1GB Cruzer Profile Biometric USB Flash Drive High Security

The Cruzer Profile is a portable, hi-speed USB 2.0 flash memory storage drive with added personal security capability to safeguard data, images, presentations and other personal information. Fingerprint identification technology embedded in the device helps restrict access to only the designated user of the CruzerProfile. The stylish, compact Cruzer Profile is about the size of a pack of gum measuring at 60mm long, 24mm wide and 14mm in height. With included dual LED’s, one LED indicates USB functionality and data transfer and the second one provides proper status during enrollment and authentication of the biometric fingerprint. The Cruzer Profile authenticates users when a finger when swiped across the device and an embedded identification sensor reads the fingerprint, gives approval and activates the drive. Usage of the Cruzer Profile will not require the loading of any applications on a computer. To provide a high degree of security and tamper protection, these images will not pass through or be placed on the computer at any time.
