• CryptoStickComparison

This will become a comparison of products similar to the GPF Crypto Stick

• Even FIPS 140-2 Level certificated storage sticks can be broken so easily!

• Look at this presentation where two cryptographic storage sticks get hacked.

• Ironkey: We doubt that their level of security is not that high as Crypto Stick's due to the lack of Common Criteria certificated smart card. Size: 77 x 20 x 9 mm.

• easySafe is an access token allowing to encrypt containers on the computer. Windows only.

• Verbatim SSD Secure Secure ExpressCard is a crypto card in an ExpressCard format. It should provide USB performance.

Potential Criteria

• Key-storage existing? If, which format (X.509/OpenPGP?) Seurity of key-storage?
• crypted Storage integrated? If, how much space (in megabytes)?
• Price in €
• Security Features: (e.g. PIN - entry delay)

• Cetrficates, (e.g.. FIPS, CC, X.509 (-> which Certification Authority?))

• Is security checkable (Open-Source ?) or is reverse - engineering requred or even easy?
• Compactibility (Software)
• Which Software? Which OS is supported? Licensing of Software...
