level 2 security validation, including hardware-based military grade encryption, to protect their critical data by allowing a single administrator to deploy and manage thousands of IronKeys with ease and efficiency. This administrator creates security policies that are downloaded onto each IronKey, ensuring that all end users comply with data protection policies and substantially reducing the risks associated with lost or stolen flash drives.

“We are dedicated to working with strategic partners who are proven leaders in bringing cohesive security solutions to their customers,” said Stewart Fox, vice president of sales at IronKey. “CMI’s focus on industry-leading security offerings makes IronKey Enterprise a natural addition to its portfolio, and its depth of understanding of the Canadian market will greatly extend our reach in Canada.”

IronKey Enterprise is available immediately in Canada through CMI.
