Step Description
1 Creating, editing, deleting secure
les
When you click on “Secure Files” in the IronKey
Control Panel, Windows Explorer will open directly to
your secure volume.
All les on your IronKey are strongly encrypted with
military-grade AES encryption. Encrypting les is
as simple as moving them into the secure volume.
Dragging les onto your desktop will decrypt them
on-the-y in hardware. The IronKey gives you the
convenience of working as you normally would with
a regular ash drive, while at the same time providing
strong and “always-on” security.
2Updating device rmware/soft-
ware
The IronKey can securely update its software and
rmware through signed updates that are veried in
hardware. This allows users to keep their devices up-
to-date and protect themselves from future malware
and online threats.
To check for available updates, click the “Check for Up-
dates” button. If an update is available, you can choose
to download and install it by clicking the “Download
Update” button.
